This is the one where I worked on the cooler over here. This is the freezer. It's got a little bit of drippage going on. So what we're going to do is use the thermal camera to try to find out why are we getting this drippage off the drain pan. We're having a good time now. Oh yeah. We're up here above the ceiling a little bit. That's nasty. Here is the ice that we got going on. See the ice in there? So we've got an accumulation of ice here in this drain pan. That's what we got kind of issue here. You can see we're water right there so it's working, the heat tape is working a little bit. For whatever reason though it's dripping down and getting that stalactite of ice down there. We're going to put this thing into a defrost and see if we can maybe get this thing to find out where it's dripping at. I insulated the bottom of it and did what I could do with it but obviously it wasn't good enough. Alright you can see the heat tape right here. It's working. That's for the drain heater which is what I was worried wasn't working. But it appears it is working. That's what I needed to know. So it's not just that. There's a little more. A little more to this. We've got a full-site glass, not that that would make a difference for your drain. You can see that it has been draining into the pan here. You see somebody put a piece of insulation tape here to not allow it to sink down and trap itself. Well, that's what's stuck right here. Let's go ahead and put this into it. It just came out of one. That's why it's still wet. See if we can clear a tile or something out. So we maybe make a little room. Now we're in a somewhat of a spot where we can kind of get some eyes on this thing. Now we've taken half the ceiling apart. You can see we've got heat tape right there that appears to be working. You can see that the elements are working. It's pretty obvious. Of course there's some major glare, but you can see it right there going over to the heat tape. The heat tape is working like it should. That's a good thing. I guess this could be a little disgusting, but we could try blowing this thing out. It's completely clean and clear. There's nothing in that drain line at all. So the question is, can we get somehow in there to get that to not drip? You can see the things leaking right along that drain. A lot of times it's just a matter of wiggling one thing to a different spot to get to another spot to try to get a spot just to wiggle your spot. All right, let's see if we can get up a little closer to that. Like I said, I completely reinstallated all this, hoping that I would take care of it because you can see some dripping over to the right. Yeah, look at all that air dripping. Yeah, that's just what I could do and hope for the best. That's what I didn't do very good. I think I see what's going on now a little better. Yeah, that's hotter and hotter and all. Look it out. That is a stubble pipe that is just jabbed in there and is that a worm or what is that? Yeah, that's just a mess. You have to cut this thing loose. There goes the freezer kicking on. Couldn't kill power. I'm going to try to cut the electrical tape off. Let's see if we can get this drain line out of here. You got heat tape in there. You got to be careful not cutting. I think we got some hodge podge engineering going on here. Look at that. Well, you know what? That's actually left over. Wow, that's got bad days. I got some bad days in front of it. Hard dripping is happening here because of that tube. The way it is. Oh, I think I just jammed a piece of copper into the stainless. Yep, that's what it is. That's a piece of copper jammed into the stainless. Nobody soldered it. That'll do it. That'll do it. Somebody half baked it. So we need to get some silver solder and solder that thing in there. All we're doing now is making water. In here to the freezer so it can freeze. Which is great. I got a better look at it. They didn't breeze that onto there. They didn't glue it. They didn't silicone it. They didn't do anything. That's not going to work very well. That's what it's been doing. It's just dripping on out. Probably because we got ice in there and everything else. So I've got to try that out. Flux it up really good and should be able to attach it. Not going to be fun. Not going to be easy. No, you know what? That's flared. So that was like that from the factory. What we're going to do or attempt to do is flux that up really good. Put most of the heat on the copper. And then push it over to the stainless to here. And don't move it while it hardens. And hopefully we'll have a good breeze. Clean cleanliness is everything. When it comes to brazing, soldering, welding. You name it. Put most of the heat on that copper if possible. Let's see if we got it. Just let it set for a sec. The last thing you want to do now is disturb it while it's trying to cool. I can't tell if I got the bottom or not. We just basically hit right here and then finally gave it over to that. And then kind of painted it once we got everything close to the same temp. I don't know who did this, who designed this, but they should have had a stainless steel stub on there. And they didn't. And when you can't hardly see what you're doing, I mean literally. Look what we're doing here. This is stupid. Sorry you got the wires there in the way. I can't do much about that. Got to see what the bottom looks like. Hard to see. I literally can't see crap. All right, I'll try to hit it from the bottom. Definitely don't want to be directly under it. What we did here, we got the underside taken care of. I'm going to pour some water in it, see what we got. See that drain pan out goes across there. That's the first time I've ever done that. So it turned out pretty good. Hopefully this doesn't want to move anymore. I don't want that cracking. Which it could crack. I mean, depends. I mean it just could. At this point, what do I have for options? I don't know. We're pretty good. I mean you can buy a whole new drain pan. That'd be a pain in the ass. Probably take forever to get it. Probably come the same half ass designed way. Alrighty, here we go. See if this thing works. I would have liked to have that flange actually in the pan a little bit better. But at this point, I'm pretty happy if this works. We're filled all the way up. Look at that. Looking nice. Something actually turned out good for once. Imagine that, right? It's Friday. I deserved it. There it is coming back over here. And it's draining down. Draining down in there. So, yeah, we got her, bud. We got her. I like that. Heater there on the left. I'd like to have that bent down in the pan more. I'm going to try that. But I don't know how well that's going to work. See if we can bend this down a little bit. Well, that's going to work out. But I think it's going to be a lot better than what it was. I'm not going to flex this pan or anything and test my joint. I mean, it's there. But things that are super hard can literally break because they're too hard. I want to make sure I get all residual crap out of this drain pan because the next problem would be the drain line. Our drain pan gets plugged up or the drain line does because of some residual crud in there. So we've got that all I see pretty clean. They did the last time was they just put that heat tape right there. We'll do what we can do with it. The other way seemed to work pretty good. So I'm going to try to copy what they did before and make it work again. Just trying to wrap the tape around something that literally has less than a half an inch of room between the wall and that is a little difficult. We now have it taped up. Good enough that we can wrap the foam back around it. I split that and just wrap it around it and then put wire ties on it. What I'm going to do is kick it on and make sure that it gets hot before I button it up. I don't want to deal with that not working. That would be a total bite in the butt after you get done doing all that. Looks to me that's working. Look at that. What I did to get this on there was just roll it through the backside here and then pull the thrust away over. That just is no easy way to do that otherwise. That's a little bit over size. What I was doing was just rolling it and lapping it onto it. Just made it that much thicker. I think usually three quarter inch thick is what we use on freezers and suction lines and stuff like that. I would have never guessed in a million years that they would have just put a flare fitting in there and nothing else to help hold it. That's just ignorance. But nothing surprises me anymore. I guess maybe I should have said it surprises me. Foam Jeep 18230. We've got one last little piece here with an extra wire tie and we ran a piece all the way across the bottom there. Good to go there. The only thing I didn't know, suction lines not insulated. I don't know how big a deal that is. Shouldn't be a big deal hopefully. I doubt it. I'd never noticed anything leaking off of it. There it goes. We've got this all back into place. All the screws are in. They're set for zero. Fan is came on because I had to feel getting cold when I first showed you that the eater was working. We are good to go from what I see. Kind of got all the little pieces of moisture wiped off the ceiling. Got everything off the floor, which would have been a mess. And it's going to wrap this one up. Alright guys, that's just a short one. Until next time, let's go get some more.
