hackfreehvac - Invidious

hackfreehvac

I am an HVAC/R journeyman technician in the Phoenix, AZ area. This area is infested with HVAC hacks, especially in the residential HVAC side of the business.
Over the past 20 years of being in this area I have collected many pictures and videos of the hackfest problem in our area which I have shared on youtube.
Most of my new videos will be "how to's" or otherwise show n tell with the occasional findings of some hackery.
I am also a "Geek" who's assorted hobbies include DIY automotive and electronics which will be featured here as well from time to time.
