I know it's probably too late for this build, but next time you design a pump house, I suggest adding hand and foot slots recessed into the surge pit wall so a ladder isn't needed if someone needs access to the bottom (or needs to get out because they fell in)... Either that, or have C shaped aluminum rungs bolted to the pit wall either on the inside short wall beside the pumps etc. or on the outside wall leading to the access door...the aluminum rungs can be added after the fact and might be a wise modification to ALL the Surge Pits in every Park you control...
Nothing like the new slide smell :) I love how they have the arrows on the pipes to show how it should flow. All of those attraction are miniatures of your main attractions just right for kids who don't meet the height requirements yet.
13 days after uploading, YT finally recommended the video, I feel lost not seeing the other build videos. Looks like a nice system. And just in time for summer.
You have a 100 amp service with a 1300 instantaneous trip. It is really cool to see a s7-1200 PLC in use at a theme park. Just out of curiosity why is it not common practice to have a central PLC just for turning stuff on/off and displaying status or sending texts to the event of faults? Also nice to see George Fischer equipment, one of my preferred sensor suppliers for process measurement.
That's so much awesome and great quality tech inside there. Industrial-grade one could, say, I guess this will last a looong time. And it looks super stunning. Thanks for sharing and have fun with it! I'm already hyped to see that in action.
0:20 Aren't those exiting parts swapped around? I get that this looks cooler, but if you're coming around that bend at a bit of speed you might get tossed over that low edge. It also seems completely useless to me to have the high wall on the side of the slide that it's currently on. I get these aren't high speed slides, but still.
Nice Siemens controller! I have a lot of fun playing around with those. The new unified hmi system has quite a bit of advanced features. Those controls definitely industrial and obtainable/upgradeable for the future.
Awesome stuff here!! Slides look fabulous and the pump house looks awesome!! I love how waterparks work behind the scenes, I’ve been lucky enough recently to have a pump house tour of a small indoor one close to where I live, found it very fascinating!! Would love to work in a place like that
Have you ever thought of network connecting the equipemt? would enable you to have remote fault diagnosing and status straight to a computer or wall mounted TV in your office or something. and potentially even remotely restart or turn off equipment. or even have a app on your phone?
The slides are built in sections at the park (in the parking lot for these). Then the prebuilt sections are brought into the park with a telehandler (a boom forklift) and set in place.
@@thepoolguy Just the manual valves down at floor level like they installed on your system. Come off the top where the existing 1/4 turn valves are and extend those down to the floor and move the 1/4 turn valve down there. That way no more stick to bleed the air out. 👍
@@thepoolguy yes it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on safety of attractions in Texas/USA vs other countries where those failures originated, maybe they have relatively weak standards or enforcement practices
Softstarters were cheaper for this application, additionally they are much easier to troubleshoot, repair and replace. The VFDs are nice, but they can be problematic in the texas heat.
Hi Jesse mein Freund ,Wahnsinn und Respekt wie schnell die Technik aufgebaut wurde. Wünsche dir einen schönen Tag und freue mich sehr auf weitere videos von dir, viele liebe Grüße von deinem Fan marc aus Deutschland ☀️☀️😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍🍀🍀🍀
I did my training last year for operator which I am super stoked about! Especially with the new stuff this year 😊 previously I worked front and concessions etc I floated to where I was needed. I am sure we met!

Soooo cool to see it all come together
Very organized. I like the conduit on the floor with the disconnects in tge wall
Haven't watched since around Thanksgiving. Holy cow! Digging the layout! Hope you and the fam been doing well. Can't wait to see what this year brings

I'm not 6 but these still look awesome
Agreed lol my kids would love this
Is there any chance too see something being filled?
Thanks for sharing the pump house. New machines we all love em ;)
You sound really excited. Looks real nice.
Deffo need a video of the commission of the rides in the pump house be interesting to see and guess how many flanges need nipping up from leaks if any
Lol, I see a irritrol valve. I just recently battled them with my sprinkler system.
@10:57 You are showing the back of the filter and the vacuum hoses. My question is
What is the bottle jack used for?
It is to lift the lid and change the filter.
@@marios.9191 ok thanks

How I want my backyard pool pump house! 🤪😁
Please can you show us the powering on for the first time with it all filling??
What's up with the valves in the surge pit? How are they going to be acuated?
Pneumatic probably
Really high quality kids park
So exciting been waiting for this follow up :)
That pump house will pump up the water volume 😂
When the water gets to the bottom of the slide, how does it get to the surge pit?
awesome stuff! Can't wait to see the start up
What is this water park called
What happen with this panel. 1:34 looks like it is the wrong size?
What a progress in just 2 weeks, did they pre-built the install at their shop before they install it at the park? Keep up the good video's!
The slides are built in sections at the park (in the parking lot for these). Then the prebuilt sections are brought into the park with a telehandler (a boom forklift) and set in place.
What pump manufacturer did you go with?
Aurora Pumps
Are there a lot of companies who makes the slides and stuff? Or is it a pretty niche market?
I am surprised that you don't have remote air bleed valves, instead if having to use the stick! 👍🤠
Auto bleeders are hit or miss. I'd rather not deal with them
@@thepoolguy Just the manual valves down at floor level like they installed on your system. Come off the top where the existing 1/4 turn valves are and extend those down to the floor and move the 1/4 turn valve down there. That way no more stick to bleed the air out. 👍
What's the bottle jack for that's attached to the side of the defender filter it's 10:57 in to the vid
It's how you take the top off after removing all the bolts to access the top internals.
@@MrTak44 thanks
how long does it take to fill the surge pit
suggestion for video: hearing your reactions/comments to 'water slide fails'
Wait, you mean from other RUclips videos?
@@thepoolguy yes it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on safety of attractions in Texas/USA vs other countries where those failures originated, maybe they have relatively weak standards or enforcement practices
Just a question why do you still use softstarts, why not just use VFDs on everything as the price is very similar as it is…
Softstarters were cheaper for this application, additionally they are much easier to troubleshoot, repair and replace. The VFDs are nice, but they can be problematic in the texas heat.
what is the name of the water park
Got yourself a siemans Tia license and go on a course. Youl be able to fault find very easily on the new plc

hope yall put up bariers around the slide and the opening to keep kids and stupid people from jumping in that hole and climbing on top
15:02 i mean im sure theese Cable on the Ground are safe and all but.... i would not go in there
sick
I thought it was new big slides, not baby slides lol
Rain
I am working at this park for my 3rd season this year! ☀️🛝🏖️
How cool! I worked there a couple years ago and had a blast! What area did you work?
