Freezing machine for freezing pipes problem .

[scoobyru]

Hi all ,

Had a plumber friend thats come to me cause hes freezing machine is only freezing one head
when hes trying to freeze a pipe .

Has any one had any experience with these machines at all im due to pick it up next week so would just like a heads up .

He said it userly clicks but it isnt any more im wondering if there is like a solenoid valve or a 2 way valve thats switching between heads and its sticking .

any help would be great thanks .

I've repaired a couple ...mostly as they had lost gas (R407C)
Had one with poor control and the control module had to be replaced. It is a sealed unit and they insisted that I send the old one back before they would post the replacement out. Seems that they have a patent on it and are careful about letting spare ones onto the market as someone may take it apart and create a cheaper alternative.
