Sunday morning in the shop with Mikey Pipes… building the MP SPD-01 Surge Protection Device from scratch.This is raw, uncut, unedited footage from the Mikey Pipes Uncensored channel as Mikey walks through assembling a custom-built HVAC surge protection setup designed for service technicians, HVAC contractors, and anyone serious about protecting expensive equipment from power issues.In this video, Mikey builds two MP SPD-01 units, explains the wiring layout, shows how the disconnect, surge protection, digital power monitor, amperage reading, WAGO connectors, 10-gauge whip, and load-side wiring all come together — and asks the big question:Should the breaker shut off only the load, or should it also kill power to the surge protector and power monitor?Drop your thoughts in the comments.This unit is being offered for a limited time to subscribers and viewers for only $175 shipped as a donation to Mikey Pipes Philanthropy. Mikey is donating his time and the equipment, and 100% of the proceeds go to charity.Interested in an MP SPD-01?Email: mike@mikeypipes.comPayment options for MP-SPD-01 donations:PayPal: mike@mikeypipes.comZelle: office@pipedoc.netVenmo: @PipeDoctorCashApp: $mikeypipesny✅ Limited Edition 2025 Mikey Pipes Poster Available NowOnly $42.50 deliveredIncludes: 5 stickers, pen, card & magnet100% of proceeds go to charityFor HVAC service, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, heat pumps, boiler repair, ductless mini splits, water heaters, and electrical troubleshooting on Long Island:Pipe Doctor Home Services📞 516-348-6300🌐 pipedoc.netServing Long Island, Nassau County, Queens, Woodmere, Hewlett, Cedarhurst, Lawrence, Rockville Centre, Valley Stream, Lynbrook, Garden City, Oceanside, and surrounding areas.Want to become an official ACiQ dealer or private label brand?👉 Visit: https://aciq.com/mikeypipesLearn how to get access to ACiQ heat pumps, inverter systems, ductless mini splits, extreme cold climate heat pumps, HVAC equipment, and contractor dealer opportunities.This video is for HVAC technicians, service techs, contractors, apprentices, electricians, and anyone interested in surge protection, HVAC controls, power monitoring, amperage readings, 240V equipment protection, and real-world shop-built solutions.Built by Mikey Pipes.Made in the USA.For the trades.For the subscribers.For charity.Comment below:Would you install the MP SPD-01 on your HVAC system?Please LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE to help support the channel, Mikey Pipes Philanthropy, and the trades.#HVAC #SurgeProtection #MikeyPipesChapters00:00 Sunday Morning With Mikey Pipes01:20 Heading to the Shop03:00 Why Mikey Is Building the MP SPD-0104:35 12 Gauge vs 10 Gauge Wire Talk06:45 Shop Updates & Maintenance Agreement Count08:25 Subscriber Milestone & Channel Growth10:00 Introducing the MP SPD-01 Surge Protection Device11:30 Parts Breakdown: Breaker, Power Monitor & Surge Protector13:00 Drilling and Preparing the Enclosure14:35 Installing the 10-Gauge Liquid Tight Whip16:00 Wiring L1, L2, Load, Ground & Power Monitor18:30 How the Circuit Breaker and Surge Protector Work20:15 Full Walkthrough of the Finished Unit22:00 Building the Second MP SPD-0124:30 Digital Power Meter and Amperage Reading Setup26:00 Should the Breaker Kill Everything?27:35 Final Thoughts: $175 Shipped for Charity28:45 How to Order & Support Mikey Pipes PhilanthropyMusic from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/Track Name *Fly Away

They Installed 4 Mismatched HVAC Systems… You Can’t Make This Up

It’s Friday. Love me Fridays.In this uncut Mikey Pipes Uncensored video, I’m starting the day at Pipe Doctor Home Services on Long Island, NY, shipping out some Mikey Pipes goodies, talking about the nonprofit, and breaking down a real-world HVAC situation that every service technician and homeowner should hear.We’re talking about mismatched HVAC systems, leaking R-410A equipment, customer pricing questions, dual-fuel heat pump setups, hydronic heating, and why cutting corners just to hit a cheaper number is never the right answer.The big takeaway?
