RE: [BlindHandyMan] refrigerant
Unless your freezer is either extremely old and equipped with a charging port or is an extremely high end model and equipped with a charging port you are probably looking at a total replacement or a package compressor unit that comes pre -charged from the manufacturer. -Original Message- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Riddle Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 5:36 PM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: [BlindHandyMan] refrigerant Our freezer died.

Damn. I was afraid of that. Well I got the local AC guy coming out tomorrow to give me an estimate.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] refrigerant
Hi Robert, I believe in most places one needs to have a license to purchase refrigerant. If the freezer is low on refrigerant that means that you have a leak somewhere. That leak needs to be repaired or you will be throwing money away because it will leak out also. If air is mixed with refrigerant the freezer will not operate correctly. Once the leak is fixed the freezer will need to be evacuated with a vacuum pump before filling with refrigerant and possibly some oil for the compressor.
