Drain walk-in freezer to well, then pump water across room to drain?

I want to put a walk-in freezer in a spot in my kitchen that has no floor drains. It's also a spot from which it would be pretty much not possible to run a drain line to a floor drain or to anywhere reasonable (like outside).

My idea: what if I run the freezer's drain line into a permanently-installed vessel/well behind the freezer, and then use a sump pump to automatically clear that well? It would pump the water through an overhead pipe and down the opposite wall, into a floor drain.

Has anyone seen this setup before? Is it a crazy idea?

High Compressor head temperature

Noticed one of the heads was really hot. Pressures and amp draw was good. Why is the head so hot?

Evaporator fan is making a metal on metal clicking nose when it engages. I'm trying to inspect, but can't access it. I assumed the whole compressor block would slide out, but I can't get it to move. What am I missing?

Would I risk a Freon leak if I unplug a broken hotel mini fridge? Chemically dangerous?

The Danby mini fridge in my hotel room ran ALL NIGHT and was so annoying. It has condensation in it and is constantly running. It’s not cold inside of it and I hear the coolant circulating through the fridge. Should I be safe just to unplug it? Or would I risk a Freon leak? I don’t want to ask for a room change because I’m way too tired from traveling. Thank you.

Mitsubishi ac only heating.

Hey folks. I got a mitsubishi split ac that is only running on heating mode. Frost on the high side. Any ideas at trouble shooting or just switch out the pc-bord? It's set for 18°C but I'm only getting like 28°c out and air in is 33°C

Walk In freezer line set issues

I’m having issues with the linesets in walk in freezers causing sweating and dripping water into the box. (On defrost). Complaints from both store managers and health department. So I’m asking if anyone knows how to deal with this issue?

I do insulate the suction line, but it is not always fixing the issue. Should I just wrap a whole roll of insulation on the pipe or is there any other solution?

Thanks a lot!
