In this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie talks with Julian Finbow, RSE, Service Tech Support at Swegon North America, and Principal at Finbow Inc., about the different types of defrost methods used in commercial refrigeration systems. Julian explains how electric defrost, hot gas defrost, and cool gas defrost work, along with their advantages, challenges, and energy use. The conversation also covers defrost termination controls, mechanical and digital defrost time clocks, managing head pressure in large rack systems, and real service experiences showing how adjusting defrost schedules can improve temperature control and reduce frost buildup in refrigeration equipment. Gary and Julian discuss the different defrost methods used in commercial refrigeration systems and how each one affects performance and efficiency. Julian explains how electric defrost, hot gas defrost, and cool gas defrost work, along with their benefits and challenges. The conversation covers defrost termination controls, mechanical and digital defrost time clocks, the importance of head pressure during hot gas defrost, and real field examples showing how changing defrost schedules can improve temperature control and reduce frost buildup in refrigeration systems. Expect to Learn: How electric, hot gas, and cool gas defrost systems work in commercial refrigeration. Why defrost termination controls help improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary heating. How mechanical and digital defrost time clocks control refrigeration system operation. Why proper head pressure is important for reliable hot gas defrost in large systems.
