Great work Jumper man. That place is a pandoras box nightmare.
Thank you!! It really is 😂😂😂 Thanks for watching & commenting! 🔧⚡️
This boiler room is nightmare fuel 😅
💯💯💯😂😂😂
that building needs a ton of money put in to repair, upgrade and rebuilds, kind of crazy
Bro I love the long videos great quality and great information thank you soooo much especially with the LG bro I had to work on those yesterday with watching your videos I knew exactly what to do.
Glad you enjoy the long videos and find great information. That's awesome with the LG equipment. Those things are tricky. Definitely builds confidence after watching some videos and having some sort of plan when getting to the next job. Thanks for watching brother 🙏🔧⚡️
Oh my goodness.
When I saw that pump shaft start to leak, I just said: "Oh my G..!"
I would have been so upset at that point.
I have watched many videos of you dealing with this place and you show great patience with the bull$#!t you have to deal with this nightmare.
Five nights at “Laars boiler room”😅 The seals are getting destroyed by thé dirt in thé system I think.
Enjoy your stay! 😂😂😂 There is a possibility of that but the pump casing is so corroded inside. It's time for new pumps even if they are getting rid of everything next year. Can't have people getting rained on in the lobby. Next thing a piece of the ceiling will fall of them and that will cost a lot more than a new pump lol thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️🤙
Boy that place is a nightmare of problems, and they don't have blueprints of the building
It really is and correct. No info on this installation at all. Nobody knows where those pipes even go for those pumps. Wild. Thanks for watching 🔧⚡️
Looks like a neverending Story with those Pumps.
Facts haha thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
The complete install screams a lack of maintenance. I think they did it for years by themself and now its over the heads and you can try and fix it.
You definitely should not be going through so many seals on those pumps so quickly?? Does this hotel monitor their water quality in the loop system? I’m betting the water is probably really corrosive or acidic and that’s what’s causing your seals to rot out or fail have them check the water quality or the water, those types of systems need water treatment
Facts. The pump casings look terrible and are eaten up from no water treatment. This installation goes back to 2011. I agree with your comment. Water quality is so bad that the pump specialist knows exactly where which pump comes from due to the poor water quality lol Thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
Time for somehting new! Even though they are getting rid of everything next year, it just too much of a liability at this point. Can't even imagine the ceilings where all the water was leaking from over the years
Great video. Thank you for sharing. This boiler is nightmare ^_^
Thank you! Any time and thank you for watching. It really is! Haha 🔧⚡️
Finally on time🎉😅
That was quick! Haha thanks for watching! 🙏🔧⚡️🤙
Cheap always costs more 😂 wow that was a lightning reply 😂
When saving money goes wrong. Save now//Pay layer 😂🔧⚡️
Fast like the service we provide! Haha thanks for watching! 🙏🤙
very good and Ilike very mutc your video !!!!!
Glad you liked the video & thank you! Stay tuned for new videos every week🔧⚡️
@@JumpermanTech je sais ça fait un moment que je vous regarde ..... juste un peu surpris que dans votre si beau pays ..... vous avez des installations aussi abimées .... vous avez un métier pas si facile .....🙃😊😊
They are definitely losing if they don't listen to your advice.
💯💯💯 & they lost big time on this one. "When saving money goes wrong" 😂
Thanks for watching!
It's like you guys spend your career in one of three buildings
Bet that when the guys come into do the new installation. Will want to know where all the pipes go to.
Facts! Thanks for watching 🙏🔧🤙⚡️
Id run some flow calculations. Can burn a seal up pretty quick if your not moving enough water. The pressue difference across didnt look like very much in the video. Just an idea.
Well job security jmt you the engineer for the job😂
wonder if all those seals blowing is because of the water feeder being bypassed and the pumps being backwards ?
Is this the place where the pumps are fighting each other? Maybe that's causing seals to blow out, due to the pressure of the flows fighting each other?
By the way Jumper man, notice the hand-drawn arrows on the heat exchanger box at 25:29. What is up with that? They don't correpsond to the diagram you showed at 12:11, so I'm wondering if someone has done some sort of... I dunno but some cludge bypass hack? Could perhaps explain the pump direction? I mean it makes no sense at all...
Or perhaps the diagrammed heat exchanger is another style of heat exchanger? What if the exchanger with the arrows is another model where the input and output isn't on the same side as in the diagram, but rather the opposite side? So straight instead of 180 degree turn?
I noticed that. They drew that not knowing how the heat exchanger actually works. Must be the same guy who wrote "easy work" on the pipe elbow 😂
It's actually the same type of heat exchanger and they just didn't know what they were doing. Hence the condition of this boiler room 😂
@@JumpermanTech Oh wow. So they just assumed the pipes went straight through and then installed the pump accordingly. Man that's messed up.
@@GackFinder That is correct!
I see you retiring there Nice job JMT with my favorite helper Chris ...That warning sign should read , WATCH YOUR ASS instead of your head Thx
Aren’t those bolts supposed to be to be tighted to a certain foot pound with torque rachet?
There’s must be sabotage in this building 😮
😻💚💜💚
💜🔧⚡️
what a mess
💯💯💯
i am sorry, i am not from US. but if you closed both feed and return, why not opem the nuts on the coupling on the right side of the pump?. Would be so much easier. i get the feeling your videos is more like training videos. Is your personell that far out on mechanical prinsipal?? if this is the case i need to come to US to work as a hvac technichian
Omg. How does that cheif engineer keep his job
👀😬😬😬!!!
Great job. Buy yerself a hammer..lol
Don't tear up handles..lol
I have a hammer in the truck but my linesman is a multi tool at this point 😂😂😂 Need to get that out next time. Thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
Omg you can hear it squealing
I know! It didn't even make that noise before the rebuild. Now the motor rotating sounds horrible! Terrible work! Thanks for watching 🔧⚡️
You should look into getting some better manufactured seals !!! Or change pumps like everyone s saying !!! 😊😊😊
It's another company who rebuilds these pumps. A pump specialist. The casing of the pump looks eaten up and new seals just won't cut it anymore as this last one only last 2 months. Time for new pumps as I recommended! Thanks for watching 🙏🔧⚡️🤙
Poor design and layout, poor and insufficient documentation, poor and postponed maintenance. Yep, this place is always an entertaining watch! And this place being the same place as the York FCU explains so much. Seems like there's a lot of skimping going on.
I agree. It makes for good content at the least 😂 Yes, the same spot as the York FCU's. Facts. Incompetence & bubble gum repair jobs lol thanks for watching my friend! 🔧⚡️🤙
Your videos are like a train wreck. I want to look away but can’t. They give me anxiety.
Where do you even find the parts to fix these jobs? My gosh. Like the appropriate gaskets.
Maybe it's time to consider a different pump manufacturer.
Bell & Gossett is a great manufacturer but the rebuilds are done by other small pump specialist and I doubt they use OEM seal kits. No water treatment also plays a role for sure but I hear you with that! Thanks for watching 🔧⚡️
@@JumpermanTech Out of curiosity, what kind of water treatment would you propose for this type of installation? I don't know much about the water quality in the US as I live on the other side of the planet, but when I was in NY some 10 years ago I noticed how heavily chlorinated the tap water was. Chlorine and steel pipes don't go well together, I hear.
@GackFinder Honestly, I dont do any type of water treatment as usually they have seperate water companies but they need something to prevent corrosion by keeping the PH levels balanced so the pipes don't deteriorate internally like in this location. It is not only the boilers but the large air handlers here as well that use hot water and chilled water from the absorption chiller/heater. Some sort of "corrosion inhibitor" for the boiler loops should do but I'm not 100% on that. I would do more research on it if they asked me to help but it's not my area of expertise. Definitely a lot of hack jobs and no maintenance/treatment and that adds up over time. Hello to the other side of the world!
What ratchet set is that ?
For this set, I kind of made it up. It's made by Husky from Home Depot. I got two small socket sets. I got a 1/2" Husky drive and got 2 sets of 6 point long impact sockets. SAE & METRIC. This set is for larger nuts and bolts. I have a smaller complete set that I use in this videos bio. Thanks for watching!
Each socket set comes with 11 sockets
The drive is titled as "1/2 in. Drive 100-Position Low-Profile Long Handle Ratchet"
The sockets are titled as "1/2 in. Drive Standard SAE 6-Point Impact Socket Set (11-Piece)" and the other set is the same but instead of SAE, its METRIC
The people Castellano Motors are a shit show now. Damn shame what the charge for inferior work. They are basically painting it before fixing it.
No wonder every building needs an engineer. The only problem is that everyone takes the test. Passes but has never been in the field and don't know shit. They get caught up in the title.
I go to buildings all the time and engineers act like im the dumb one.
Castellanos rebuilt the seal on the last one and the sealed failed in 2 months. I thought they were expensive but their prices seem fair now because this time, I brought it to the engineers pump specialist as he vouched he would get it in faster and for a better price. As far as timing, it was basically the same but he charged a LOT more than Castellanos actually. Almost double the price! Said one price then changed the price when the job was done for a higher one and it leaked on the 1st day of installation! Crazy. When saving money goes wrong. Most engineers don't know much and I hear you with the clueless statement. I've felt the same before. I am also a licensed operating engineer but I actually have field experience to back it up. Never got a job with that though as I want to be out in the field and not stuck in a building watching movies. Still studying every week and trying to better myself. Unfortunate series of events here, but it is what it is. Time for something new! Thanks for watching brother & stay safe out there 🔧⚡️Always appreciate you 🙏
@@JumpermanTech yeah I love the field way better. You get too complacent stuck in a building.
@sherwinalvarez7365 Facts. Same. It's a good job with benefits but that's a long term thing. Once you get in, you never leave. Maybe in the future but not for now. Enjoy the rest of your weekend! 🤙🔧⚡️
@@JumpermanTech I bet the seal surface is bad and there just slaping it in there and sending it.
@oldblueaccord2629 Facts. It's all eaten up. I told them no more rebuilds after the last rebuild only lasting a few months but they went with another rebuild with their own pump specialist. Came with a 1 year warranty but leaked upon start up. Unreal 😂
You are very bossy, you should try asking 😉.
I hear that. Good thing I'm the boss 😁 Thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
