Walk-in refrigerators and freezers are very large, insulated, enclosed spaces used to store and/or display refrigerated or frozen food or other perishable goods. They are used primarily in the food service and food sales industry.
A Walk-in cooler is basically a large scale refrigerator – similar to what you have at home – except you can walk into this one! Every restaurant and fast food chain has a Walk-in cooler and it’s where they store all their refrigerated foods. Unlike a residential refrigerator though, a Walk-in cooler has a lot stronger refrigeration system that allows them to keep their food stored at optimal temperatures in order to meet certain FDA standards and to ensure that it passes local safety and food handling codes.

Businesses from a wide variety of market segments use Walk-in coolers from Floral Boutiques to Breweries to Medical Research Facilities. Walk-in boxes come in all shapes and sizes and depending on the business’s needs, a Walk-in box can come with a lot of unique add-ons and accessories such as thermometers and temperature alarms that monitor temperature inside the box. If a business needs more than just a Walk-in Cooler, they can order a Walk-in Freezer or a Walk-in Combo Box which features to sections inside the box, one cooler and one freezer section.

Walk-ins are constructed using panels. Walk-in Box panels easily lock into place via cam lock and can be installed right over most flooring’s (though you can purchase a Walk-in Box floor separately).

A typical Walk-in Box can range anywhere from thousands of dollars to tens of thousands of dollars depending on many factors such as size, horsepower of Refrigeration unit, add-ons, panel thickness, location (indoor and outdoor) etc.

    Hey jumperman great videos I’m currently at the tail end of my HVACR program and I have to say your videos are very help and gives a good insight on what day to day service calls look like. Thanks
  • @hecherr1121
    Thx for the confirmation. I've guessed from the start that it could be the capacitor when you mentioned that the compressor was trying to start. Right now, im in school for hvac and subscribed and definitely going to watch your service call videos to learn some more 😊.

    The proper and ( SAFE ) way to discharge a capacitor is to set your meter on D/C voltage and put your probes on cap, and It will slowly start to drain it. I won 50 bucks off a guy one time when I told him I could OHM out a capacitor and find out if it's good or not. He goes I don't give a fk who taught you refrigeration you can't ohm out a cap. So we go to his van he get's out a cap I take his meter set to DC and drain it. Then I go NOW I am going to set your meter to Ohms and use your 9 volt battery in your meter to charge this capacitor If it's good you will start to see the readings rise which it did because it was new. After he picked his jaw up off the ground and handed me 50 bucks he drove off highly upset.
