rolling are you i can't see the light
all right well it's a beautiful day so we're gonna
go inside and work on whole room water cooling but first
it's time for a haul video yeah baby
hall time
so here it is so much fun stuff
this is from my trip to home depot actually the vast majority of this stuff
has nothing to do with whole room water cooling
some of it is for the hard pipe hard pipe build that's upcoming some of
it is just general supplies in fact the only thing for whole room is actually
this uh abs cement so we need that
and yeah the rest of that can go aside for
now then oh this is our new lab by the way i actually complained about our lab
breaking on a previous uh previous whole room water cooling so road watched that
and they're like hey we have a new lab coming you should try it so it's modular
so you can actually take apart all the pieces if it breaks which is kind of cool
all right what else we got here all right these are some pleats pleats only these
are for the mechanical filter these
are some uv sterilizer tubes
a pleat is um
think that's a bleep you know what's a bleep
okay
uh then we've got our lifeguard mechanical filter so this is from
lifeguard aquatics it's for ponds but i talked to them about it and they
basically asked me what's your flow rate what's your overall volume of water etc
etc etc and we agreed that the best way
to keep junk out of the system and remove the junk that's in there is one
of these bad boys and the best way to keep anything from growing in the future
is one of these bad boys so i'm gonna be putting these two
uh the sterilizer and the filter in
series in our loop then
i apparently didn't learn my lesson the first time also i couldn't really find a
particularly better option
is that a new reservoir it is exactly the same reservoir that we
bought last time again but this time it was on sale
maybe for a reason unboxing skills are rusty just like our
last reservoir
all right let's open this bad boy up
the first step is to put these guys together
excuse me we're all about the maturity here
really it doesn't it doesn't look that big on here well i guess the size of the
box would have been an indicator oh look it's an open-ended glass tube i know
what these are for small mammals right
that okay well i don't think i was supposed to take this off yet oh we're ruining it
already there's an o-ring i don't know where it goes
i got this
oh
oh maybe it goes here
no oh it's a compression fitting so i
should probably
use it as one wait what
i think this is supposed to go through here
no i don't think so though
over open end of quartz sleeve
until entire gasket is about one quarter inch of your seal oh i see coupling onto
cap
lightsaber is looking at me carefully insert quartz sleeve into
bottom receptacles inside the center housing grow up ed
all right hey this is go oh crap
sorry i didn't have a position just right there
carefully match pins
of this to this match in what way
oh god oh no it's okay i can't even oh there it is
well that was easy i just pushed harder i think the cord goes in
there oh oh i see why they want me to use lube
okay so that's a pleat you know the number of
people who offered me soldering lessons after my last video you know what the
funny thing about that is is most people were telling me to do it the
way that i normally do it but i specifically looked up a video on the
internet for how to solder to make sure that i like kind of did it the way that
you're supposed to so that i wouldn't get a bunch of people giving me soldering lessons all right
i am feeling good about having filters and
live things killers on my system here so
the mechanical filter is first which means this
goes into so the out goes into the in
with this glue i bought it's just if this one gives me a
refreshing spritz off at the end it's gonna be probably like super poisonous
browsers
how am i gonna get this open
holy crap
i think you've glued the cap on this is not a prank
yeah we legitimately need it open
i feel way less bad about not being able to do this now
so brains versus brawn here
maybe if we actually use a tool open
well so much for that yeah
so after all that taryn opened it that's right tearing the weakling
wait but whose idea was that i was actually no
i was gonna do it i couldn't find them
but i was gonna do it it's actually your eyes
i did fetch them thank you okay i'm sure that no matter how i apply
this uh the internet will find me to be wrong and stupid so i'm just gonna wing
it okay so we'll do some
i here i've been outed as not a handyman i know
the shame oh it was a shame thought of changing my
name what's in a name
and i got downhearted
every time that i but not in front of the kids you can
probably pull a fart sound effect from one of the other
ones from today that's what taren wanted to use to open
the clue did he really yeah oh my god
yeah brains over brawn my ass my friends you will actually know less about water
cooling an entire room simply by watching this video than you did before you
started it could be that you have so much knowledge in this
one video that it's just pushing out all the old information
out of their heads that was what i meant
uh we're not sure yet we're just sniffing blue right now yeah we're high
on fumes our filter assembly is complete so i
never actually gave an explanation of what all of this is supposed to do so
this right here is going to filter all of the physical debris so any of the the
dead bodies of the junk that we have growing in there now or or did because i
gave the entire loop a blast of iodine concentrated iodine liquid a little
while ago that should have pretty much nuked whatever's in there so this is
going to as all that stuff gradually makes its way out of the blocks and
everywhere else that it's stuck this is going to filter that crap out then we
have replacement pleats for when this inevitably gets gummed up and i need to
put new ones in there once it's running and everything's clear i
should rarely if ever have to replace these pleats
this guy right here is going to keep anything else from ever growing again so
as the liquid comes through the system this has a uv lamp inside that is going
to sterilize all the water that passes through it so this
is my one-two punch that is going to keep the loop clear now that or well
once it is clear again well we'll clean it and then clear it keep it clear one
two punch doesn't seem like the pleat would do
everything though all right so i'm back
um 20 bucks later i have activated filter
carbon which i don't know there were like a bazillion different kinds of
carbon and carbon mixtures and find out what's up with this whoa okay it came
out real fast so that's carbon
minus media group they don't know what funnels are you know what let's get everyone
disconnected from the whole room loop and then we'll get in there
yeah and turn this off
uh which off the computer uh oh [ __ ] i'm leaking
okay good just like that can you move and i'll do it
sorry i had to film oh what's going on hold on
okay uh okay i need the bucket in the bathroom
are you holding it yep oh no karen can
you get like paper towels or something no idea
okay okay all right
oh it's an o-ring so i was trying to take off the quick release ah it's got
me in the eye iodine is good for your eyes
everywhere it's actually quite horrible
probably okay
um okay we need to get all the other systems off the whole room loop oh
because it's gonna be great because it's gonna be draining
so it's just mine and brandon's and taran's left which is more than half of
them
i'll just hold this
yeah i'm going to need more paper towels i have this whole thing a paper towel oh
god 30 hits and the ship hits the fan
i don't why isn't this uh sealed
o-ring failed
uh yeah we'll have to replace the fluid well i don't know if you should save
this one okay mine's all ready and i filmed it
that's okay guys we got this i'm terrified of oh it's
what it stopped it stopped yeah doesn't make any sense well i'm sorry but it did
i'm just reporting what's happening it's no longer leaking it was leaking uh
problem solved pretty good there well what do you think happened
because the o-ring popped out here
i didn't do anything i just held it oh
whoever assembled these fittings
compressed the o-ring it's a miracle this didn't leak before
so who assembled it who do we not just me other people as well no i
think you did all of the actual no because it's not here
it's here i also got david to help all right
i'm sure blame the guy isn't here yes
and can't defend himself
okay it could be either of us
i mean technically speaking neither of us have
ever had any experience i thought we were done with this whole project
you guys are still fiddling with it it's because it's not done yet
yeah i got that your system can turn
back on now okay well i turned it off the power
supply because that's all i could do
well it was important for me to film what was happening
all right so the carpet's wet and sockets wet as well
wet socks are the worst Corsair h80i gt and h100i gtx all-in-one
liquid coolers make your CPU run cooler and they make your computer look better
too and you don't have to deal with all of
this so for the last month or so we've been
flushing the system uh periodically putting fresh well with the shower head
on putting fresh water into it um what
i've observed since then is that while before
with our reservoir in our tubing ended up looking like this in the last four
weeks and this happened quite quickly in the last four weeks the new tubing we've
added has stayed completely clear which means it looks like whatever was living
in our system is no longer being dispersed throughout it so that's a
really good sign so what we're going to do then is we're going to power down the
whole thing drain the whole thing because we've got all of the systems
running independently now then what we're going to do is we are
going to put our inline filter in we are going to
give it another blast of iodine
and we're going to put our reservoir back
and then i think we're good to go i think that's it we're actually done
unless something else unless something else breaks thank you all the systems
are good everything is going
now is the time to introduce our sterilizer
so i'm going to go ahead and plug this bad boy in
uv sterilizer so you can see the light is on
which is probably good
to take care of all the microbes that i was not aware
of before that apparently
live in ethylene glycol so this
is just our corrosion inhibitor this time around this time i don't think that
it's a biocide because it's not
apparently i'm an idiot
thanks taran helpful let's uh let's
finish topping her up now that it's blend yep okay i'm coming back up
wait wait we need two more seconds of water
oh god i hooked it up in reverse again this is cold
and this goes through the top which is right okay
