GOOSENECK DELIVERY!

Picked this unit up on November 8 (see Gooseneck PhotoStream posted earlier), started on it a couple days later. I’m en route to Texas right now to deliver. We crammed a lot of equipment into a very compact space-PICTURES OF THE COMPLETE UNIT COMING SOON-and there were some unexpected headaches:
  • a rather large leak in the trailer roof!!! Discovered it after a couple days of rain AND after the finishes were in place. A tough discovery late in the game and we had to literally re caulk the entire roof. Haulmark claimed that insulating the trailer with closed cell foam nullified the warranty. And they say you’ll NOT discover a leak with closed cell.
  • a HUGE problem getting a rotary screw compressor. VENDORS, if you don’t have it-DON’T TELL PEOPLE YOU DO!!! A big thanks to Scott (?) @ Sullivan Pelatek for saving the day and sending a fantastic rotary screw unit. We WILL BE ordering more.
  • a small Large leak at the reactor in one of the recirculation lines on reactor (1) on D-Day! HUGE mess but the guys caught it quick and cleaned it up.
  • then, another fitting not completely tightened along one of the Graco Air lines in the Hoses was discovered. Easily remedied & NO mess. We like those problems
  • next, on D-Day, the fuel filter on the generator was BARELY hand tight from the factory and it leaked and made another mess.
Regardless of the issues, and we see them with every unit, we are very proud and excited about this unit, it was IME’s first Double (my 5th) and considering the Thanksgiving Holiday, the guys pulled off a nice build in a very short period of time considering the detail required for a unit of this nature:
Thanks to Jason, Darryl, and Daniel for putting a lot of heart into this unit! Looking forward to more.
