Part 2 of a mess.

I have shown this before. Ducts laying on insulation WILL create water. It is like putting 2 coolers on top of each other, water will create quickly. As you can see with these pictures the ducts are touching everything, and with the high humidity this year my customer has water stains EVERYWHERE in her home.
Also because the unit had a "butt plate" return plenum on it, the air handler sweats too. The installing company thought taking insulation from the ceiling and shoving it in the emergency drain pan and under the air handler unit will help. Again insulation on insulation makes more moisture. The bottom of the air handler is rusted out and the emergency pan its on its way, not to mention the mold growing and a few rodents starting homes and family's in there.

This is were the water is after I moved the duct over a few feet.


Trash....Trash.....Trash.... I don't need to remove any stinkin trash. On top off all this they left all the trash in the attic. A good van or two worth of trash.
The worst part of this whole situation is...........................THIS SYSTEM IS ONLY 3 1/2 YEARS OLD!
Not a very long time for a $8,000. investment.
We need inspections/permits for HVAC change outs in Martin County!!!!!!
Stay cool and have fun
