I would think in a commercial application forced air condensers would be used due to the high ambient temperature of commercial kitchens plus i know folks have mentioned chest freezers but they are most likely opened a few times a month but in a heavy duty kitchen it could be every 5 minutes
@@joeyf504327 yep, but in this case there’s an employee scheduled to stand knees against that thing leaning into it for 4 hour shifts. Not the perfect setup for their application.

I never liked the idea. Doesn't reject heat as well as a standard condenser, hurting efficiency as well as being harder on the compressor. They do this because it's easier (and cheaper) to package the equipment for shipping if there isn't an external condenser.
I bought one of those ones on amazon for a decent chunk, Im planning on using it for diags, how often do you use it and what use cases has it served for you? Those things are pretty expensive
I use it almost daily. Definitely will pay for itself if you use it in hvac units electrical section. You’ll be able to show customers isolated wires that are overheating cuz of failing contactors before they fail. I use it for duct temp output on hvac units and a lot for hot side stuff.

i don't know about that. never have troubles with those units. They been doing it that way for many years.
- No Condenser to clean.
- Reliable units.
