Most techs skip static pressure tests—but it’s one of the most important readings you can take. In this video, I break down exactly what static pressure is, why it's the key to diagnosing airflow issues, and how to take accurate readings using a manometer.

You'll learn:

✅ How static pressure affects airflow, temperature, motor strain, and more
✅ How to properly place probes based on manufacturer data
✅ How to read blower performance charts to verify airflow
✅ How to choose the right CFM per ton for your region (350, 400, or 450)

Whether you're commissioning a system or chasing poor performance, this is the test that reveals the truth.
