That ductwork looks like total shit. In fact what the fuck is that image? There's so many things wrong here I think I'm going to have an aneurysm.

>massive fucking whole-house dehumidifier
>dehum return ducts aren't even taped, let alone ziptied
>funky metal plenums that go directly into the attic floor, so likely wall cavity returns (terrible)

It gets worse the longer I look at it dude what the fuck. Look in the background, check out the bathroom exhaust fan vent tubes. The main condensate PVC pipe isn't sloped properly either. Or hung properly. And none of the ducts are hung properly either. Look at that one in the back that goes up and down like a fucking caterpillar. FUCK I'm sweating just looking at this shit. This is the kind of nightmare that the moment you see it, it curses you for good. Total teardown. Fuck
>>517712580
That's why the very first thing I mentioned was the AHU being fucking VERTICAL in an attic. I get it, in light commercial apps with lots of overhead room it makes sense, in some scenarios. But a residential attic? The condensate trays that come with these coils are fucking reversible, it takes like 3 minutes to zip the coil out, re-orient the tray and slap her back in there. This shit is pants on head retarded

They’re all made by bots or mods
Try making a thread see how long it stays up
You used to be able to make threads on multiple boards and have them fill up
Now retard threads are spammed because wasting your time is the goal
I honestly wish bad things on the people who run this place and I don’t normally say this
But, that goes for any website with traffic
It’s all gamed bullshit now
A joke and a pathetic imitation of anything legitimate
Complete and total fraud

Everything in the OP and worse. They just ran the duct all over the fucking boards so I can't even use my attic. And when people stay over they think someone is breaking in when the AC kicks on because the duct fucking flops around.

At the very least as long as it's not so fucked that the ducts are dripping water, you can live with a poorly done duct system. Dude I shit you not, I climbed into an attic 2 years ago where every. Fucking. Duct in the entire attic was pouring, and I mean pouring water from condensation. If you smacked them it would let loose a shower of droplets into the insulation. Their ceilings were destroyed.

Some hillbillies from Georgia slapped a 4.5 ton system into a 1,200 sq ft, leaky beach house on the coast. Every duct was too small or too big, they used a massive metal central supply plenum and didn't tape or insulate any of the junctions, so this huge metal tube was also sweating and dripping water. The ducts weren't pulled properly so the insulation would scrunch up and it would sweat that way too.

I tore out every fucking bit of that system and redid it, and the fucking thing STILL tried to drip water until I gave it some love and attention. 4 months later, a very stressed out but happy customer. I told him I couldn't believe what I was seeing when I first went up there.

There is a very particular code for how to hang flex duct and almost no installers ever follow it to the letter because it's a pain in the ass to do, but this is how you do it properly.

Secure the hanging strap to the outside of an adjacent roof joist (DO NOT NAIL INTO ROOF PANEL. JOISTS ONLY!). Loop the hang strap around the duct once, and gently pull it tight up to the other joist. Use the looped strap to adjust exactly where the duct needs to sit so it's straight, level and pulled tight. No scrunches in insulation! Gentle 90 degree turns. Secure the duct once per every two joists of distance.

I almost guarantee those mexicans didn't do this. It's totally possible for a homeowner to do it DIY, but i will warn you it will be a giant PITA

>>517713883
That's a roof that needs to be rebuilt after 20 years too.
Aspenite for roofing is fucking garbage no matter what shit they use to glue it.
The gaps between the trusses are fucking huge. I hope this isn't a where with snow or the owners are gonna be paying a grand or two every winter.
Guy is also crumpling the edges of the boards he's standing on and his nail work is sloppy.

Because by 2017 not only did they realize their efforts were in vain and actually increasing the memetic output, their paids shills were literally killing themselves as per share blue
So they decided to simply try to drown out the signal with white noise and utilize a worth caste of slave creatures whom they did not care if they killed themselves along with bots to

Sad part is the icylene (closed cell spray foam) insulation is actually fucking incredible and was done properly (by a different company of course). That house could have a really efficient setup, instead they got the fucking ductopus.

The one and only positive, if by some god forsaken black magic miracle the system works decent enough, is that it'll kill compressors quick enough for them to constantly get new condensers under the manufacturer's warranty. Kek

I have a friend who runs a plumbing/HVAC company and also owns a few properties. He has HVAC shit jammed up in the attics of his rentals (not as bad as in the pic but similar). It's so the two apartments in the house each have their own electric and heat. He doesn't care how inefficient it is because the tenant pays the utilities.

Oh, whoops, I should have clarified there. The problem is not that the AHU is IN the attic. It's that it's stood up vertically in the attic.

As long as a system is installed properly, it can exist up in a 120 degree attic with no problem whatsoever. In fact, the hotter it is, the better. It's mild days, like 74 degrees + rain that really tax whether a system is installed and designed properly.

On a mild day, an oversized + leaky system will turn the house into a swamp cooler. Sickly, humid air. Then it'll sweat condensation everywhere.
