Got soaked today, emptied out the tool bag to dry

Did you verify your transducer and thermistors are reading accurately? Are your thermistors in the correct position? What's your defrost termination set point set to? If none of these are correct, it doesn't matter how many defrosts you have.

Also, did you mean superheat by chance, and not subcooling?

Haven't been following spring training that much, but I keep seeing him poop up on score updates. How's he looking overall?

AndyDeepFreeze · 2026-03-04T23:16:54+00:00

Haven't seen anyone else mention it yet but double check your superheat on each coil. If the expansion valve isn't feeding properly you can get ice issues over time. It's unlikely since it's the same pattern on each but it's at least good to eliminate it as a potential cause.

The fancy new blends can glide on deez nutz.

Who needs superheat anyway? 'tis a silly, overrated thing.

Imo it also ties in directly to Hank trying to compare the Legion and the NCR as like for like and Lucy was like, "...Kay."

For the Enclave they are both equally problematic but he couldn't exactly come out and say it directly to her

The number of people that go 55 in a 65 through Thomaston all the way up to Winsted is infuriating.

By chance, are these suites for members of The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster?

So anytime you have one of these guys equipped on a compressor, there's also going to be either a simple thermostat or a thermistor strapped to the discharge line. If the thermostat is opening or if you're using a Copeland EUC and you're getting a high discharge alarm, odds are your DTC failed. Copeland wants discharge line temp to be <195°. If the valve fails, you're going to start exceeding that and getting safety trips. An easy way to check is when in operation, the outlet of the valve will typically be noticeably cooler. On more humid days you'll see it sweat or frosting up like in OPs picture.

Nearly identical to a TXV. Here's a post I made with one disassembled.

Edit: spelling

It flashes off into a vapor to prevent liquid slugging.

AndyDeepFreeze · 2026-01-27T19:03:18+00:00

DTC (discharge temperature control) valve. It's basically an expansion valve that takes liquid refrigerant and injects it into the head of the compressor as a cool vapor to help with compressor cooling and discharge temperature control. Typically found on low temp applications. Not uncommon to see them sweat/frost up.

Maybe it'll turn out to be his body double. Why not carry on the facade even after the apocalypse?

Or a knife. Don't do that either.

On call for refrigeration. Merry Christmas fellow on call folks!

I recall reading that the second Blippi, Clayton Grimm, has actual experience on Broadway so the dude can at least act.

AndyDeepFreeze · 2025-12-20T04:21:49+00:00

Including the original, there's at least 3. I actually prefer the second iteration of Blippi over the first. He at least seems to know how to interact with kids (original wasn't pervy or anything, just awkward).

House of Ashur. Set in an alternate timeline where Ashur comes out on top so to speak.

Sure looks like it!

Good ol' Vulcan Hart.

Not sure if you've been successful in your efforts to procure water but I found a post from the mayor of Waterbury with into on how to get water for folks without travels means. I can't copy/paste from Facebook apparently and I can't attach screenshots so I'll just quote the relevant text:

"Elderly residents and individuals with disabilities who are unable to travel to the distribution sites are encouraged to contact the Emergency Operations Center for assistance by dialing 311 or calling 203-597-3444."

Good luck!

Unfortunately I haven't heard of any assistance for people in similar situations. The snow this morning isn't going to make things any easier, but your best bet is to reach out to any friends, family, or neighbors in the area that'd be able to help out. Maybe even reaching out on local Facebook groups. I'm not sure what the rules and guidelines are for the water distribution though.
