HVAC R&D Podcast

It's race week four of the 2025 Formula 1 season already and after three rounds it looks like it is already shaping up to be a Max Verstappen vs McLaren for the Drivers championship.

Rhydon and Rachael break down last week's results and get their bold predictions on the board for the coming weekend and enjoy some great HVAC banter along the way.

A dominant controlling performance by Max at Suzuka in the Lenovo Japanese Grand Prix see's the four time World Champion only a single point adrift from this season's favored champion to win it all, Lando Norris.

However, there is proving to be no lack of fight or desire in Verstappen to push for his fifth in a row, and that is just the way we like it.

Now it is time to head back to Bahrain. The home of pre-season testing this year, Bahrain had been the first race on the calendar for the last number of years but now it will be interesting to see who returns to the Arabian track with the best set up after several races to adjust their set ups.

Red Bull are hoping to see Yuki Tsunoda find his performance quick as McLaren and Mercedes are already looking to take a commanding lead in the top two places of the Constructors Championship.

Meanwhile Lando and Oscar Piastri will be heavily favored to come out on top at this high speed track and will hope they can return to the top of the podium and keep a determined Max at bay.

Mercedes will be looking to sneak onto the podium, while Ferrari will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing start to the campaign.

Enjoy the show and here is to another great Grand Prix!

This week Rhydon Atzenhoffer welcomes third generation Tradeswoman and professional marketing bestseller, Amber Gaige, to the HVAC R&D Podcast.

Amber helped to grow her family's plumbing business where she was put into the position to "start" a marketing company, that launched her into her career passion of supporting businesses with their branding and growth strategies.

Having built something with her family, Amber transitioned to the corporate world where she honed her craft to then return to her roots and found her own firm, Far Beyond Marketing.

This spirited woman from Texas has a great story and an even better personality and I am happy she shared her journey with the #TradeCrew.

Welcome back to episode three of the HVAC Zoomies Podcast, a bonus show produced by HVAC R&D! 

Rhydon and Rachael are pumped to be back for another discussion as they break down some hot topics in the HVAC world to open the show, and then they get to the 2025 Chinese Sprint and Grand Prix results while evaluating their current bold prediction standings for the season.

Red Bull has made the first major move of the calendar year by dropping Liam Lawson back to Racing Bulls and promoting Honda backed Japanese driver Yuki Tsunoda to the second Red Bull seat alongside of Max Verstappen for the upcoming Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka.

Will Oscar Piastri continue to assert his recent dominance at the front of the pack or will Max or Lando Norris spoil his dreams under the cherry blossoms this coming weekend?

Tune in for our bold predictions and banter ahead of this weekend's action in Japan.

Just before Christmas and the turn of the New Year, Rhydon Atzenhoffer welcomed Jimmy Abraham of Bosch Home Comfort USA to the show to discuss how to make the most of the 25C and Inflation Reduction Act tax credits as an HVAC or Plumbing contractor.

The two dive into the tools and information available through Bosch Home Comfort as well as urging contractors to do their own local research to be able to best serve their customers while also using the incentives to help drive sales of Bosch IDS Inverter Heat Pumps and their Greentherm and Greentronic Water Heaters.

Make sure to take some notes on this one as there are some great nuggets of information to help you grow your business and properly communicate to customers how these incentives work.

Thanks to Bosch Home Comfort, just prior to Christmas, Rhydon was able to have an eye opening conversation with Bosch IDS Ultra project engineer, Trevor Shane.

The two discussed not only Trevor's path to Bosch and how he navigated a switch from the auto industry to HVAC but some of the key design features on the new IDS Ultra Cold Climate Heat Pump. IDS Ultra as the first Heat Pump to pass the United States Cold Climate Challenge and Bosch looks to lead the way with this revolutionary technology.
