  • @ImZyluxOG
    @ImZyluxOG Месяц назад +3

    Rack systems are the BANE of my existence… there’s usually always an exhaust fan right next to the coil, the customer won’t let us install a stack on the exhaust so the coil is so impacted with grease it’s insane. Last week I had an emergency call for a WIF on a rack where I chemically cleaned the coil 5 times and it just wouldn’t get all that grease out. Head pressure was exceeding 400psi, so I had to recover like 2LBS of refrigerant just to get the box down to 10°F. Was there till 2am…. We had to go back the next day with the strongest cleaner we could find, that shit will burn your skin off man…

  • @tekjunkie28
    @tekjunkie28 Месяц назад +5

    One thing I will point out is that defrost clock is coated in dust. Electronics will act weird and die from dust because it is electricallly conductive. It maybe a little risky brushing or blowing off the clocks with a lot of force but try to keep them clean. Great videos!

    Another great video yes the sacrifices that you make when you run you own company. Those time clocks always look funny to me the way they mount everything on an open PWB I would have thought that they would put them in a case to stop dust getting into them.

    Service tip*
    An air compressor just with air to blow condenser out should be first choice.
    Then air with stoddard solvent pickup tube, then water then chemicals when grease is involved.
