HVAC Techs_ Would You Install THIS Surge Protection Box_

This $175 HVAC Device Could Save a $3,000 Inverter Board (Techs Need to See This)

One sealed box.One careless mistake.And one expensive lesson every HVAC contractor, apprentice, and service technician needs to hear.In this uncut and unedited episode of Mikey Pipes Uncensored, I explain why a former employee would be fired all over again after throwing away a critical HVAC component that cost hundreds of dollars to replace.We also take a deep dive into my latest HVAC protection project featuring the Mikey Pipes MP-SPD-01 Surge Protection & Power Monitoring Device and discuss why today's inverter-driven HVAC equipment needs more than just basic surge protection.Whether you install mini splits, heat pumps, central air conditioning systems, or commercial HVAC equipment, this is a conversation every technician and contractor should hear.Today's inverter systems contain expensive inverter boards, communication modules, ECM motors, variable-speed compressors, and sensitive electronics that can be destroyed by power surges, brownouts, voltage fluctuations, utility issues, and electrical abnormalities.If you're installing modern HVAC equipment without proper electrical protection, you're gambling with your customer's investment.In this video:✅ HVAC apprentice mistakes that cost real money✅ Why attention to detail matters in the trades✅ ACiQ ductless mini split training display upgrades✅ MP-SPD-01 Surge Protection Device overview✅ Power monitoring vs surge protection explained✅ Protecting inverter-driven HVAC systems✅ Why every HVAC contractor should rethink electrical protection✅ ACiQ dealer opportunity discussion✅ Behind-the-scenes HVAC shop talkIf you're an HVAC technician, installer, apprentice, contractor, or trade school student, this video is for you.📍 LONG ISLAND HVAC SERVICEPipe Doctor Home Services, Inc.📍 1010 Central AvenueWoodmere, NY 11598📞 516-348-6300🌐 https://www.pipedoc.netServing Nassau County, Suffolk County, Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan, Staten Island and surrounding areas.Residential & Commercial HVAC Service, Repair, Maintenance & Replacement.🔥 BECOME AN ACIQ DEALERInterested in becoming an ACiQ Dealer?No dealer fees.

HVAC Techs_ Would You Install THIS Surge Protection Box_

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
