Thanks for keeping it real, JMT, and taking us along for the ride. One of the things I love about your channel learning how to work on systems I don't normally get to repair, and I enjoyed seeing how the machine works. I haven't worked on one of those either, but thanks to you, I'll have some insight into them if/when I get the chance. Maybe those posting who seem to have more knowledge will be good enough to share more about the heat exchanger. Great video.
🇺🇸❄️💪👍 definitely replace pump. I replace both now b4 I just replaced motor then pump went n ate up the connection on motor shaft. And don't leave compressor running when pump/motor is off or down.
Great job, kid! You did well. Yes, come back and change that pump. Also recommend the pump and cleaning/adding glycol. It's always good to learn something new and get paid for it. Thanks for sharing!
I have never worked on one of those either, but you might be able to lift the pump above the tank level, so all the fluid runs back into the tank - then change the pump, then lower the pump back down again (probably worth checking each pipe, by blowing down each one to make sure there are no blockages back to the tank) - Enjoying your content 👍
👍💪❄️🇺🇸 motor/pump doesn't sound good. Maybe tight connections. Also the motor/pump has a pump saver assembly fits in between pump n motor for added heat transfer protection. But ive had them break as well. Good luck thanks for sharing
I used to work at Perlick company 50 years ago. My brother just retired from there after 45 years. Good job on the repair,, but I would take the motor out of the saddle to make it easier to get at the bolts. What do you charge for your repairs?
Lazy diagnosis from the initial call. Not bothering to work out why the motor overheated until you came to change the old one. You really should have disconnected it and found the issue. If the pump was recommended to be changed you should have bought both or at least made the customer aware of the recommendation so he could choose. You risk the new motor by running it with the old pump. Secondly you have absolutely no idea how a plate heat exchanger works. It doesn't need to be in the water at all.
I think he said that it was his 1st time ever working on it. I don't think he was that lazy. If you wanted to help, maybe you could advise. One way would be how not to lose the glycol, the other being how to mix the glycol water ratio. I do not ever remember JMT stating that he was ever an expert, although I have seen him take sound advice from the comments. Yours is sound, just a little on the grumpy old man side. Maybe you tone down the aggressive typing one the keyboard.
JMT did well despite it being his first time on this machine. It was not lazy at all. JMT read the schematics and did the right things. If he were my tech, I would have said, great job, and learn from this one for the next one. Isn't that the way we all learn? No one is born an expert at anything. We watch to learn out of interest, rather than pedantic criticism as you have shown.

Tks for updating us , and now time is for Miller time.✌️
Yup, always replace both, at least separate them to confirm what’s locked up/condition of pump etc
Definitely you are right
Great Video. Thank you for sharing. Have a nice weekend
Great job as always JMT.

Very nice
You need open end wrenches.
I said that yesterday pump could be bound up
Always change the pump and motor at the same time
😻💜💚💜
Easy fix for the professional 😂
Very true.. It would have been if diagnosed properly by a professional.
