Like for like 80%
Here we have an American Standard Furnace 80% that was replaced with a new American Standard Furnace 80%. What we call "like for like". It is by far one of the easiest types of replacements, especially if its located in the garage.
Older Trane Furnace
Now in my opinion this furnace should have lasted a lot longer. One issue that caused a short life was a poorly sized filter system, a small filter gets clogged way to fast making it difficult for the owner to keep up with and then eventually causing high limit failures(over heating). Also if the furnace had been vented with double wall pipe instead of galvanized single wall pipe, there would have been less internally corrosion (white dust) that clogs up pressure ports and causes excessive wear on the inducer. We find this a lot in very cold garages.

Here you see the new American Standard furnace and a Bradford White hot water tank installed. The new equipment is vented with type B double wall venting that will eliminate internal corrosion. We also added a Honeywell filter system.

And as you can see the Honeywell F100 4" fits perfectly on top and usually provides annual protection but I do recommend checking every 6 months.

Pulse To American Standard
When I was much younger and still learning about this trade I was installing many Lennox Pulses. The foreman made sure we where loaded up and ready to go before starting the furnace. Reason being ... THEY ARE LOUD.
Lennox Pulse Furnace
I remember we use to place bets to see whether or not the customer would phone the shop before we got back. And if the unit was installed in the home ... we seldom get out of the driveway before the complaining started.

Pulse to American Standard
My customer called me about adding AC to their existing system, once I explained how much they would be saving on labor by installing a new American Standard furnace at the same time they where sold. With a little transition work we got rid of that old freight train pulse and installed an American Standard 95% single stage furnace.
Ductless In Mount Vernon
To think it wasn’t that long ago we didn’t have the Ductless line set covers that we have today. They really help clean up the install. We use to use gutter material found at a local hardware store, but these new covers offer better protection and more fittings to choose from.
Daikin Ductless Heat Pump
Here you see us installing a Daikni ductless unit above a window and running a refer line set from that unit to the outdoor Daikin unit. As you can see we actually penetrated the side wall of the home above the window. We actually use a wall sleeve to go through the wall. Sealing up the ductless and wall to the weather.

The cover is made of a type of PVC, its 2 piece, easy to install and is paint-able. It is a little expensive but well worth the price.

Ductless For Mobile Home
Once in awhile we get a ductless project that is a little out of the norm, here we have older well kept mobile home that actually has some rough cut timber added into the interior and exterior of the home
Ductless For Mobile Home
Running our line sets tight against the siding would have been almost impossible. So we simple ran the line set on top of the trim down to the Ductless Daikin unit. Actually turned out pretty good.

The indoor Daikin unit was positioned centered between to timber columns, making for a very clean installation.

Going Ductless In Sedro Woolley
Daikin Mini Split Indoor #2782
On this particular project (Ductless In Sedro Woolley) we actually installed the Daikin ductless indoor unit in the center of the home, a more difficult installation for a ductless but in this application it was the best location in the home. Here in the northwest we have to deal with rain and when the weather gets a little on the wet side we usually like to pop up a canvas/tent to help keep us and our work dry.
Ductless Mini Split Outdoor #2782
Unfortunately this is one of those projects where I failed to get an picture of the indoor unit. If I happen to get back to this ductless project in the near future I will snap a picture.

Ductless Daikin Project #2781
As you can see we sat the Daikin outdoor unit on a pre-formed pad and then ran the refer line set up and into the side of the home.
Ductless Daikin Project #2781
The indoor unit actually installed right next to the exterior wall, so the refer line set came through the side of the home and right into the unit.

New Mini Split Sedro Woolley
This project brought a few challenges, like the outdoor ductless Daikin unit being located around the corner from in indoor unit.
Mini Split Sedro Woolley
Fortunately we use a product that can wrap around outside and inside corners. Hiding the refer lines and control wiring. Really adding a clean professional look to the project.
Daikin Mini Split Sedro Woolley
The indoor Daikin unit was installed above an exterior window on one end of the home. Pointing down the middle of the home seemed to work out the best for our customer.
