4 Ton A/C Goodman Unit.
1 Year old.
It was just too large for a rental property.
Please PM me if you are interested,
If this is in the wrong section please move it to the
right forum. Sorry.
IMO this is a bad idea.Good Tebow...I so want to eat your pussy right now!
Anytime you have a unit that was installed improperly to begin with, you up the chances of damaging the unit. Improper ("too big") condensing units are removed after installation for a reason... refrigeration leaks are possible, wiring and contactors can be faulty, if installed and run with smaller evaporator, you run risk of a flooded compressor.... (and replacing a compressor is more expensive than replacing the condensing unit itself)
Unfortunately, there is no way to verify that this unit is in good working condition without hiring a licensed hvac tech to hook it up and run a diagnostics analysis on it. Also, an invoice showing date of install does not mean the unit is one year old. (There is a way to decipher when a condensing unit was manufactured by the serial number)
Good luck....
I recommend scrapping the copper and calling it a day! Originally Posted by Abigail (Source of JOY)

I understand that you believe it was properly done, but the fact if the matter is... if the unit was too big for the house then the likelihood of the wiring being compatabible to each other is slim, this can potentially damage any contactor switches and wiring within the compressor and blow motor. If the condensing unit is not matched properly (size compatible ) with your inside unit (evaporator coils) then there is a possibility of what some techs call flood backs to the compressor. So what I mean by improper installation is all of this^^^Honey you have a very good point. I might just do that if I can not sell it.
My suggestion to you is this... instead of giving it away, scrap it... there is money to be made!! Why do you think so many criminals are stripping units like the one DG posted above (which is a Trane Package unit btw)...copper coils bring big bucks at a junkyard.
