I have a very small fridge about 2 cubic feet i suppose,its a portable unit.Its stopped cooling and clanks as if theres nothing left to compress.
I took the top off & it has a brass pipe with a brass screw cap.I havent taken the cap off but i suppose there will be a valve there?
As it has a recharge or charge pipe (i hope thats what it is) would it be possible to ask a garage or clima center to recharge it??Everywhere there are adverts offering car climatisation re charges.There arnt many or any for fridges unless i call & have someone come along in his van to the boat,that might be expensive
Since i found its not cooling needless to say i havent seen one van in any port that deals with cooling!!Before there was always one about,just now im not aboard my boat,ive headed north to recharge with local beverage.
The brass cap looks to be the same size as a car tyer valve could it be possible to use a pump to suck in cooling liquid then pump it into the system??
What sort of pressure are cooling systems recharged to??
