    Didn't have to pay for this job and had I charged them I wouldn't have got it. BTW...the crane was on their dime.

    Yes they are. The HVAC guys took care of the Freon during removal so I didn't have to worry about it.

    That customer was a result of picking up a dryer and leaving a couple of cards with someone who passed my card on to this HVAC guy. He would rather spend his time doing what he does best and so I pick up his stuff from his job sites. Having a numbers of years working construction definitely helps with jobs like this.

    After you cut off the ends do u then cut the copper loops off. I do but my yard told me if I didn't want to they would buy them at electric motor price..23 / lb. I haven't weighed them to compare. Do yall have an opinion?
