The most shocking junker ever 

They'll change the entire box out IF they can just make through this next year.....it's always this next year 😂😂😂

That fan motor is technically an outboard motor now!

The best way to diet is just visit the kitchens of most restaurants. You'll never eat out again! Yeah, it's not just this place - the vast majority of them would make your skin crawl.

One of the most freeing moments in my 34-year commercial refrigeration career was when I realized I could tell the customer, "No, I'm not going to try to repair this piece of equipment. It has to be replaced. "

No mas! Thats one where you need payment same day, no checks!!! I wouldve thought hard about refusing service on that one. Thats the type of call where you fix it, 2 days later the compressor blows, and the next thing you know your getting a 1 star Google review amd blasted on Facebook because you "JUST fixed the cooler and now you want thousands of dollars more"

The fan spraying the water is to keep the produce fresh.

I saw one like this. It was an outdoor walk-in freezer that had a tarp bungee strapped over it and had been like that for a while. Ended up there were 3 layers of tarps when one wore out another was thrown over it. There were broken bungees on the ground around it. The heaters on the evap were no longer embedded in the fins and condenser fins were flattened over. There were a foot and a half long stalactites hanging from ceiling and ice piling up on the floor. It looked like the box was gonna fold in on itself from all the added weight. But I was called out because the door wouldn't latch! The closer was bad. I didn't even bother replacing it, i just omitted it. I told the owner he needed to go ahead and add another tarp because the other 3 had failed.

How can the Heath Dept. have been there doing inspections over the years and not red tag that box? What a joke!

Oh by the way Dave that just happened last night 😂!!!!!!

I couldn't agree more 😂 They've had their life out of that. And some.

Looks like 98% of coolers I work on 😅. Good Video Dave .

I had a service request on a similar box recently. I walked away and said we were the wrong company to service them. They asked if I had a referral. Dude, I couldn’t do that to my worst enemy!

Owner let’s call this NorCal Guy maybe he will tell us we don’t need a new box and new equipment like the other 34 other guys that have been here 😃😅🤷🏻‍♂️

Looks like that box was rode hard and put away wet

Don't forget to leave a service sticker on the door of the box! Right under the hook and latch. Wow, this was the most super janky box ever. Nice!

Dave you just polished the the turd of the year . I couldn’t stop laughing those weren’t fan blades they were propellers in water😂😂😂 How did they even have airflow in that coil? I don’t know.

You're MISSING UPSALES , you're FIRED !!!!

A bit of caulking at good as new 🤣🤣🤣

Know when to say when, CRACKS KILL !! ( COOLER BOXS"

No warranty on these kind of units

It’s that misting effect haha

Wow, that walk in was toast. I would not want to eat in that place.

Pre cellphone era, had a call on a box like that to replace a door sweep gasket because the mice had eaten the old one. 😂😂. I just left…

If my mother N law where a cooler......... 😅😅😅

When I see things like that I heavily question if they have the money to pay for service.

Dave Dave. It's Christmas. Before December 😂 on. That one call

Nice walk-in ice maker

The "Good, the Bad, and the CHEAP!" Dave

NorCal Dave your'e lucky! you've found a GOLD 😁😁😁 maybe quote for a whole walk in box.

As a repair guy that why I Don't like to eat out. Think about it

LOL. Throw that whole box out. 😂

Indoor refrigeration condensers dont even work on roofs in rhode island anymore. They just go off on high head pressure or dlt alarm when it gets 90+. Its almost like the indoor condensing units have a smaller condenser

Adiabatic cooling 😂😂

Old school swamp cooler 😂😂😂

Run away from that taco shack as fast as you can Dave!

Hahaha, great song bro 😂😂

What are you doing there? Youre never EVER eating there, thats for damn sure. Yikes. The Health Department should be shutting that pit of misery down.

Stash of Leak Lock in tippins

I love your videos man! Please keep them coming

That is one where you tell them they need to lift the pad lock, slide the old box out and then slide in a new box, then put the pad lock on the new box. That is hammered and is a health hazard. Too bad some of the inspectors will over look things like that but ding good restaurants for having caulking missing around the sinks.

Send Hack and Moe over with some spray foam and insulation tape. We can get another 5 yrs ….🤣

LMAO had one the other day just a beater. The evap was deteriorating big time very crusty. Customers just don’t get it they want you to be a super tech on what they got. Sometimes you just to say um no it’s a goner bro need a new one

👍💪🇺🇸❄️ brutal. Hands of stone

Oh man! Refer that job over to Hack and Moe, they will get another 2 years out of it.

Multiple offender! Time to play taps for that box.

Party’s over for that box. Time to change the whole thing

I got a call the other day for walk in cooler freezing up get there there “walk In “ was under some stairs they build a wall with plywood and 2x4 put a old walk in door and and plastic panels on the inside hung a walk evaporator in there and said they don’t know why it keeps freezing air gaps everywhere not properly insulated told them this would never work

😂 amazing, game over.

Unbelievable

So bad that Dave is at a loss for words. 😅 Poor Dave 😥 😎👍😎👍😎😎

Common equiment installed in Argentina done by the cheapest "hvacr tech". Then we should fix it the best we can -.-

Can you please tell us what restaurant this is so we don’t get food poisoning?

you would be surprised at how many chain fast food joints or restaurants have this same type of equipment...this looks like something chilis would have or KFC for sure...i have see it all in my 25 years of servicing commercial refrig...from local places to corporate chains...nothing shocks me anymore
