...want to clean it up and use it this fall for my family and I's deer. The compressor ran fine but I opted to demo and go with a 10k A\C and a Coolbot so as to reduce the chance of failure and loss of meat. The placement of the a/c is my question. I understand that air flow is good for the meat...
...harvest was key. Even though it was almost 60+ degrees that day the breeze cooled the quarters in the field until we could get them into the Coolbot walkin cooler. If not for the cooler we would have skinned them out right away. Our non hunting brewer friend loves the steaks we have shared...
I am curious about how it works (the "How it works" section on the website does not explain it). Does the coolbot have a heater that sits next to the AC thermostat, or does it tie in to the AC control wiring?
...it again I would go into it with a better game plan. If you go to the link Cushman posted there's some good notes on the recommended construction. I think you could build a small one for around $1000 or less not including the AC and the CoolBot. Just depends on how well you want to finish it out.
It does have a heater lead that you put against the AC thermostat and wrap them together with aluminum foil. There's another lead that you put 1/3 of an inch into the fins of the AC to prevent icing up. Another lead hangs down for the room temp. 3 wires total.
I only have it on when game is in...
But they still run with a high back pressure. Just sayin! Dont know if the coolbot does defrost or not, not familiar with them. Just know what 28 years tells me. You can't get 400 horsepower out of a 200 horsepower motor.
Looking to build a walk in cooler in my storage shed this summer any do's or dont's and what would you say is the smallest you would build Also looking into useing a coolbot to cool it. Any input on those would be great also!
I have never heard of a coolbot till now. 28 years in the refrigeration business tells me to be very cautious. Air conditioning compressors are different than refrigeration compressors, in that they are made to operate at specific suction pressures(back pressure). In order to maintain 38F with...
Should work OK if you keep your saturated evap pressure above freezing. Otherwise you might have to put a defrost cycle on it. Air to air heat pumps run great down to 0 F.
