The Big thaw and lateral thinking.
Hi Guys!
So I am on call and Sunday morning I go online to look at one of our larger sites we look after.
No Alarms etc.,just thought it would be a good!
To notice one of the 2 large evaporative condensers on the Chill store was showing a low sump level Alarm. (Low water level ) to you or I.
Below is what I walked into.

This pipework is 1 1/4" ABS. Its now Sunday afternoon and what am I going to get hold of to repair it? As by now 1 Condenser was off and the second was rapidly running out of water.
Both Mains water fill lines had shattered.
With a huge help from the site VMU. Guys.
I was allowed to call out their oncall Hydraulic Pipeline fitter.
Who Made up the bellow pipe.
Subsequently I have found out most wholesalers carry little or no stock of ABS pipe and fittings.

And the plant can cope at present with the temp. repair.
