What's it like to visit Sterling Vineyards, Calistoga California
In March 2024 I visited Sterling Vineyards. Although I've been traveling to the Napa and Sonoma area for more than 20 years, I'd never been here. I was greeted by something quite amazing. Quality of the experience was every bit equal to the top theme parks in the world, and the wines were also world-class as well. I highly recommend anyone stop by here and definitely plan to spend more than an hour!

    Hello William. Great video but I don't see my problem I have 2 Vinotemp VT300SS dual zones. Both have the same problem. Top zones get cold and the bottom zones do not. Set for 50 and 55 respectively. Tops get there, bottom stays at 63 and 61. So continuously running. Lower fan is working on both units. I put frozen food packages next to all 4 thermostats and after a minute or so both units shut off. I bought both units (used) in February 2024 and they worked in the beginning. They were manufactured in 2017 (according to the stickers on the back of the units). Little by little the bottom of both starting to climb and now sit at the 63 and 61. I put thermometers in each zone and they agree approximately same 50/63, 50/61. Strange both units almost exactly the same time with same problem. I unplugged one of the units to see if the electric draw from same wall socket was too much. After 2 days, no difference on the plugged in unit. Can you help please? Thank you in advance, Jeff

    • @WilliamBennerJr
      @WilliamBennerJr 15 днів тому

      Hmmm. That's very strange. If the compressor is constantly running, then I would think the innards would get very very cold. If not, then either there isn't enough refrigerant in the system so it's not cooling enough. Either that or you're effectively "leaking coolness" (heat leaking into the system), either because your environment is very hot, or because the gaskets aren't sealing well enough (the rubber around the doors). Here's a related question. Does the giant internal plate "evaporator coil" inside getting so cold that it ices up? If so, then your gaskets aren't sealing and that's the problem.

      @@WilliamBennerJr Hi William. Thank you for replying. I had an appliance guy come over. He said the compressor was no good or it lost freon. I'm confused. I set the top zone as low as it goes (40degrees) I stopped it at 46 because I still had wine in it and didn't want the wine to get that cold. It would have gotten colder. And the zones are not completely sealed from each other so the top cold air would come down to the lower zone. How can it get so cold with low freon or compressor bad? We did notice the bottom fan was not staying on. Only short burst on and off. Could it be the fan?, thermostat?, or temperature sensor? They want 1500.00 to replace the whole system for each unit. I'm not convinced the compressor is bad. What do you think? Again, both units have the same problem. Strange. The units are about 4-5 years old. Thank you in advance, Jeff

    You can get the same sensation in some cars by rolling down just 1 window a little. It's like a pressure to a slight vacuum in your ears. My Model 3 Tesla doesn't do this, but I heard the Ys do.

    • @WilliamBennerJr
      @WilliamBennerJr Місяць тому

      It's a bit of a different feeling. The "windows down" creates a Helmholtz Resonance. The buffeting being discussed here is a compression effect, that will change frequency and amplitude, based on what the car is rolling over on the road.

      Actually the air suspension really helps. Newer model cars are much less of a problem. Nevertheless this affects all hatchbacks where the hatch is really horizontal. For SUVs that have a hatch, but the hatch is mostly vertical, this is not an issue.

      So many tones are available. I can't say it's purely like an acoustic because there are several switch position, several tone controls, etc. A lot to play with actually. Maybe too much. I must say, I just leave the tone control on my Fender "wide open". May as well only have a volume control, but that's just me ;-)

    I appreciate the teardown video. I would only say that it can be the blower and it can also be the rollers and pulley set inside. I think the issue is the fact that the lint catch is just badly designed on these Samsung dryers. Lint can fly like literally everywhere; it is bad at catching it. I found a bunch of junk in the blower area and cleaned it out. The noise got a bit better, but not fixed. I think the next thing is to get the replacement kit for the dryer belt, idler pulley and all that good stuff. I would not have known how easy it is to dive into the dryer if not for your video, so, thank you!
