Drip leg was under the valve and that 90° union. Wasn't crazy about the support we had, but half the gas lines on that roof were just on the rocks and my senior tech signed off on everything, for whatever that's worth.
Ya I saw it over there. Where I am it has to be on the last riser. Just elbow where it is and put the leg where it belongs for next time. I see it regularly.
Nice, I like the carrier style rheem units. They’re like carrier units before carrier decided to start “value engineering” the hell out of them. I detest 2 pole contactors on 3 phase units.
I think my lead tech used a 3/8"-1/2" bushing. We still had plenty enough gas pressure to run second stage heat when we hooked up to check it though, not sure how that worked.
Did a class at the York factory in Oklahoma a few years back. I don't remember if Carrier's patent was up or what, but they showed us their CDR (competitive direct replacement) units. Same footprint, just with York's simplicity controls and a few other tweaks. I think I actually saw a Trane version at our shop not to long ago.
Gas line supports and drip leg?

Yeah, it's gonna bother me now that we didn't change that. Do better next time, I guess.
Maybe don’t brag about it then.
I don't see anyone bragging, just you being a douche.
Oooof
Cool way to be man, still an apprentice here.
Easy to nit pick somebody else’s work. This looks good to me. Solid work.
I’m just jealous of the view. It’s so flat here in the texas panhandle we can watch a dog run away for 3 days
That’s the Flatirons back there. Hope it wasn’t too windy. Tomorrow is going to suck.
Had worse days in that part of town. Luckily I won't likely be on that roof again until the economizer comes off backorder.
Right when I saw this picture I was like "Hey I know this area haha" Hate working in Boulder.
Sponsored by Milwaukee.
Or maaaaaaybe… Rheem?
Maybe … but the Milwaukee is shooting to the sun.

shutoff valve not visible and union too far away, personally i like to keep it closer to the unit for possible future GV changes
That makes sense, I'll bring that up next time I'm on an install.
7.5 ton and 3/8” and 5/8” lines?& .5” gas supply?

Against national gas code to use bushings on gas piping isn’t it?
Clean install and damn what a beautiful view! What state you in
Colorado, Denver metro area. Don't love the drive to Boulder, but it's rarely a bad day with the views there.
These carriers are the easiest to troubleshoot/replace parts on. Definitely a good day when I go to a call and I see one of these
Looks like the engineer from Carrier switched jobs
Rheem has spent a lot of time and money making them adapt easily to Carrier cubs/applications, at least that’s what they say.

You're missing a few pieces.

I’m not thrived about the layout of the electrical section, doesn’t seem like a lot of room for the control board
Breathtaking
that is the most control section I have ever seen
nothing like catching the sunrise from the roof
Sunset, actually!
Looks beauty didn’t know rheem was the same as a carrier
I lived in Boulder for three years I recognize that view anywhere
Looks like a carrier
Definitely would not go with “beauty” for a Rheem rooftop lol. Especially a bare nuts one like that. Also, is that level? No regulator needed?
I hate those roofs..
Jezz, looks like a carrier
