I used to worry also to the point where I began to memorize and I could go back in my mind and see what I did. I worked with patients. Usually sixteen but sometimes the whole building some 60 patients and I was amazed how I could go back in my mind and remember every pill and every dose I gave each patient. The mind is an amazing tool when you teach it. I’m glad you take pride in your work. People can lose trust in an entire business over one mistake albeit could be a big mistake.

27:28 Sightglass flashing (saturation) with 27* subcooling shown on gauges. This is a false subcooling indicating non-condensibles (air) in the condenser. The rusty looking stainer 25:26 is also evidence of air/moisture in the system. The compression ratio of 5:1 indicates a very robust compressor. The non-condensibles being removed during the compressor change out makes it look as if the compressor was at fault but it almost certainly wasn't. On the bright side, moisture may have made the oil acidic and damaged the compressor winding insulation. It may have been short for this world anyway. Non-condensibles are notoriously difficult to diagnose and I am guilty of getting it wrong also. I hope this comment can help save unnecessary work for someone in the future. P.S. The value of dedicated and honorable service exemplified in this video is priceless!

I would call not billing overtime for the full wall clock time on that job as excessive, you did a lot of work and running around there.. Personally, what seems correct would be billing minimum duration (1hr) or actual time taken for the Saturday visit, for workmanship verification. You said you went there out of personal concern, but I'd call that professional concern. If you're worried about excessive charging on that, add **extra** "discount" line items e.g. "DISCOUNT - WEEKEND VISIT CHARGED AS WEEKDAY" (note: this is as much a callout post to myself as it is a response to the video, I also have a tendency to shave the reported hours & I'm trying to learn how to make sure my work is recognized for what it is!)

I liked it when you were allowed to keep what you needed on your truck to get the job done the first time out. With big corporations buying smaller companies it's all about the numbers as far as what you are allowed to keep on your truck, what you carry on your truck would not fly with companies who are owned by big corporations.

It was a fun job and it made me some good money, I never did maintenance work like this but I cleaned the dirt and dust out of the roof units and just basic cleaning on inside units on the loading docks and in the freezers and processing rooms. I really enjoy seeing this aspect of the job.

Love that old Simpson meter on the shelf behind your desk. Good old analog lol. What I started on in the seventies.

Dude! I love how you explain what your doing and why! And what you may see as a rant at the end, I see as a tech who is committed to his craft! Also, I can relate to the OCD! Really Appreciate ALL your videos!!

Great video. It is right, one thing is working just to get a pay check and another thing is working on what you like because you are passionate about it and that you really care.

Love the air defrost idea some times less is more . We used to do all the coolers that way .

Dude this was an epic service call. You're a man of integrity and your priorities are in the right place. Customer-first mentality will take you far. I would hire you or work for you/with you no question. (FWIW, I do exactly the same thing - I dwell on my work for days because I want my craftsmanship to be perfect. Sometimes even years later I'll think about jobs I've done and wonder whether everything is still working properly.)

1 An auxiliary switch is only needed if your breaker cannot handle the load of both the compressor and heaters. 2 Beer cooler runs close to 32 degree. 3 Someone made the limit switch on both Evaps disappear and they screwed up the wiring.

You are awesome! You are the kind of tech that I love to work with. Your well worth the money.

besides just finding these system repairs interesting, I watch the videos bc you seem like a good/caring guy. Like 9/10 times I’ve dealt with techs for all kinds of things who don’t care/don’t know anything. It’s nice to see a good one in action!

That is rediculous, I would have re-wired the whole thing. That previous tech/installer who bypassed everything and originally wired it needs a good beating lol

Yes, sometimes it takes less time to rip out all the wires and then put them in right. Otherwise you're just chasing screwed-up circuits for days.

Rewiring everything is better. But costs time, money. I bet the customer would choose the less money but same functionality option

Great videos, really interesting for someone like me who’s still got a lot to learn. Never worked for restaurants as a mech but still find it really interesting. Thanks for the high quality of your work as well as your high values that are more and more rare today.
