About john t. borgman
Expertise
I work days, so I can only answer early in the day or later in the evening, I live in Oregon. I have been so good at all the other area's of hvac, I am probably the only hvac guy that does not know oil. ( lol ) I am very well versed in gas, electric and heat pumps and will only answer residential applications. I have been known the past decade or so, by my employers as the guy you send when no one can figure it out. Trouble shooting is my special. I understand the physics behind air flow, refrigerants and electricity. I understand programmable t-stats, zone controls, economizers, fossil fuel kits and the engineering thought process in the wiring and construction of residential equipment

Experience
I was lucky enough to start in this field over 25 years ago as an installer, for a company that installed the best duct systems I have ever seen, even to this day. The best ,as far as understanding the way air really flows through a duct system, from the return air to the very last supply register . They also had great pride and the duct work was put in, not only to last 50 years, but to look exceptional. Then as I started doing service work, I was again fortunate that I found a 3 year engineering class being put on be a man that was the educational director for the Entire united states for a society called " the Refrigeration Service Engineering Society " And for the next 3 years I schooled at night and practiced what I learned during the day, a great advantage over schooling and then trying to remember it years later.. Versed in duct design manual J heat gain/loss calculations. Also experience in wine rooms and indoor swimming pool hvac & humidity controls

Publications
I have 2 inventions that have gone through the process and been recorded at the National Institute of Standards and Technology from start to finish and thus been invited to national innovation workshops by the dept. of Commerce and the dept. of Energy. They are waste heat recovery devices that N.I.S.T approved as valid and am currently looking for marketing partners to get this product into the hands of consumers and make a BIG difference in Energy savings for every Household and Eatery and take a big bite in the the peak hours power consumption that face our Utilities companies.

Education/Credentials
factory training in Lennox ,Rheem, Ruud ,Trane, Tempstar ,Carrier, Day&Night, Payne, Bryant, Coleman, Intertherm, Ultra boilers, Unico, Mitsubishi,Sanyo, Taylor, Nicewonger, . Associates degree in Refrigeration Engineering. Certified with Energy Department, Check-me Program, have N.A.T.E. certifications in gas, a/c & heat pump. Teach and apprentice at every company I work at.

Heating, Air Conditioning, Fridge, HVAC - rv a/c no leaking water on outside of trailer


Expert: john t. borgman - 7/13/2009

Question
QUESTION: my rv a/c is not leaking water on the out side of the trailer what could be the problem

ANSWER: Joey,
 It will take a lot more info to answer a question like that.  Does it turn on? does it work? Does it cool?  Do you change your filter? Does it leak inside your trailer?  Does it leak inside your floor?

---------- FOLLOW-UP ----------

QUESTION: Yes it does turn on and seems to be working there is no visable water inside or outside on the ground. NO leakage in the roof or anything.

Answer
There are a lot of things that can cause it to not condense water from the air, including a little low on charge, wrong fan or speed of fan, metering device problem......
 If it is less than 20 degrees difference between the air going in from your conditioned space to the cool air being supplied, you might have it looked at before it becomes a problem or you damage the compressor.
