I'm a restaurant manager, I enjoy your videos learning what the techs do that come out when I put in a service call. I would love a video where you go over what equipment brands, models, etc you recommend for new equipment purchases. You would probably know best what equipment brands are easy to work on, last long, well built, and which brands are complete garbage. I've had numerous techs tell me avoid True, the management before me bought all True as as pieces fail, I am looking for what brands to purchase.

in the automotive world, older cars had a similar thermostatic switch which ran decent current, and they failed often. A fix I would do would be replace the switch and have it run a relay and let the relay take the load. id never see the car again for that issue. nowadays obv cars have a thermistor and the fans are relay or pwm controlled via the computer. no doubt there are better ways to do it, but a relay increased the reliability to the point of being a fit and forget item.

I guess my OCD kicks in when I see electrical wiring in a mess as that ice machine had on the roof unit. I can't understand why some HVAC tech would leave it like that knowing they may be the one to come back and work it. I know you take your time and do a proper re-wire and I'm glad you do. That shows concern for the customer.

Chris "contactor" strikes again.... any reason to replace a contactor, any and this one was a reach! You must own stock in the contactor manufacturers. lol Just joking around, don't take it seriously. As far as cleaning up wires, as OCD I am and like things neat, I do make an exception to leave high current conductors a little long. That way if you get a loose and hot connection there is enough wire to cut it back to good copper and you don't have to replace a whole run. Function over form in this case, as long as you can make it look nice and not stuff a box with excess. Of course if it's 12" run or so not a big deal. But something running through conduit from a disconnect or something I always try to leave extra, as long as I can. Nothing worse than finding a loose connection, bad wire and it just doesn't make it once you cut it clean, or now you have just enough to make it fit and looks banjo tight. Short wires can make a 5 minute job an hour of headaches. But, everyone has their own way of doing things and none of them are inherently wrong. Keep the videos coming.

If retailers want to be smart and maintain their machines, do you offer flat rates over time to do that? Kind of like when car dealers charge a flat fee for oil changes on new cars over the life of the car? Lots of retailers think it's automatically going to cost thousands if they call you out for maintenance, so they never call. I see nothing wrong with letting people know that they have options other than just waiting for the machines to break down.

Using the vids as a teaching tool, GREAT IDEA. Also, it could be that you have a rare fault, but memory may tell you about it and you can drag it out to show your people what happened that earlier time.

I think you are doing a good job describing what you do and why. And the videos are generally having a good length for viewing too. Useful good videos have a tendency to attract viewers.

Same thing just happened to me for the fan cycle switch for a Manitowoc. For mine the terminals on top of the switch completely shorted out. Made the repairs same as you. Thanks for the videos!

Replacing one of these bullsh*t peanut style pressure switches with a proper traditional pressure switch must feel like you've made the world a better place !

When I was at Manitowoc for factory training, the instructor actually admitted that the fan cycling control had a bad production run, and they had switched suppliers. Yet the issue remains. I think your solution is the best thing for the customer. It avoids the inevitable call back when the fan cycling control fails again. Oh, and just for the record, anyone who can admit that they make mistakes and goes back out into the field every day, has my respect. Keep on keeping on😎✌🖖👍

I always try to paint the accumulator with some spray paint to try to help it keep it leak free for a bit longer.
