    Refrigerant System leak Sealant usage??



    Would like advice and comments on the use and success of System leak sealants.

    We have a heat pump system operating on 410a; it has now been operating over 5 years successfully. There seems to have developed a small leak in an inaccessible place. Have thought that possibly a leak sealant would solve problem. Would like to hear from anybody who has experience on using leak sealants and what the results were.

    pressure test each line individually to see which leaks, then is it possible to split the pipework to only replace a short section?
