Yes, pretty awesome. I need to do a better job delivering the information though I think. takes time to get this content creating to a good place. I'm glad you liked it.
not bad. maybe start out with an overview of the system and describe the problem you are trying solve. It was toward the middle where you showed all the vacuum drops to all the units and explained the system. be careful working at height too@@HVACRServiceTech
I didn't really know where to start when I first saw these systems. Spent many hours researching And reading to understand how everything works together. Out here they just throw you out there to the wolves. Pretty much and gotta figure it out yourself.. I've ran maybe 4 or 5 calls on it already and I'm starting to get a pretty good handle on it.
I never did any super market refrigeration. This is something new to me but I can see where it makes sense to have in a large number of display cases. Next time I’m grocery shopping I will have to look up and see if they have this type of system.
Yea i dont have too much knowledge About this type of system but it's really cool. I wish I would have invented it. it makes perfect sense. Yeah look up it's gonna be in your big wholesale Sam's competitor
@@HVACRServiceTech Yes I kind of figured those are the types of places that would use it. I can see where it gives them freedom to remodel and not be limited by floor drains. Basically just a huge condensate pump but more expensive and elaborate.
I work on this system for Costco. Its a learning curve but easy once you do every component. System needs to be kept CLEAN for maximum performance. I am a walking EVAC knowledge base.
I'm not exactly sure. I'm gonna have my parts guy place the order for the parts I need on Tuesday. And the have to just wait and deal with the water leak until then. That's coming up in Part 2
im not exactly sure. it could be a different process for builing large scale. instead of DWV piping within the concrete slab, this is a different option. Actually seems easier to maintain since it can all be accessed in the future, as piping buried inside a concrete cannot
I can understand the reasoning for the overhead drain lines, but, it seems this system is overly complicated. Why not just allow the waste water drain into a pan and have a pump push the water overhead to the sewer system. This appears to be the overuse of technology when a simple pump could be used. Keep it simple.
I believe that the purpose for this design is to have a fully pneumatic system, requiring no electricity through the collection network. If we use pumps-we require power. I think also they promote the smaller diameter piping compared to DWV. Don't get me wrong. I don't sponsor them or anything like that. that's just what I've read on the literature.
I always seen these/stared at these when I was there shopping. Nice to see the behind the scenes of how they work

Need a scissor lift for any repairs and do it after hours for Costco , don’t miss those calls!!
This set up is new to me looking forward for part 2
Cool man. I'll get it up for you tomorrow, hopefully. I'm on call till Tuesday, but I'll try for sure.
this is a great video bro, i wouldnt have known where too start. lucky for you, your system has ball valves on the floor

@@czechmate6916 That's a great way to look at it. Because that's exactly what it is.

Bro I have loads of questions. My company is trying to have us install one with 0 training lmao.
Acorn or Evac? That sucks man, I have a feeling that it had better be done correctly or there will be trouble
Ask away. I’m more in tune with EVAC. Costco uses them over acorn. Target is more acorn. We just wrapped up 2 installs.
Where do I get a copy of the manual? I work in Colorado and that's all they have at Costco
it's inches of Mercury, not inches of Hg (Hg is the symbol for Mercury on the Periodic Table)
Yes, you're correct
where do you get that pinch valve? I've only seen them for tiny 1/4"-1/2".
I'm not exactly sure. I'm gonna have my parts guy place the order for the parts I need on Tuesday. And the have to just wait and deal with the water leak until then. That's coming up in Part 2
Why would you NOT have floor drains? Why would you use this crazy system?
im not exactly sure. it could be a different process for builing large scale. instead of DWV piping within the concrete slab, this is a different option. Actually seems easier to maintain since it can all be accessed in the future, as piping buried inside a concrete cannot
Remodel/Adding new cases, easier to have this system instead of all that plumbing work I suppose
That is basically what the manual said. @@refer_insight
I think you are correct. They would be cutting concrete to move floor drains around every time they rearranged the store.@@refer_insight
@@refer_insightthis is the right answer. For remodels and moving/adding new cases.
