THE WALK IN FREEZER IS TOO WARM

Thanks for another great video, Chris, good info and context. I always watch right to the end to make sure I don't miss anything important you put in the commentary at the end. Or than that this has to be the record for the most yawns in a video! Yes you did make me feel like yawning, too, but then I'm watching this at night so that's kind of okay. Congratulations on your anniversary, by the way, I hope you managed to salvage something despite the emergency call out. Have a good night's sleep, Chris. 🙂

I don’t even work in the HVAC business at all, but I do enjoy watching your videos! Regards from Brazil 🇧🇷

Me too brother, I also don't work in the hvac industry, but surely those videos are entertaining

Thanks for watching

[@keenanwalker6597]

I check KZbin everyday to see if you posted a new video…. Been following your page for about 2 years now and it has Definetly benefited me tremendously. Thank You Chris!

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

Thanks for watching Bud

[@fshn76]

I agree with you about those Penns would love to carry the KE2 temp controllers. They are super easy to program.

[@throttlebottle5906]

never used or seen them installed anywhere, but I do wonder how they hold up to nearby and frequent lightning strikes. I have seen other digital models(retrofit and new) hold up ok, including the rectangle module type. but then again, nothing was as reliable as the old dinosaur stuff, seen contacts in herm arc welded shut and where a huge fireball occurred from a power line strike, amazingly the machine was running and frozen near solid(pressure switch was banging) lol 🤔

[@treyeslinger6872]

They hold up the best in my opinion, in coolers I always use the Ke2 air temp+ defrost. I haven’t seen one fail yet as opposed to digitals like ranchos which fail a lot especially in freezers or penns which i keep getting bad straight from a manufacturer or supply house.

[@KIRBZVIDS]

I have been watching your videos for years now i love your process of diagnosing things and rambling on about owners not doing maintenance is so tru tho what you say if they had regular maintenance there old units would last double their life time keep up good work buddy 💪

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

Exactly, it's a common soap box I stand on around here

[@ndaguanno]

No, you’re not the only one I also confuse Memorial Day and Labor Day. And just as you it’s not that I don’t appreciate The specific reason for the day. For whatever reason they always get mumble jumbled. I’m a few weeks behind, but I like to binge watch your videos! So I try to wait for a few in a row.

Good morning. Great video. I bought Kobalt battery powered sprayers for all my guys. Excellent sprayer. Everyone likes them better than pump up sprayers. I had the coiljet sprayers but they are expensive and tend leak a lot.

How are the Kobalt sprayers holding up over time ?

In your mind, associate the M in Memorial Day to the M in the month of May. That's how I remember it.

[@pinecone01]

To add to this, could associate Labor day with "L" for "Last day of summer."

[@JustNobodyButME]

i always figure you have to labor all through summer to get to labor day.

[@drewscruis]

Memorial day is in may. The only way I remember which is which is that memorial and may both start with M.

Awwww. Disconnecting the two-speed fan portion 😢 The whine it makes when changing speeds is so dramatic lol, like the freezer is a piece of equipment from the movie Aliens or something.

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

Lol

[@marksnyder2232]

I have the same problem with confusing Memorial Day and Labor Day. The other day, when frequenting a buisness nearby, they had a trailer parked near the back, a rental freezer trailer. I'm guessing they were having freezer problems. Don't know the economics of it, but I wonder if that might be a way to offer an extra profit-generating service for you and your customers for times that the fix will take longer than the product can survive for?

[@throttlebottle5906]

it's best to leave that to a dedicated "refrigeration rental/lease company", tons of headaches and red tape involved in transportation/delivery. just suggest they call one of them to supply such.

[@brandoncorrea511]

Why would u change the tstat from a mechanical to a smart one if the system has a defrost clock? What advantages are there?

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

More reliability and accuracy with the digital

[@nicolasmartinez1693]

Mr. Chris What are your thoughts on the KE2 Evaporator Efficiency Controller for use in a WIF?

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

The ke2 evap efficiency control is a solid product but I don’t like how difficult it is to navigate from the buttons, when you hook it to a computer or tablet it’s awesome though

[@nicolasmartinez1693]

​@HVACRVIDEOS In your opinion what would be a scenario where that controller should be a must? What issues must the client be having with the WIF?

[@treyeslinger6872]

Isn't a KE2 a kinda pricy device to use as a dumb stat?

[@JoeyB0b]

Have you ever found the body of someone who got locked in a walk in freezer and died? I've heard stories of it happening and am always paranoid about walking in the freezer because of it, especially late at night. Is there a way to get out of most walk in freezers if you get locked in or anything you can do to survive?

[@jollygreen4639]

Define locked in. You talking if the door is closed and latched on the outside? Or talking if the door is closed snd latched and the door handle is also padlocked on the outside?

[@JoeyB0b]

@@jollygreen4639 Ya locked from outside or if it breaks somehow so it can no longer be opened

[@jollygreen4639]

If the handle broke off, there’s a push knob on the inside of the door that is connected to a rod that will push on the innards of the latch and will allow the door to open. If it’s padlocked, hope you’re wearing a jacket.

[@JoeyB0b]

​@@jollygreen4639could I break the fans to stop the room from cooling?

[@jollygreen4639]

I wouldn’t be overly concerned that it’s gonna happen.

Chris, how do you cope with going in a box negative 10 to 100 degrees on the roof. Must make you unwell sometimes ?

Don't think you should be re-identifying bonding (green) conductors as hots, now there is a 208V controller screwed to a metal box without a bonding conductor, not big on that

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

There is no way to bond that plastic controller to ground

[@Byron88]

@@HVACRVIDEOS well that is interesting I've never used any line volt controller without provisions for bonding , so I guess as long as you wiring method contained no metal box connectors you're good to go but if there is a metal box connectors a grounding bushing would be required w/ bond conductor landed on it

[@JP-sd2cw]

How will setting it for -20 make it -10, wouldn’t that make it -20?

[@Jon.Rushing]

The old temp control is mechanical and it loses its calibration over time. What the temp dial says and the actual activation/deactivation of the solenoid will be off. A brand new one can be off a few degrees but you correct for it.

[@JP-sd2cw]

@@Jon.Rushing oh I get it he’s just making up for the off calibration by offsetting it, thanks!

While somewhat surprised you worked on your anniversary, I'm not really, given your care of running a good business! A company owner and boss is his own fool 🤡 , I know there is no time off and the work day ends only when you're sleeping and even that's often interrupted, vacations minimal and very planned ahead! but you have to be that way to stay afloat and keep everyone happy, unless your way up the multi-millionaire tree with near limitless income and can bleed cash like mad at whim. then folks like that still end up unhappy and have issues galore.
