Air con question

(1/7) > >>

Andy A:
Had the Air Con re-gassed less than an year ago and the temp after it was done the air vents were around 5C. I will check what temp the vents are at tomorrow as it's now running warm.

I have searched for any sign of leaks with a UV torch and glasses but I can't find any. Is there any component in the Air Con system than can cause this other than a leak?

Thanks

tunnie:
High and low, pressure valves can leak as well. Replaced both of mine, still leaks.

I gas mine at the start of the year, lasts least 6 months. So it's now just an annual job   ;D

steve6367:
Valves, condensor, pump in that order in my experience.

Condenser tends to not be a slow process like you describe so I'd start with the other 2.

If all is well it should stay charged for years.

TheBoy:
Guessing I need a proper thermometer to measure vent temp, all I have is an IR one...

Andy A:
When I took both valve caps off, both of them had a slight hiss initially but nothing after that. I could clearly see the dye inside but no signs outside.

Wouldn't there be signs of dye around the valves if they were leaking?

Do you have the part numbers for the valves and is it best to buy genuine?

Thanks
