dup....
so is spectroline dye safe to use in an R-22 system? they claim it's compatible and has blessing of compressor mfg.
normally would not put anything but refrigerant and oil into any system. have spent too much time already looking for this leak. dye will find it, but will it also destroy the system?
dup....
I haven't had much luck with refrigerant dyes. Of course I only used dye a few times 20 years ago. Maybe they're better now, but I have the best luck with an H-10 and soap bubbles...
got an old H-10 that has not been used in years....
are you saying H-10 works better than newest heated diode detectors?
are you using Dawn soap for bubbles?
normally can find leaks with no problems... but got an old R-22 system with a leak that's eating my lunch. normally would not use dyes. but just about ready to for this one. purchased some Cal-Blue LT leak detector. willing to try out just about anything to keep from using dye.
The H-10 works very for me. I have three other types, the newest is a yellow jacket but the H-10 works better than the others...
I only use calgon leak detector soap bubbles... They work best for me...
thanks... did not know that about H-10 ... does Calgon, Cal-Blue LT work good as Big Blue?
just got through testing H-10 by calibrating with test sample and replacing cotton tip. ball is floating good, seems to be working like a champ. will give it a try on my problem R-22 leak.
tried selling my old H-10 last year on Craigslist ... no one wanted it because it was so old. sure glad no one jumped on it
