When I first started to learn refrigeration it was from an old German guy, the first freezer I walked into was -30 degrees. I was geared up and it didn't mean anything, I wanted to quit right on the spot. 20 years later I am glad I stuck it out.
OMG, -30°!? That's like, woah. @ 0°F, the moisture on the little hairs in my nose rapidly turns to ice as soon as I take a breath inside the space. I can feel the ice crunching around when I flare my nose in and out. I would freeze at -30°. Yeah, the double /triple layers don't really help much, you need to add heat of some sort. They make those hand warmer type of pads, but designed for the inside of a shoe. They work on less oxygen, but you have to keep them from being exposed to normal oxygen levels, or they overheat. Must haves if you need do anything in a room that cold.
@@HVACRServiceTech It took me 45 mins to change out a fan motor. The wires where like steel. Took the an guard off 15 mins then ran out. Double your time for everything and that's if you don't run into any problems. Then we walked accross the street to Arby's to grab lunch, still wearing our gear it was 95 out. You could see steam coming off our shit. I stood in line behind this lady and see goes where the did you come from OMG! She could feel the cold, let me take cuts just to get away from her. Lmaooooo
Yes, it has to be. That's the only possible cause for that type of ice formation. But I couldn't do anything to properly stop that except replace the box.
I actually didn't go further with the drain heaters. One thing I know is that it was beyond frezong cold in there. My toes we're screaming for me to get out as soon as I was done. I fixed the problem that they called in for, so I was good with that. I meant to not let any audio where I was mentioning that aspect of the call get in the final draft of the video. Sorry about that. Doing TH-cam videos, there is alot involved, takes up alot if time, and sometimes those little mistakes happen. Thanks for asking tho
Those stores are replacing all there walk-in cooler/freezers because of what’s happening there. All the outside moisture is penetrating threw the joints in the panels causing building up of ice.
2010 all new equipment has to be electronic fans .no more simple shade pole motors. D.C. fans fail like crazy in low temp Climate change activist are killing U.S.

@@HVACRServiceTech Also a regular walk in cooler don't even phase me. I could spend the night in one. Lmaoooo
Was there a leak on top of walkin box n leaking through ?
Yes, it has to be. That's the only possible cause for that type of ice formation. But I couldn't do anything to properly stop that except replace the box.
Wait... I am curious if you took care if the drain line heater problem? Seems that you left that alone. 🤔

Yeah, they definitely need to.
i use the 9721 motor. The customer doesnt want to pay for the ECM replacement, nor wait for the shipping
Yeah, this customer has $Billions-literally-, so they don't really care
I would imagine some customers will make you replace PSC/shaded pole with ECM no matter what.

WIF fan motors are the worst. So damn cold and nothing wants to cooperate easy of course.
Yes. They are the absolute worse.
