You don't want to see the pics of when it got back to him. :eek: It looked like they rolled that thing all the way to TX. :ohcrap:


I'll have my 24/7 rig back up next week, if you guys quit livestreaming, and will try and post some nice shots of the unit.

Yes the box was beat all to hell and back when it got to him. Terrible I tell ya. Not sure on the condition of the unit though. He hasn't said anything. I boxed the internal box real nice so hopefully nothing bad. I'll upload the pics tomorrow, but be prepared for shock and awe thanks to what brown did for me. :laughing:

Ya, but when I asked him about the first one he gave me an interesting tid bit of info. He says there really isn't anyway for the oil to transport itself back into the compressor without refrigerant carrying it there. This is for a single stage only. Cascades have way more coils and places for the oil to get trapped and settle.

Here's what he told me to do. Start it on day one or 24hrs, whichever I want. Turn it on for 1-2 minutes. Let it sit for 30 minutes or more. Rinse and repeat while running it a touch longer each time. He said 5-6 cycles was perfect and would ensure the compressor won't burn up while getting any loose oil in the compressor. :thumbsup:
