Contact Ted Cruz- Senator Cruz can you please ask for a special prosecutor for a few of the poorest homeowners in Texas? Maybe even the DOJ or FTC or EPA? Anyone?
Lots of the poorest homeowning families in Texas are facing this because they
are told from day one that it is normal. From top official HVAC companies to
home manufacturers. It is all called normal. But in mobile homes only. That
might help to cover the bogus reason for ever saying “legal” in mobile homes
“only” in Texas “only”?
Suggested Law: We are not allowed the air laws that congress made through EPA.
This is what happened to my family because Ancient laws are still in effect and
obeyed with proof showing how wrong the laws really are. Wife must use inhaler
now and never smoked etc.. My grandson has been here since his birth and has
breathing problems that he got here. The future problems will be that of
asbestos because it was the lowest grade insulation allowed by Texas laws for
exteriors. The main concern for me now is the fact that we all breathed it for
ten years while all made excuses to cover up what they thought was their “plan”
for mobile homes HVAC and laws that could be omitted just to make sure as
another excuse to do nothing. The long run is what has me so worried. It must be
just like asbestos and will kill us all. But later on just like asbestos? I
don’t know but with what I discovered here hidden in insulation below my floor
will cause exactly what asbestos does. I complained to every one possible back
in 2000 that it was not normal. It never slowed down or lessened at all. I would
change filters every day and it would not make any difference. I complained so
much back them that Action Aire gave me the new mobile home division of TDLR.
They sent inspector here with camera. He took pictures of it all. All except
where the problem was coming from. TDLR said mobile home division can not work
on a case that concerns A/C. They took over and they said it is normal for
mobile homes to have excessive dust. That was to cover the BS filter set-up.
They never came here at all to make the investigation that got started by a
division that can not do the case. They took all info I had back then and called
it “legal in mobile homes only”. They all thought they were covering the bogus
laws. Just because of the pictures that a MHD inspector took. They all thought
it was their plan at work so simply dismissed it because they know that they are
the CAUSE and CREATOR of HVAC problems in “mobile homes only” I do not know how
to get help but I will find it somewhere. Can you please look into this and call
anytime. I had a few missed calls and messages deleted. I am sorry for not
having sooner contact. Here is one of the many letters that people like our
officials have gotten. It explains some of it but not the details of how wrong
this is and how easy to prove just that with TDLR’s own books and web sites? Are
you sure we do not need a little more honest regulations here? It is really too
bad that all eyes here are closed to what is happening right under their noses?
But who cares? It does not have any thing to do with their families lives or
future lives of their grandchildren? I know it is election troubles and all the
slander that is tried comes out now. I have been caught in the middle of this
since 2000. Not one company or state office is able to defend the bogus laws
created to create what? For who? I don’t know or
understand why such a thing is allowed to continue? I do not care just like the
rest of you. I do care that my family breathed insulation particles while all
made excuses to COVER UP THE BOGUS LAWS created for “mobile homes only” clean
air to be eliminated completely with one in-action of our state? So here it is
once again. Plead with Mr. Abbott to at least consider opening the case I keep
filing with the Atty. General’s office and complaint forms etc. If you can
please? My family breathed insulation dust for years because out dated laws were
being followed. Wronged by obeying ancient laws that cause harm. LAWS THAT make
it legal to completely omit work and parts but only in a families home that
purchased a manufactured home. The same family who bought and paid for a correct
HVAC system that ended up sabotaged legally. A Concealed Weapon in use? A law
that places a weapon when and where desired. A weapon that is legal to use. A
weapon that is :specialized” to attack “only” the specified targets. or Only the
“legal targets” A weapon that is IMPOSSIBLE to use on “ANY OTHER RESIDENCE”.
LAWS PROTECT THOSE RESIDENCES from it being able to happen. . A legal weapon
that cost nothing to “place in action”. A legal weapon that has no cost to
“maintain”. A legal weapon that requires no cost to start or carry through with
the guaranteed slow destruction. A legal weapon that requires not one piece of
materials be used. A legal weapon that never misfires. A legal weapon that never
misses it’s segregated targets. A legal weapon that is guaranteed to work every
time it is placed into use. My last contact with state official who is also had
to follow depression era laws for mobile homes only. Because it was the law. He
said he could do nothing at all about it. Your logo is Simplicity? Convenience?
Efficiency? I don’t think any of those are available for problems that deserve
truthful answers. Guaranteed Health hazards that no one can deny. Created
mechanical failures that no one can deny. Not one person in the entire world can
come up with a single thing to say that is correct in any way about the
insulation dust. Or anything good or correct about the legal “look like”
filtering system that is guaranteed to cause damages. #1 rule, Clean Air in. The
rule and code for many trades. “THE” #1 Rule of all HVAC businesses and
manufacturers is clean air in, clean air out. .The legal in mobile home only
method makes that impossible to be achieved. It is impossible to have a sealed
system. #1 rule of all A/C companies of must have clean air into equipment is
broken immediately. Because it is impossible to filter any part of the entire
intake area. The health hazards that are guaranteed is just one of the other
side effects of not installing equipment correctly. Here are some facts to keep
I had no idea what to do about the discovered missing tie-in. Discovered while
replacing parts that were damaged from the filter set-up. Please give me a lie
detector for any of this or more? If people get out of murder with it give me
one for truth. I had to complain about the filters because no one thought it
could be anything else except the faulty filter system at work. Doing what it is
designed for. It is guaranteed to cause and create problems. What would you do
if your family breathed insulation for 10 years? “it’s legal”, but in mobile
homes “only”, as the one and only reason it was able to occur. Just one true
opinion with facts from any L&R about why it is “illegal” every where else to
use tape as metal duct hanger and tie-in. A true opinion with facts about Just
the health hazards” of the filter set-up. Maybe any HVAC manufacturers codes for
installing correctly could be used? We breathed insulation while excuses wasted
time for us. Excuses made to cover the filter wrongs. The wrongs that everyone
has gotten used to calling normal in mobile homes only. Even our highest
officials at state believe it is normal because that is what they were told. Not
shown facts about results it has. Legal excuses. I have been complaining since
2001 and it is on walk through papers that something is wrong with A/C. That was
at purchase of home in 2000. I have contacted everyone possible since then. I
did not wait too long to complain. The complaints were covered with bogus
excuses of a law. It is unsafe and very provable health hazards that are caused
and created by nothing but the installation method that is called legal. My
family and I have been caught in the middle? Our so called normal dust was
insulation particles. It hung in the air 24/7. I do care that my family breathed
insulation dust and particles for over ten years. The main concern for me is the
missing tie-in that was discovered which caused all the insulation in our home.
But discovered much too late. TDLR AC division gave answer of it is legal in
mobile homes only for entire complaints answer. The discovered missing metal
that had tape for the main connector to the duct work was a 3″ total void of
metal between two metal ducts., all covered over with tape. Under the floor
buried in insulation. And The make shift and the incorrect use of filters that
cause nothing but problems and health hazards. That is what I had here. There
should not be a time limit on proving how damages and health hazards are “caused
and created by laws” or codes that allow it to occur, maybe even ancient laws
obeyed? My families lives are important to me. We have been subjected to what is
worse than asbestos because laws and codes “obeyed” allow faulty and illegal
installations of AC equipment. But “only” in manufactured homes. Any states L&R
office can supply facts, not opinions, that prove the harms and damages
guaranteed to be caused by missing metal tie-in connectors. Any states L&R
office can prove how wrong it is to NOT HAVE a sealed filter system for a
residence. And the guaranteed problems caused and created from it. Obeying the
law? Both times? 2001 and 2010? Both times with completely wrong answers for my
family. How about an amendment that makes sure “all residences” deserve and HAVE
safe air conditioning. The laws that keep your homes from being a health hazard.
It should not take much time to get a law that says “all” HVAC hook ups should
be the same as far as safety when used in any residence. Laws, CODES or
something should show and say that it is AS WRONG AS IT IS. Someone please try
to prove it is correct in ANY WAY. Especially any HVAC expert. It is “illegal
for any other place or home” in America to have installed. But it is legal to
expose my grandson to this because we bought a manufactured home. No tie-in and
no possible way to have a sealed filter or sealed system. ALL “BASIC” STANDARD
INSTALLATION CODES AND RULES of HVAC manufacturers are ignored. The ones you
must follow to have your warranty be any good. Warranties are guaranteed to be
voided as soon as installed and ran. By EVERY MAJOR MANUFACTURER OF HVAC in
America. They know it destroys their equipment. They do not have a problem
admitting that to anyone at all. Especially the consumers who ask. Any HVAC
manufacturer, Any states L&R offices, Any HVAC academy or school, Any employee
of TDLR, Any expert of HVAC can not find “just one thing” to say that is good or
correct about the set-up that is legal “here only” because of a depression era
law. Allowed and legal in mobile homes only. The “only” thing all of the experts
“opinions” can come up with is :”it’s legal”. Nothing more, just it’s legal,
with no FACTS at all to even support why it is able to be called legal. Or why
it should be legal. We simply have it to where the only places to complain to
are all following ancient laws that harm us. Mold is caused with this set-up. A
very provable fact. Not maybe. Guaranteed. It is impossible and illegal to use
tape inside duct work to cover voids in missing metal. It is also illegal to use
to hang the duct with. Protect what equipment? Protect which people? Certain
Consumers are under neither of those categories when it comes to the law and
manufactured homes HVAC systems installation methods and operations. Texas is
the most beautiful state. Texas is the most envied state by others. Texas has it
all except for one thing? Updated laws for everyone? Protect who? Protect what,
from who? What would you do if your family breathed insulation because someone
was worried about a law being read or quoted correctly? This is wrong and my
family got infested with insulation. Every A/C company and State office said it
was normal and replace filters every two weeks. While all made excuses to NOT
INVESTIGATE (only photos)what they all thought was the normal created filter
problems in action. Making the so called “normal” dust problem? Everyone assumed
it was a “filter problem” because of the way IT WAS INSTALLED. The mobile home
only method. Expert HVAC Service Companies refuse to work in mobile homes. All
the equipment in intake area is exposed to the same thing that your filters make
sure to catch. All that brown fuzzy looking dirt. To prevent what happens
without filtering the air correctly.. Every time the unit is turned on,
everything is exposed to unfiltered air in all the wrong places. I was told by
most state agencies that it was normal and
legal because that is what TDLR decided with old laws. They all must go by TDLR
depression era laws also. Legal but not safe, Legal but not efficient, Legal but
not recommended at all, Legal but impossible to use for a required “sealed HVAC
system”. The use of a correct system is impossible but the system is labeled
legal. ” it’s legal” the one and only answer for me that anyone at all can come
up with. Can common sense have a place in Texas? No one can prove anything is
correct about the legal in mobile homes only set-up because “their proof” used
to make laws, codes, and facts ALL prove it is completely wrong and illegal in
your home or office. And why it was made illegal. Lots of good reasons used to
never do it. This “legal”system that has hanging duct tied in with tape. The
system causes and creates damages to the air conditioner and all it’s
components. The system produces very high humidity. 100% very guaranteed in
wrong places. The system looses very much of it’s efficiency because of all the
unfiltered air and dirt that is allowed freely in “all the wrong places” Is this
system guaranteed to create and cause health hazards? Yes. Very simple questions
with very simple yes or no answers prove to anyone it should never be allowed
anywhere. Wrongs and real problems that should “not be able to get covered
with,” It is legal. My families inside controlled environments are just as
important as all codes say they must be for EVERY one else’s homes and offices.
Yours are protected by codes and laws. The Freedom of Information act can get
more than enough evidence from any License and regulations office about how HVAC
must be tied in to duct work. There are laws and codes that INSURE “it can never
happen anywhere else”, except our homes. Never yours or theirs because laws and
codes “PREVENT” it. The more you look the dirtier the air system has been made
that is called legal in mobile homes only. It is an injustice that should not be
able to be endorsed and backed up by state laws that are provable ancient
failure Laws that protect no one. The unit “can not possibly filter any of the
air” that goes into “any part” of the ENTIRE intake area because of incorrect
filtering. That leaves an entire home with unfiltered air. The missing tie-in
has no explanation at all. It is deadly. It caused the visible dust 24/7. The
entire HVAC collects and gathers dust. In All the wrong places that get dirtier
and moister in all the wrong places. The coils exchange heat in the wrong places
with nothing but UNFILTERED AIR which gets dirtier and wetter with NO WAY TO
FILTER IT AT ALL. Snowballing. That all causes extra condensate in the wrong
places. Causing 100% humidity in all the wrong places. It looses efficiency very
rapidly. It waste electrical power. It gets worse with time and usage. I had a
completely missing metal connection to duct work from unit. The needed filter
rack was completely omitted also. That is the part that makes sure “all the air”
that goes into any of the equipment’s intake area is “through a filter only”.
Manufacturers insist on it. Any HVAC inspector insist on it and will shut down
job if not there. But left out legally in mobile homes only because of ancient
laws. The missing tie in connection was hidden under the floor in the insulation
that the EPA makes very sure is sealed good enough for road safety. I knew
nothing of the missing tie in because all said dust was “normal” to be hanging
in the air 24/7 BUT for mobile homes only. So live with it. So a case about
filters and missing parts with TDLR A/C div. is all I could do two times. 2001
with all dust complaint. 2010 with discovered missing metal at tie-in of duct
work. The ancient law is the filter set-up. The missing tie-in is the deadly
part. New home owners are all told it is normal for mobile homes. It then
becomes more and more trouble to take care of the AC . And all the excuses seem
to get more and more normal and used by all. And like daily pills you learn to
take them. Simple Questions? How about this one: Can this set-up of legal in
mobile homes only possibly prevent any health hazards? NO Or this one: Can the
set-up for mobile homes only prevent damages of any kind from happening? No. Or
this one: Does the mobile home only set-up cause and create problems for any
HVAC used on? A BIG YES. Mold is guaranteed along with the 100% humidity are
just two small samples. Simple questions with simple answers should be all it
takes to explain it to anyone. Of course that is not legal or something? It
takes years to be told that you just have to live with it because it is legal. I
can see the filters being called legal. But the missing tie-in and all the
insulation here in home totally avoided? Because of a picture they all decided
was the cause of the dust problem back in 2001. The list of problems caused and
created for the air handler and residence are “facts” that say to never allow
this anywhere. Why can everyone only produce a statement of “it is legal” to
explain it all? The air handler itself is nothing but created and caused
problems because of the improper installation. “All manufacturers” of HVAC say
“it voids our warranty” when installed this way. Instantly! Not after a while of
usage. My family breathed insulation particles for over ten years because of all
the misleading and wrong answers from all involved. including the ancient laws
“more than most” to answer on critical issues for complaints. There are many
questions that deserve answers. It could possibly effect a very large number of
homeowners who are completely unaware because every one tells them it is “normal
in mobile homes only”. And they learn to take their pill. And are very well
adjusted to all the extra cleaning required and bleaching the mold. Almost
“every single statement” in the Texas Deceptive Trade Act and Consumer
Protection Act, about all the wrongs and violations it takes to be called a
deceptive trade are violated with statement of ancient “it’s legal” but in
manufactured homes “only”. To cover NOT HAVING ANY LAWS OF PROTECTION AT ALL is
a better way to put it. No laws that even make sure HVAC’s are installed with at
the least ,the very basic “required” manufactures parts and directions. Just to
keep a warranty for new equipment. The same it’s legal would NEVER pass
“anywhere else in Texas” or the entire USA. Health and safety, and protection?
Not a one for us. Clean safe air and efficient operation of the air handler. All
taken away should not be a part of buying a lower quality home. We need to get
past the “it’s legal in mobile homes only” that is used instead of a real code
or law being considered that at least meets the manufacturers installation
needs. That should protect people and their environments. And the HVAV
equipment’s protection “all in one.” The side effects of all this cost only the
poor. There are many very legitimate reasons prove this should never be done
anywhere or “to anyone”. It is illegal in the zoos of Texas! It causes damage to
HVAC! It waste electricity because of efficiency loss. It causes 100% humidity
in all the wrong places while in operation. It requires two full size filters
every two weeks to maintain the “normal extra dust” in mobile homes “only”. 52
per year? per TDLR’s maintenance instructions for mobile homes only A/C and how
to control the so-called normal excessive dust. There was nothing normal about a
missing
tie-in. It got overlooked because of “NORMAL” answers from all when complaining
about excessive dust. Ask someone that manufacturers HVAC (ie:Lennox) to show or
explain what their unit MUST HAVE to operate properly and REQUIRES when
installed with people in the environment but mostly just to protect their HVAC
equipment properly and keeping a warranty is THEIR MAIN REASON.
Lots of return visits per year and Cleaning of the parts that should never be
exposed to the
dirt( that you get trapped in your filter) is what happens. Exactly what the
filter is designed to
do. That alone is impossible to achieve. Unfiltered air all ends up in/on the
Air Handler and In every piece of the air handlers system that should be kept
clean. There is no possible way to have a sealed system. Consumers are denied
the installation method that HVAC manufacturers require and use as a STANDARD
and “MUST HAVE” installation method. We get the voided manufacturers warranty
when it is installed the Texas “manufactured home only” method. Consumers are
placed in a guaranteed to have created health hazards environment when this is
allowed. Consumers rights are denied. Consumer protection is denied. Consumer
safety is denied. Home owners rights are denied. But only one branded consumer
gets all this done by its LACK OF laws of protection. This is done to
manufactured homeowners “only” because that is the only place in the world it
was made legal back in depression era days?. The U haul climate controlled self
storage units can not use this set-up. It is illegal. IT “causes dust and
humidity” and It would never pass codes. Zoos can’t use it etc.. The safe and
effective air handling that is “required for all other people by laws” is
eliminated completely and immediately when installed and used the mobile home
only method. It is damage causing and wrong. It would not cost the builders one
cent to do it correctly. It would not cost any installer of HVAC one cent to
install it the way HVAC manufacturers designed it to be done. Maybe some time to
teach correct way to do it is all it would take? Every HVAC manufacturer on this
planet says: “it voids our warranty” when installed the mobile home set-up
method. My homeowners insurance (that is required) states : “we do not pay for
damages that are “caused by improper installation of appliances or equipment”.
They said filters wrong. Clayton Homes says “call the HVAC company that
installed it”. Action Aire says : “call Clayton Homes”. After years of
complaining to both and many others Action Aire says to call the new mobile home
division at TDLR. The Texas Department of License and Regulation. TDLR is the
place where I was told the installation of system is legal , but in manufactured
homes “only”. The only reason I ever looked into it at all is because I had a
completely missing tie-in and TDLR insisted that I prove the filter set up is
wrong, because all thought it was a filtering problem that has laws to protect
it. They did? I sure did by the looks of it and how it didn’t work and was
causing nothing but mechanical problems instead of filtering at all. It looked
good but is completely useless for A/C filtering or residence filtering. Very
provable to anyone and has been proven to TDLR who evaded it all with “it is
legal in mobile homes ONLY”. I have photos of all the missing and incorrectly
installed HVAC. Please Help? Keep up the good work.

of TDLR, Any expert of HVAC can not find “just one thing” to say that is good or
correct about the set-up that is legal “here only” because of a depression era
law. Allowed and legal in mobile homes only. The “only” thing all of the experts
“opinions” can come up with is :”it’s legal”. Nothing more, just it’s legal,
with no FACTS at all to even support why it is able to be called legal. Or why
it should be legal. We simply have it to where the only places to complain to
are all following ancient laws that harm us. Mold is caused with this set-up. A
very provable fact. Not maybe. Guaranteed. It is impossible and illegal to use
tape inside duct work to cover voids in missing metal. It is also illegal to use
to hang the duct with. Protect what equipment? Protect which people? Certain
Consumers are under neither of those categories when it comes to the law and
manufactured homes HVAC systems installation methods and operations. Texas is
the most beautiful state. Texas is the most envied state by others. Texas has it
all except for one thing? Updated laws for everyone? Protect who? Protect what,
from who? What would you do if your family breathed insulation because someone
was worried about a law being read or quoted correctly? This is wrong and my
family got infested with insulation. Every A/C company and State office said it
was normal and replace filters every two weeks. While all made excuses to NOT
INVESTIGATE (only photos)what they all thought was the normal created filter
problems in action. Making the so called “normal” dust problem? Everyone assumed
it was a “filter problem” because of the way IT WAS INSTALLED. The mobile home
only method. Expert HVAC Service Companies refuse to work in mobile homes. All
the equipment in intake area is exposed to the same thing that your filters make
sure to catch. All that brown fuzzy looking dirt. To prevent what happens
without filtering the air correctly.. Every time the unit is turned on,
everything is exposed to unfiltered air in all the wrong places. I was told by
most state agencies that it was normal and
legal because that is what TDLR decided with old laws. They all must go by TDLR
depression era laws also. Legal but not safe, Legal but not efficient, Legal but
not recommended at all, Legal but impossible to use for a required “sealed HVAC
system”. The use of a correct system is impossible but the system is labeled
legal. ” it’s legal” the one and only answer for me that anyone at all can come
up with. Can common sense have a place in Texas? No one can prove anything is
correct about the legal in mobile homes only set-up because “their proof” used
to make laws, codes, and facts ALL prove it is completely wrong and illegal in
your home or office. And why it was made illegal. Lots of good reasons used to
never do it. This “legal”system that has hanging duct tied in with tape. The
system causes and creates damages to the air conditioner and all it’s
components. The system produces very high humidity. 100% very guaranteed in
wrong places. The system looses very much of it’s efficiency because of all the
unfiltered air and dirt that is allowed freely in “all the wrong places” Is this
system guaranteed to create and cause health hazards? Yes. Very simple questions
with very simple yes or no answers prove to anyone it should never be allowed
anywhere. Wrongs and real problems that should “not be able to get covered
with,” It is legal. My families inside controlled environments are just as
important as all codes say they must be for EVERY one else’s homes and offices.
Yours are protected by codes and laws. The Freedom of Information act can get
more than enough evidence from any License and regulations office about how HVAC
must be tied in to duct work. There are laws and codes that INSURE “it can never
happen anywhere else”, except our homes. Never yours or theirs because laws and
codes “PREVENT” it. The more you look the dirtier the air system has been made
that is called legal in mobile homes only. It is an injustice that should not be
able to be endorsed and backed up by state laws that are provable ancient
failure Laws that protect no one. The unit “can not possibly filter any of the
air” that goes into “any part” of the ENTIRE intake area because of incorrect
filtering. That leaves an entire home with unfiltered air. The missing tie-in
has no explanation at all. It is deadly. It caused the visible dust 24/7. The
entire HVAC collects and gathers dust. In All the wrong places that get dirtier
and moister in all the wrong places. The coils exchange heat in the wrong places
with nothing but UNFILTERED AIR which gets dirtier and wetter with NO WAY TO
FILTER IT AT ALL. Snowballing. That all causes extra condensate in the wrong
places. Causing 100% humidity in all the wrong places. It looses efficiency very
rapidly. It waste electrical power. It gets worse with time and usage. I had a
completely missing metal connection to duct work from unit. The needed filter
rack was completely omitted also. That is the part that makes sure “all the air”
that goes into any of the equipment’s intake area is “through a filter only”.
Manufacturers insist on it. Any HVAC inspector insist on it and will shut down
job if not there. But left out legally in mobile homes only because of ancient
laws. The missing tie in connection was hidden under the floor in the insulation
that the EPA makes very sure is sealed good enough for road safety. I knew
nothing of the missing tie in because all said dust was “normal” to be hanging
in the air 24/7 BUT for mobile homes only. So live with it. So a case about
filters and missing parts with TDLR A/C div. is all I could do two times. 2001
with all dust complaint. 2010 with discovered missing metal at tie-in of duct
work. The ancient law is the filter set-up. The missing tie-in is the deadly
part. New home owners are all told it is normal for mobile homes. It then
becomes more and more trouble to take care of the AC . And all the excuses seem
to get more and more normal and used by all. And like daily pills you learn to
take them. Simple Questions? How about this one: Can this set-up of legal in
mobile homes only possibly prevent any health hazards? NO Or this one: Can the
set-up for mobile homes only prevent damages of any kind from happening? No. Or
this one: Does the mobile home only set-up cause and create problems for any
HVAC used on? A BIG YES. Mold is guaranteed along with the 100% humidity are
just two small samples. Simple questions with simple answers should be all it
takes to explain it to anyone. Of course that is not legal or something? It
takes years to be told that you just have to live with it because it is legal. I
can see the filters being called legal. But the missing tie-in and all the
insulation here in home totally avoided? Because of a picture they all decided
was the cause of the dust problem back in 2001. The list of problems caused and
created for the air handler and residence are “facts” that say to never allow
this anywhere. Why can everyone only produce a statement of “it is legal” to
explain it all? The air handler itself is nothing but created and caused
problems because of the improper installation. “All manufacturers” of HVAC say
“it voids our warranty” when installed this way. Instantly! Not after a while of
usage. My family breathed insulation particles for over ten years because of all
the misleading and wrong answers from all involved. including the ancient laws
“more than most” to answer on critical issues for complaints. There are many
questions that deserve answers. It could possibly effect a very large number of
homeowners who are completely unaware because every one tells them it is “normal
in mobile homes only”. And they learn to take their pill. And are very well
adjusted to all the extra cleaning required and bleaching the mold. Almost
“every single statement” in the Texas Deceptive Trade Act and Consumer
Protection Act, about all the wrongs and violations it takes to be called a
deceptive trade are violated with statement of ancient “it’s legal” but in
manufactured homes “only”. To cover NOT HAVING ANY LAWS OF PROTECTION AT ALL is
a better way to put it. No laws that even make sure HVAC’s are installed with at
the least ,the very basic “required” manufactures parts and directions. Just to
keep a warranty for new equipment. The same it’s legal would NEVER pass
“anywhere else in Texas” or the entire USA. Health and safety, and protection?
Not a one for us. Clean safe air and efficient operation of the air handler. All
taken away should not be a part of buying a lower quality home. We need to get
past the “it’s legal in mobile homes only” that is used instead of a real code
or law being considered that at least meets the manufacturers installation
needs. That should protect people and their environments. And the HVAV
equipment’s protection “all in one.” The side effects of all this cost only the
poor. There are many very legitimate reasons prove this should never be done
anywhere or “to anyone”. It is illegal in the zoos of Texas! It causes damage to
HVAC! It waste electricity because of efficiency loss. It causes 100% humidity
in all the wrong places while in operation. It requires two full size filters
every two weeks to maintain the “normal extra dust” in mobile homes “only”. 52
per year? per TDLR’s maintenance instructions for mobile homes only A/C and how
to control the so-called normal excessive dust. There was nothing normal about a
missing
tie-in. It got overlooked because of “NORMAL” answers from all when complaining
about excessive dust. Ask someone that manufacturers HVAC (ie:Lennox) to show or
explain what their unit MUST HAVE to operate properly and REQUIRES when
installed with people in the environment but mostly just to protect their HVAC
equipment properly and keeping a warranty is THEIR MAIN REASON.
Lots of return visits per year and Cleaning of the parts that should never be
exposed to the
dirt( that you get trapped in your filter) is what happens. Exactly what the
filter is designed to
do. That alone is impossible to achieve. Unfiltered air all ends up in/on the
Air Handler and In every piece of the air handlers system that should be kept
clean. There is no possible way to have a sealed system. Consumers are denied
the installation method that HVAC manufacturers require and use as a STANDARD
and “MUST HAVE” installation method. We get the voided manufacturers warranty
when it is installed the Texas “manufactured home only” method. Consumers are
placed in a guaranteed to have created health hazards environment when this is
allowed. Consumers rights are denied. Consumer protection is denied. Consumer
safety is denied. Home owners rights are denied. But only one branded consumer
gets all this done by its LACK OF laws of protection. This is done to
manufactured homeowners “only” because that is the only place in the world it
was made legal back in depression era days?. The U haul climate controlled self
storage units can not use this set-up. It is illegal. IT “causes dust and
humidity” and It would never pass codes. Zoos can’t use it etc.. The safe and
effective air handling that is “required for all other people by laws” is
eliminated completely and immediately when installed and used the mobile home
only method. It is damage causing and wrong. It would not cost the builders one
cent to do it correctly. It would not cost any installer of HVAC one cent to
install it the way HVAC manufacturers designed it to be done. Maybe some time to
teach correct way to do it is all it would take? Every HVAC manufacturer on this
planet says: “it voids our warranty” when installed the mobile home set-up
method. My homeowners insurance (that is required) states : “we do not pay for
damages that are “caused by improper installation of appliances or equipment”.
They said filters wrong. Clayton Homes says “call the HVAC company that
installed it”. Action Aire says : “call Clayton Homes”. After years of
complaining to both and many others Action Aire says to call the new mobile home
division at TDLR. The Texas Department of License and Regulation. TDLR is the
place where I was told the installation of system is legal , but in manufactured
homes “only”. The only reason I ever looked into it at all is because I had a
completely missing tie-in and TDLR insisted that I prove the filter set up is
wrong, because all thought it was a filtering problem that has laws to protect
it. They did? I sure did by the looks of it and how it didn’t work and was
causing nothing but mechanical problems instead of filtering at all. It looked
good but is completely useless for A/C filtering or residence filtering. Very
provable to anyone and has been proven to TDLR who evaded it all with “it is
legal in mobile homes ONLY”. I have photos of all the missing and incorrectly
installed HVAC. Please Help? Keep up the good work.
Sincerely,
Tim Glover
