That’s amazing. I hope you see this comment. I have some questions. I’m a single woman setting up a laboratory studio in my dad‘s basement. He died and I have moved in and I’m setting up my equipment. I need a sink. I hope I can put this together maybe with a little help. Love the sink, love the faucet, love the pedal and the pump I’m gonna search for everything. Thank you so much. I just subscribed.🩶🙏

Eric I watched your video as I had same issue trying to jump the ports Through a little trial and error I found that by taking the screw out of the large gear I could turn the shaft to the point that opened the solenoid allowing an easy way to control the flow of either air or antifreeze, owner choice 2019 Mesa Ridge Frigidaire residential refrigerator

FYI, RV antifreeze DOES freeze. The temp on the bottle is the burst temp.

Only if you get down to -60 to -100F. I doubt that most people will experience that level of cold.

I would like to have a normal sink and a shower this way. Do you think this pump would still be appropriate? Do you think I could put some kind of split and a heater for hot water?
@ericshop Жыл бұрын
Absolutely! You might want to look at a RV shower head but look on Amazon for a water heater, RV water heaters are much too expensive.

How much did the pump cost?

Harbor Freight has one for $65 right now but you might be able to fine one cheaper used. www.harborfreight.com/110-hp-transfer-pump-320-gph-63317.html

Thanks, great video. My application is a little different because my fridge is in a summer lake house that we don't use in the winter. Any thoughts on how can I get the fridge to pick up the antifreeze while I cycle the water and ice solenoids?
@ericshop 2 жыл бұрын
Pick up a small pump at a farm store and hook it up to the fridge water line. I would recommend using this pump on all of your plumbing, not just the fridge.

So if the ice maker is that easy to remove, why not just take it out, pump a little anti freeze through the line and call it good. Then put it back in spring?
@ericshop 2 жыл бұрын
There is a valve on the back of the fridge that is activated by the ice maker, you can't just pump antifreeze through the line without activating that valve.

@ericshop 2 жыл бұрын
You can blow it out with air instead of antifreeze but you will still need to open the valve to do it. The risk that you run with air is that some water will remain and could pool and freeze. If that's a risk you are willing to take it may be okay. When I was in business it wasn't a risk I was willing to take with my customers units.

The water pumps can be bought as either 12v DC or 110v AC, here is one available from Harbor Freight. www.harborfreight.com/110-hp-transfer-pump-320-gph-63317.html

In hindsight I should have put a trap on the sink and also consider putting a little bleach in the waste tank. Keep an eye on your supply tank for mold if you are not using it much.

Hey man good setup. What kind of pump do you have? I have a similar setup and the pump is really quite loud. Yours seemed to be a bit more quiet. Thanks
@ericshop 2 жыл бұрын
Isolation is the key to making the pump more quiet. Mounting it with soft rubber feet or grommets will help a lot. I’m not sure what brand the pump is but I worked with a lot of 12v pumps when I worked on campers and for the most part they are all the same.

Hi Eric - Thanks for the video. Very helpful! I have the same exact refrigerator but I’m struggling with how to get the ice cube tray cover off to get to the L and V ports. This should be simple but I’ve not been able to figure out how to get it off and I don’t want to break something. Any insight would be much appreciated!

Hi Doug, it's been a couple of years since I've done this kind of work, I shut down my business and moved to take care of a family member with bad health, but as I remember the cover just pulled off the front with no screws. You might make it easier on yourself by removing the ice maker from the freezer so you can get better eyes on the cover and where the ports are before hooking it back up to winterize it. Good luck!

What is the jumper to dewinterize?
@ericshop 2 жыл бұрын
I'm sorry I didn't see your question for so long, using the same jumper but with water instead of antifreeze should work the same, let it overflow the cube cups and maybe mop them out with a paper towel or towel so it'll start fresh without antifreeze in the cups.

Great video... I put a jumper wire across LV and water started to flow for a short while but I ran out of antifreeze... when I refilled the water tank with the pink stuff and tried again a couple of days later, absolutely nothing happened... I’m wondering if the motor burned out or if the water supply somehow iced up and blocked, but that seems unlikely, as the unit is powered off now, so completely defrosted... could also be a blown solenoid or water supply valve but open to thoughts/suggestions?
@ericshop 4 жыл бұрын
I'd make sure the pump primed with the new antifreeze. Also make sure the fridge is turned on, otherwise the solenoid will not open.

Where do you get a foot pump? And does the pump run continually when you press the foot pump?
@ericshop 4 жыл бұрын
I made mine but Harbour Freight sells two different styles foot switches, one that latches on with one press and then off when you push again, and the other is only on as long as you press the button. You can choose the one that fits your needs best.
