  • On the road again!

    That should be “In the air again … almost.” Flying out of Tampa this afternoon for a 10 day trip that will take me to five states in the process. I rarely blog about my trips, but I decided that this time I would have some fun doing this. As many of you know I am a Technical Field Manager for HVACi (HVAC Investigators) which is part of Consolidated Claims Group IQ. We do Cause of Loss investigations for most of the major insurance companies in the country when there is a claim regarding anything HVAC/R, electrical, or electronics. There are four of us who are Technical Field Managers, and during the busy season one of our roles is to go help the local technicians get caught up when they fall behind, provide support and training to our technician base, provide technical support to our processors and report writers, and do loss evaluations on the large commercial claims which require special handling.

    Getting Ready – Tampa International Airport Gate E75

    So, once this thunderstorm clears and we can leave the gate, I am on my way to Cincinnati to start the work week.

  • Firmware Update Success

    As I am getting ready to leave on another business trip I decided to make sure that the firmware on my DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone was up to date. Then, because I do not trust developers, I always test. It was a nice sunny afternoon in Babson Park, FL. Enjoy a few 360 Panoramic views. Stay tuned and see what else comes your direction this week.

    If you click on any of these pictures you will be able to move the 360 panorama around with your trackpad, mouse, or smartphone movement.

  • What happened to the old site?

    Welcome to my re-organized WordPress site. Because of an opportunity that I had been waiting for I closed the HVAC/R portion of Christopher Molnar, LLC as continuing it would have been a conflict of interest with my new position. I am now working as a Technical Field Manager for HVAC Investigators, part of CCGIQ. This change of business model was effective on March 31, 2021.

    To make it clear we are no longer doing any HVAC/R field (inspection, repair, installation) services. The training portion of my business through YouTube and training.christophermolnar.com remains untouched and will continue to be updated. There will be some additional HVAC/R related courses available shortly and the announcements will be posted here.

    I am going to continue to use this site to share important aspects of HVAC/R, Life, Education, and just general musings here and there. I may also occasionally surprise you with drone footage as well as some pictures from my business travels.

    I love teaching, I love training, and I will continue to do that through this platform and through my YouTube channel. I will provide links to various YouTube training videos here, as well as on my channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOn2qyWDn4CzkHtFofSbL-g

    I have comments restricted on many pages to logged in users, and all comments are moderated before being posted. WordPress sites have been spammed frequently and moderation allows me to censor what is posted on my site.

    Thank you for your continue support!

    The stash arrived! Of course it was left next to the road rather than at the front door, miracle it was still there. And the ants didn’t get it this time.

    I hate waiting on company’s 4 hour windows to come and complete a job. We have 1 hour left in the window for the technician to show up and complete the work (that is supposed to take 1 hour). I have places to be and schedules to keep.

    She makes me go out into the yard, in a robe, to go get her…… I get to her and she runs back to the door and looks at me, like “what took you so long?”

    The story of our walks. We are on Leona time. And anyone that has ever tried to get Leona to do anything will understand that.

    Leona blue leash that the rest of us are waiting on freezing our butts off.

    It’s cloudy and windy out. And the temperature is dropping. We got up to 66 and it is now down to 59. I guess someone up North is leaking Winter to Florida.
