I hope he does. The only thing I love more than clean cars is coffee and I think matt's approach to it would make great videos. You could get Mr. Hoffman on a video too!
Fellow obsessed guy here. Also a master plumber. When you get tired of the noise from the poorly engineered drain pump on the Scotsman, throw it in the garbage with the ryobi pressure washers and buy a Hoshizaki ice machine. The pumps are whisper quiet and more reliable. You can retrofit a hoshi pump to a Scotsman if needed.
These are everywhere in Australia. Didn’t realise it’s uncommon outside of Australia. It’s also very expensive in Australia, you generally find them in workplaces.
I cut the hoses down in length so they flow downwards from the outlet to the unit, also you can adjust the time it is cycling to reduce the amount of power it uses. I have it turn on at 6am so it’s ready to use in the morning and off at 8pm.
Whoever gets to buy these houses and cars when Matt's done is getting the steal of a lifetime. At least in the short term. Some old man is going to be living in this house someday and this will need replacing. He'll have a mini heart attack when he gets that 5k quote and probably buy a Brita lol.
I would say set back the regulator to 250kpa and purge co2 in the install settings. Then get a measuring cup and dispense the leaver towards you and let it dispense of 15 seconds making sure it dispenses at 400ml. If it doesn’t dispense at the correct amount adjust the flow on the adjustment valve which is located at the machine where the connections are, where you were shows where all the plumbing is. If this doesn’t work then the carbonation pump needs to be adjusted. Which is located inside the machine. The running sparkling water pressure should be at 700-750kpa and chilled running pressure at 400kpa. You will need a technician to do this if it’s still in warranty, culligan America I think provide service for zip products in America. Hope this helps
Matt, big fan of your work and long time customer here. But there's something I have been wanting to say for quite some time. I really think that you are over-improving your house. I am not sure if it is worth it for you to install all these overkill upgrades in a very modest home in rural Florida. I, too, have high end kitchen hardware and Subzero + Wolf appliances in my house. But my house is a custom built boutique architectural house on the West Coast. I agree that we should enjoy life and not do "average", but all these high end upgrades on your house is akin to putting $15,000 HRE wheels on a Toyota Avalon. I am not saying that your house is bad. But the upgrades, renovations, improvements should match the value of the home.
Really appreciate the review and details. I've been obsessing and looking at these different systems for our kitchen. I have a homemade setup I use for sparkling water using a 5lb CO2 bottle and a beer regulator. I keep it in the garage and it would be nice to have something in the kitchen, but not for $5k+. Our local appliance place had the Grohe version and it also sputtered when I tried it.
Thank you for making this video! There's very little info out there about how these systems work out in practice. Did you ever work out the issue with the sparkling water coming out in spurts? I just demo'd one in a showroom and it did the same thing - I was hoping it was just an old unit that needed to be serviced, but if this is the quality one can expect for $5k, then forget it!
Somewhat off topic but the Opal nugget ice machine 2.0 works great for smaller homes and only cost 599. Purchase the machine from Best Buy with that 4 year extended warranty and you will not regret it
Have these all over my workplace along with larger scotsman icemakers and its the only way i survive. haha. they all have vents on the cupboard doors for ventilation. But i can understand not needing it for a home.
Thanks for sharing...I will have this when we do our kitchen renovation. I will take your notes into consideration. Also - GO GATORS!! Ocala resident here!
Will be interesting to see how long the internal water filter will last and good luck with supply chain issues from Australia . No way for $6500 installed.
Did you ever work out the issue with the sparkling water coming out in spurts at 10:28? I'm wondering if ZipWater customer service has been of any use.
Hey Matt, I have a question about your process. You mentioned that you're testing a lot of different home products/technologies, and you of course test a lot of car care products. I'm wondering how you track all of the information you learn about these products. Is it as simple as Excel workbooks, or do you have a more elaborate system for planning out these projects?
random question: just bought the 5" Rupes from the website for detailing two of our cars. what should I do if I can't yet swing the purchase of the Rupes nano? I'm sure I'll run into a situation where I'll need it to fully detail.
@@jrose7381 gotcha. thanks for the advice! I also bought the 3” backing plate for the Rupes and 3” pads. know it’s not really meant for it but I’ll try it.
Bro people bitch at you on the prices of the products you sell but they have no clue the efforts you take to perfect high end things. Worth every penny since you test and go through headaches.
Doesn’t look like the cleanest install below the faucet… could have probably taken up half the space and put a false back on the cabinet so you can use the front part still
Mr. Morgan. This is your HOA. I’m sorry but we have declined your request for the color of your cabinets. We have sent you new request forms with colors we have “suggested” for you. You won’t receive these new request forms for 3 months and must cease ALL work until further notice. We are expecting you to have your kitchen fully completed by the end of the week or we will file a lawsuit. Our community will not tolerate unfinished kitchens! Thank you Richard (tiny) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Insane!! Move to scandinavia, and you will have the cleanest water directly from the tap in the World 😁 Actually why dont start a europe segment of Obsessed garage? Like Ryan friedlinghaus did with west coast customs.. well with limited sucsess.. but i think the detailing world is different in form of taste
Matty, Are you sure this is HOA Approved? Freaking clowns...... you would think that they would come out and talk to you about what you wanna do because you’re only going to make the neighborhood improved....
Imagine how much money you would spend of products if you were into coffee :)
Ones of dollars.
I hope he does. The only thing I love more than clean cars is coffee and I think matt's approach to it would make great videos.
You could get Mr. Hoffman on a video too!
I roast coffee. Lots O money....lol

I believe it’s a test house to try new things before he builds a custom home
Did you watch the intro? He explained that.

You don’t have some scrap pieces of dynamat to throw on the inside of the cabinet door?
Have you considered the Grohe Blue Chilled & Sparkling system? it's basically the same but without boiling water.
I haven’t seen that one in person yet.
Hey Matt, what system are you using for your house now?
I'm going to do another one of these at some point soon. I'm really thinking about tearing out my cabinets and dialing in this house.
Holy shit Matt, let me know when you eventually sell - I'll buy your house, any house that you dial in... haha
What whole house filter system do you use?
Kinetico
Will be interesting to see how long the internal water filter will last and good luck with supply chain issues from Australia . No way for $6500 installed.
Doesnt that thing need some air flow? Seems like putting doors over it would make it really hot in that cabinet.
You're definitely going to need to vent that cabinet with active fans, it's not nearly big enough to keep that chiller from burning up.
It ended up being okay.
Did you ever work out the issue with the sparkling water coming out in spurts at 10:28? I'm wondering if ZipWater customer service has been of any use.
I did. It needed more adjustment.
Do they make this without sparkling
Yes, that is an option.
Hello Matt!! 1st for very first time. Keep doing great things.
it sucks that the hole will never be filled....
The LVP flooring looks legit
Ha, ha....
You probably mentioned this before but what brand of ice machine is that or model number?
I hit thumbs up when you said it was my house 😂!!!

@@jrose7381 so you’re saying the nano is essential? no way around it?
@@jrose7381 how should I get in the tight/narrow spaces then? just let them be?
@@jrose7381 gotcha. thanks for the advice! I also bought the 3” backing plate for the Rupes and 3” pads. know it’s not really meant for it but I’ll try it.
"I can do whatever I want" !
That needs additional air vents, your going to have problems with overheating
Great job Matt 👏
dude needs to start with a 4m+ house lol Im sure the upgrades now outprice the house
Zip, and your money is gone.....
That just made me spit out my drink.
I feel blessed to live in an area where the tap water is tremendously good. Another reason not to live in Florida!

All I see is 5000 worth of broken parts.
Where does all the money come from? 6K for a hot water dispenser?

Lol aww mann
who drinks softened water gross
How does your whole house water filter work ? Who installs it and what is the brand do you have to change a filter every so often
www.kinetico.com/water-softeners/
How can I figure out how much soap to put inside the foam cannon 1000ml
How much soap and how do you measure the amount
Put 250 ml of soap then fill the water to 750 ml. Don’t shake it turn the bottle upside down, back and forth.
if youre using a quality soap like gsf, adams, geon... 150ml of soap
@@RayNLA so it’s never completely full?
@@jjjjjjjjjjjhjjjjjhjj
That’s correct!
@@TorqueMediaau
You are absolutely correct!
Key word is “quality”
