Bergdorf Mini Split Air Con

[cohead]

Hi

Thought id buy one these diy install an install it myself.

Everything went fine an there was no leaks, few days after i noticed it wasn't cooling as well an the smaller pipe had frozen up.

What can cause this?

Please note that i bought extra pipe as they one that came supplied wasn't long enough was 4 metres an i needed 6 metres.

Any help would be great.

The best help I can give you is to stop messing with thing you don't understand and get a proffesional person to look at it and repair the leak if you want to enjoy cool air. I guess this was the original idea.

what you did was llegal des[ite what you may have been told. I have had dealings with the supplier of these units and the advised me personally "not to vac and just purge". Guess you do have a leak so you need it repaired and recharged.

Cohead,

Not cooling well and the liquid line icing = SOG. You have a leak.
