Trane Clean Effects Air Cleaner - Bad Install!

This is a Trane “Clean Effects” Electronic Air Cleaner. This HVAC company who clearly doesn’t believe in “Do the job right, or don’t do it at all” has done it again! This time they sold the customer a Trane Clean Effects with their new HVAC system. One problem though… you can’t get part of the filter out to clean it!!!

Do lemon laws cover items such as home air conditioning units?

  1. It is. It would …
    It is. It would need to be REMOVED to remove that center section of those cleaners. I sure am glad i don’t do residential anymore. Those cleaners are more trouble than they are worth anyway. And so are the XL19i.s What a piece of junk and a sad excuse for variable speed at this day and age. Anything short of inverter technolodgy is not impressive these days. I now realize Trane isn’t what it used to be. Ah, sorry. My rant got away from me.

    After seeing that new Panasonic IQ Drive unit you’re installing, I would not even bother with Trane, LOL! I love Inverter driven motors. Trane’s dual recip XL19i is not very reliable. And it sucks some MAD POWER when it switches compressors under pressure!

    I have been telling my Trane rep that if they don’t do something about the caliber of dealers they sell their products to they will eventually ruin the brand name and all the good dealers they have…including us!

  5. I don’t even think …
    I don’t even think this one needed an offest. I think if the front of the furnace was just 1/4″ more to the left than the rear, causing a SLIGHT angle it would have cleared the door fine and still looked nomral. When I worked for these bozo’s I had to keep my mouth shut to the customer and play stupid. Which was hard to do. I wish TRANE cared but the local Trane reps probably only care about their cut of these installs. I hope they are proud.

  6. What’s up …
    What’s up hackfreehvac, Did you tell the homeowner they could call the ROC and have this reinstalled correctly? Improper access is a violation. God forbid they should have to build an offset plenum instead of having the customer remove their door every time they need to clean the cells! ~ MagicTouchAir

  7. That’s what has to …
    That’s what has to happen. Simple? Not really. It’s kind of bullsh*t to do that twice a year when all they needed to do was move the air cleaner housing 1″ to the left during initial install. Remember, they get $1,000+ for one of those air cleaners! They could at least make it servicable!

    Just take the door off. Simple.

    see shawn i dont hate ya like you think you belive in doing it right as i do.
    but you cant fix the rest of the chain saw chrlies in the world

  10. I would tell the …
    I would tell the manager. He didn;t give a about codes or making it easy for a tech. All he’d say is “quit your whining and djust do the job”. Them sending us techs out for “Quality Control” checks was a facking joke!

    got to love that crap install that would me off i would make them come back and do it right

  12. Just like their …
    Just like their other installs, aye?

  13. The home was …
    The home was probably 15 years old or more. This was a system change out. And to clarify, the door wasn’t too narrow. The Clean Effects just needed to be moved an inch to the left when it was installed. No quality Control! :(

    That’s my new trade mark!:)

  15. Geeze that was …
    Geeze that was pathetic again absolutely no common sense!!! LMAO

  16. Stupid builders, …
    Stupid builders, They expect to shove a furnace & water heater in closets, w/o thinking about SERVICING! The best is when they say to you that “the bi-fold doors come off.”

    Great ending, didn’t expect that. LOL
