Re: How to check leakage?
Be more patient, this is not a telephone help line forum.
The only way that I know of is to destroy the chest to gain access to the coils then pressure test with nitrogen.Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK

Normaly they leak in the bottom of the box due to corrosion on the pipes. Remove the bottom insulation and pressurise the unit and check. 99% of the time it is not viable to repair them. It will work out cheaper in the long run to just buy a new one.
