    They'll change the entire box out IF they can just make through this next year.....it's always this next year 😂😂😂

    One of the most freeing moments in my 34-year commercial refrigeration career was when I realized I could tell the customer, "No, I'm not going to try to repair this piece of equipment. It has to be replaced. "

    The best way to diet is just visit the kitchens of most restaurants. You'll never eat out again!
    Yeah, it's not just this place - the vast majority of them would make your skin crawl.

    No mas! Thats one where you need payment same day, no checks!!! I wouldve thought hard about refusing service on that one. Thats the type of call where you fix it, 2 days later the compressor blows, and the next thing you know your getting a 1 star Google review amd blasted on Facebook because you "JUST fixed the cooler and now you want thousands of dollars more"

    I had a service request on a similar box recently. I walked away and said we were the wrong company to service them. They asked if I had a referral. Dude, I couldn’t do that to my worst enemy!

    I saw one like this. It was an outdoor walk-in freezer that had a tarp bungee strapped over it and had been like that for a while. Ended up there were 3 layers of tarps when one wore out another was thrown over it. There were broken bungees on the ground around it. The heaters on the evap were no longer embedded in the fins and condenser fins were flattened over. There were a foot and a half long stalactites hanging from ceiling and ice piling up on the floor. It looked like the box was gonna fold in on itself from all the added weight. But I was called out because the door wouldn't latch! The closer was bad. I didn't even bother replacing it, i just omitted it. I told the owner he needed to go ahead and add another tarp because the other 3 had failed.

    Indoor refrigeration condensers dont even work on roofs in rhode island anymore. They just go off on high head pressure or dlt alarm when it gets 90+. Its almost like the indoor condensing units have a smaller condenser

    • @throttlebottle5906
      @throttlebottle5906 23 дні тому

      they often do, as they're meant for a conditioned indoor climate space. same thing happens if the building HVAC fails, temperature and humidity climbs and done.

    That is one where you tell them they need to lift the pad lock, slide the old box out and then slide in a new box, then put the pad lock on the new box. That is hammered and is a health hazard. Too bad some of the inspectors will over look things like that but ding good restaurants for having caulking missing around the sinks.

    • @NorCal-refrigeration
      @NorCal-refrigeration  23 дні тому

      It’s 3 phase just check the rotation if it’s out your compressor will be noisy and not pump.

    • @throttlebottle5906
      @throttlebottle5906 23 дні тому +1

      just note that it will be 240V 3 phase, not 208V. as long as nothing is expecting 120V or 208V and requiring a neutral, it really wouldn't matter to the equipment.
      if it's an odd setup which requires a neutral and 120V or 208V then you'll have to select the correct wiring choice. high leg to neutral will get you 208v single phase, while either of the other hot lines to neutral will be 120v.
      I don't think any of them would do something that stupid, then again! it could be an issue on an RTU, if it has a 120v service receptacle, but that's usually field installed stuff.
