Goodman High Efficiency HVAC Install Time-Lapse (Click here for High quality version) from Luke Skaff on Vimeo.
Here is my first time lapse ever, go to full screen mode for better quality.
This time lapse of the installation of a 46,000/32,000 BTU, 95% efficiency, 2-Stage Burner, 1,200 CFM Variable Speed furnace with a 15 SEER 2 Ton goodman condenser.
Installed by my brother and myself, we are not HVAC technicians just extreme DIYers. We hired a HVAC contractor to come out and handle all the refridgerant work to be legal. This included recovering the R-22 from the old system and then braze, vacuum, and charge the new line set with R-410A.
Used a Canon Powershot SX10IS with CHDK firmware, set to manual exposure (f/5.6, 1/3sec, ISO 200), custom white balance. Added an el-cheapo $8.00 0.45x wide angle fisheye screw-on lens to capture whole scene in a tight attic space.
Used Vdub to compile shots into AVI then used quicktime pro to convert the AVI to MP4.
Total frames: 7770
Frame Rate: 26fps (to make music fit)
Shoot at 1 frame ever 5-30secons depending on the level of activity. Total install took a couple of days of work.
Music: Serphonic – 5am
