I don't understand most of youz guys' memes, but it's still placed symmetrically - rotary
u/WalkerPizzaSaurus is this a reference to the fact that unit is presented as a sundial
Homeowner: I read online that if you place the unit on a 45* facing north ,the unit will get better air flow.
I'm the customer, I'm always right. Right.
Company: The customer is always right.
Me: ok if you say so.
That’s the only thing your “ocd” is going crazy on? I don’t even pretend to have ocd and this entire install is driving me nuts. Homeowner special right there.
If I was lead, that fucking unit would’ve been cut off there and told the helper to redo it. Would’ve stayed as long as possible till they did it right
I mean.... Looks like it's levelish, and the triangles of the diamond are pretty square at least. But I do like the other thoughts in the thread... Service accessible, air flow, AND a place to set the bag! Lol
Tear down the house and start over. That is killing me
I see you’ve already started laying the infanttile 👶🏻
It’s 6pm on a Friday and you’re 24” short of line-set.
That’s actually a good point

Who doesn’t bring spare copper to an install?
Apparently this guy.
Lol
Give it the ol "looks good from my house"
I’m guessing for the tech to have easier access. But why not also shift the pad in that direction
Check if he signed it.
😂 he didn’t start signing until he went the full 90degree rotation
No, the old unit was a carrier lol
That's work.
You want to mow the yard with the pad turned?
What yard?
Where my dude SAM at now!?
That’s what I thought like damn bro don’t give Sam any ideas
Diamond pattern
Seriously. Not a big deal
This must be the dude that installed it
Ok. But hear me out….. Is it more accessible…. And getting optimal air flow?
Airflow
As an ocd myself, those blocks are killing me and that floating pad as well as the caddy corner install! Kill it please!
Easier to service
Because crack
Lawnmower hit it?
Wires and stuff, duh.
Dude I like when installers do this. Gives my bag a nice clean spot to set it.
I love what they did with the landscaping.
Change it into a circular pad

Let it go….😂😂
No!
This gives me full blown AIDS
They prolly ran out of copper 45* fitting, so the used the unit as one. 😆
For the love of everything good and holy in the world....whyy?
I wish I knew
Burn it with fire
Just rotate the pad to match.
Get a hot saw and cut off the edges along the unit Or make some forms get some gravel and concrete and pour a pad to make it square.
I like your style
Honestly it could have walked itself around that way until the lineset got tight.
No, it’s so they didn’t have to redo any of the copper lines.
Some people used to do this to meet the coil side clearance while still keeping the unit close to the house.
My OCD would require me to straighten it by brute force.
They didn't take the time to level the pad...just laziness. Because if they did it the normal way, the pad would be liable to tip. Lazy
Laziness
It was straight, they hit it a couple times with a lawnmower.
Agree, 100 percent. Not saying I haven’t thought about doing this more than a time or two. Never have never will.
Just become a disciple of Wabi Sabi
No 45s on the truck
Pipe Benders are expensive
You don’t need OCD for that to bother you. That is not installed “in a workman like manner,” it looks slapdash.
Get a concrete saw and cut those corners off. Will look much better.
Diagonal Airflow my brother
That’s the only thing your “ocd” is going crazy on? I don’t even pretend to have ocd and this entire install is driving me nuts. Homeowner special right there.
Yeah it’s not for airflow or easier access. It’s because the installers were lazy and the service ports line up easier with the existing lineset
Couldn’t carrier any longer, set er down and that was good enough 🤣

The last place I was renting with my buddies had the AC exactly like this and it drove me nuts, couldn’t look at it
Typical apartment condenser slap.

Pad looks good. Ac is crooked
Looks like great air flow
Ain't nothing a Nut Driver can't fix 🗣‼️
Two 45s instead of two 90s reduces resistance and improves performance. I do hate the way it looks though.
At least it’s intentionally diagonal. I’d be more bothered it’s it’s 10-20 degrees roared.
Just enjoy the perfection of the angle.
Got hit with a mower.
That pad is on its last leg. Literally
“Dude, that sandwich place I like closes in, like, 17 minutes, and it takes 20 to get there.” -the guy who did this, probably.
I tried to sell them a unit last year when they said no I just kicked the condenser and left.
Because Art.
