RV cooling units CANNOT be refilled. They must be rebuilt and then filled with specialized equipment. IF the Ammonia has not leaked out and the Cooling Unit is bad, that means it is BLOCKED. Rebuilders cut out the Blocked tubing and weld new tubing in place and then charge the cooling unit. Doing the work yourself, rebuilds are a great way to fix your RV refer. Not hard to do, and they come with directions. Doug
They can be refilled. Check out the place in Kentucky that does the training. They sell equipment and provide training to do it.
READ my post. You cannot refill like a AC system. IF the unit has leaked, you must weld new tubing(fixing the leak) and then refill. IF the unit is blocked you must cut out the blockage weld in new tubing and then fill. They do NOT have a leak unless the tubing has failed. Doug
The RV dealer I spoke with mentioned that they could obtain a rebuilt or Aftermarket unit, if that's possible? I presume I would turn over the defective unit to them as part of the deal. Cosequently this is sent out to whomever does this procedure.
If I could search out/find this place in Kentucky or Elsewhere that remanufactures A unit that can satisfactorily replace my defective unit. This is essentially privy information to what the RV dealer is suggesting.
Maybe there is somebody here on the Forum that knows an can share this information and a little insight on how to go about resolving this in a cost efficient manner.
Thanks for the assistance & suggestions that have been submitted. It would probably be best to go with the system already installed rather than a household replacement unit which I haven't the foggiest idea of the trade offs involved. KC
