How to inject the dye into the air conditioner?
1 Follow the air conditioning hoses to the low side air conditioning fitting. Unscrew the cap. 2 Attach the tube that is connected to the dye canister to the Schrader valve that was exposed when you unscrewed the “L” cap. 3 Unscrew the bottom of the dye canister to allow dye to flow into the system.
What to do if your air conditioner is leaking dye?
Since refrigerant cannot get out of the system on its own, it must be leaving through a hole somewhere. In order to repair the air conditioner, you will need to find the leak by injecting ultraviolet dye into your AC system. Follow the air conditioning hoses to the low side air conditioning fitting. Unscrew the cap.
Why is my air conditioner condensate pump not working?
The reason this happens is a safety measure to prevent the pump’s water reservoir from overflowing and causing puddles all around your home. If your condensate pump is not pumping water out or not working as it should, follow these step by step directions. Step 1. Turn off your air conditioner.
Are there dyes that are bad for the a / C system?
Co-solvent based dyes can impair the properties of the A/C system’s lubricant, resulting in diminished viscosity and lubricity. For example, dyes formulated with the co-solvent Aromatic 200 are detrimental to the operating parameters of oil due to its low viscosity. Another co-solvent often used by dye manufacturers is NMP or N-menthylpyrrolidone.
