Hey there, and welcome! I'm a bit unclear what your question is, so maybe you can clarify. Are you looking to start an hvac service business? If so, residential, or commercial? I found that with my residential hvac business, it just took time to get off the ground, and I found that alot of my experience came from going to service calls and just figuring stuff out. Sometimes that meant youtubing or calling a friend, and THAT is where experience comes from. Also setting aside money for taxes. People go out on their own and immediately buy a new truck and new tools, so my advice would be to do that at the rate your business is growing and generating income. Hope this helps! Feel free to expound and I can give a more informed answer. Best, Dave

One warm room
Hello everyone! I’ve got one room that is consistently warm. The air duct is getting cold air, but I have to keep the door open to the hallway to keep it from getting warm. There is no return in that room. Do y’all think installing a return will help? It’ll cost thousands. Thanks in advance!

Absolutely it will help. If the warm air has no where to escape then that makes sense. But is it worth spending thousand? Only you can say.
Leak sealers
Just wondering if anyone has opinions about putting in leak sealers to prevent leaks in the first place

Hey there, just like in automotive applications, leak sealers can cause more problems then they will fix. Also it would have to be a very very small micro leak. But what can happen is the leak seal can clog pistons and txv's and cause bigger problems. If the system is getting replaced soon, that would be the only instance where I might recommend a leak sealer to get them through one more summer.
My air conditioner
I have my air conditioner that turns on, but I know it’s not blowing any cold air in my house. I put the digital thermometer and it only reads 80° when I have my unit set to cool. I made a video but I can’t tell what is possibly wrong.

Yes absolutely. If it has a low pressure switch. But if that was the case the compressor wouldn't be running.

@Blair Thomas Yes, that would mean you have a leak somewhere if it is low. I apologize for the confusion there.
