Thank you for this video Tad! I'm new to HVAC, I follow all your videos because they help me tremendously! This product I had to load on to the work truck the other day but we never ended up using it! So cool to see what it did visually! Keep up the awesome video content 👏 👌 It is appreciated!!

You're welcome thank you so much for watching the video. I really appreciate you watching all my videos. It means a lot to me. Wishing you great success in this industry my friend

This is one of the best videos of NuCalGon product. Very detail and organized video. Thank you.

[@TaddyDigest]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jerryChambers-eh3xb]

Another great video Tad! I have used a similar product with success and it's great to have this option!

[@TaddyDigest]

You're right my friend. It's great to have this option and I'm glad to hear that you had success. I will be curious to know the progress with this one

[@soundgineering4771]

First off, I don't think it takes care of sealing major (bigger) leaks (the website says that too). Then, I THINK, it restricts the Filter Drier. I have used it twice (per year gaps). In my case, the leaks were minor but the liquid in the tube get accumulated in the filter drier (again, I THINK). Why I kind of getting sure about it is that this year, I see about 10 degree temperature difference in the inlet and outlet of the filter drier. Great video!!

[@Gus11445]

3 degrees difference is a restriction so yes you are probably right. This junk also ruins txv metering devices. Our company has stopped using it, it's not a fix or in the customers best interest. Fix the leak correctly or replace the system. Customers always want "another year or two" to save for a new system, yet systems go up in price each year so they end up losing money in the long run.

[@Bona39]

Thank you stomach I learned you KZbin channel I am so happy i work with you?

[@TaddyDigest]

Great to hear!

[@actionhost1976]

What kind of vacuum did you pull with a leak present? Wouldn't you have been better off not recovering and just charge system then add the product?

[@dennylang4165]

I used a leak sealant product on a slow leak that required refrigerant every year., It's been 3 years now without the need to add.

[@jamestoy426]

I have used the sealant but not the dye I’m not a fan of the sealant but I understand see the advantages of of the dye . At the same time my leak decor would have found those leaks nice video that’s my opinion on leak seal

[@TaddyDigest]

Thank you for your knowledge my friend I appreciate it

[@jayjudd6518]

❤😊😮 Ok I would definitely use this product after going over everything with a leak gun. I’d use soap bubbles on braising joints. If then No positive reactions I’d install the leak repair kit. As you said small leaks! 😊😊. I alway use double flair single have tendency to split or just leak.

[@manuelherreros4609]

If this product does seal the leak ,could the seal lose affect over time or seal it permanently?

Hi Taddy, I'm new to the geothermal world. I bought a house with one in it and wasn't told anything about it - how to upkeep it or if I could get parts. Well, about a month ago it stopped blowing cold air, and I am quickly learning about them. I love your videos and have learned a lot about my unit be watching you. The problem is, I think the issues is more that I can do. Do you ever go to Kentucky? I am in the Paducah, KY area and need help. The people here that I have talked to just want to replace it, I'm thinking they may not know how to actually work on it and fix the one I have. Thanks, Kim

[@yurizhivago4848]

Looks like a good product but where I am in Canada we must fix the leak and document that. Government run Ozone depleting police agency/ozone protection people will fine you. Just adding sealant to buy time is illegal. Seems like some US States allow you to top up systems and do others insist on the leak being fixed and not allow topping up? Which ones do and don't?

[@ismaelmorales3841]

How do you find out where the leak is

[@jamesanderson6149]

What's the longevity of the refrigerant woth the uv dye and leak sealant installed in the system? Do you need to replace the refrigerant with virgin refrigerant during the repair? How long can the dye stay in the system

[@TaddyDigest]

It last as long as the refrigerant is in the system. It travels with the refrigerant in the system.

[@DaveAhlgren1]

Did the leakseal fix the leak?

[@TaddyDigest]

yes

[@tedstriker754]

Don't they have a kit with the CO2 injector like Pro Seal has? And what size for automobile systems?

[@andrewgilbreath1331]

Food for thought, in my opinion that is a last resort repair for a older R22 system, I will not put it in anything that is repairable or newer R410 systems, the reason being is that sealant is designed to react with open air and if you ever crack open a system to make a repair it will start hardening in the lines you have flush it immediately upon opening the system, and then you still risk it making sludge in the system and stopping things up, will it stop up the txv as long as it has refrigerant in it properly not, but you change the game when you open the system after and the effects can be devastating to the filter drier and txv after that.

[@TaddyDigest]

I did not think about that thank you so much for your knowledge. I really appreciate you.

This should work for a mini split also shouldn’t it?

[@TaddyDigest]

yes

[@craigmarshall40]

Have you tried leak armor ? This is the only one I have found that works . For any of this stuff I think that the leaks has to take 2 to 3 months for it to be low on charge and then you might get lucky with this stuff

[@IDrag]

ive only been in the trade for 2.5 years, 4 months with my journeymans license. i try to stay away from this stuff unless i absolutely cannot find the leak. multiple techs within my company have ran into systems in which we introduced this sealant to, and it ended up clogging the filter drier and/or txv.... i guess its sealing though!?

[@DonziGT230]

Since you were recharging it; why didn't you put the sealant in while charging it?

I just did that exact thing! The sealant and dye was from another company, but it has slowed (hopefully stopped) a small leak. As of now, I have not seen any evidence of the dye showing, but will check again in a couple of months.

Wait till that sealant gets into your recover equipment and gauges. We condone it in the automotive ac repair world because it wrecks our equipment. If sealant is detected in a system, everything has to be replaced. Bandaid fix that causes more issues for others.

[@Gus11445]

Word of advice. Reputable companies will not allow their techs to use this product anymore. High risk of metering device issues with leak seal products. If it does work, likely for a year or two. All you are doing is kicking the bucket down the road to a more expensive ac system replacement in the years coming than just replacing or fixing at current market prices. Good for the hvac companies, expensive and bad for customers. Not to mention setting yourself up for another round of headaches and money spent on having an hvac company come out again when things go south shortly after. Uv dye has only ever helped me once in a diagnostic, and that was on a leak in a finished ceiling. Much easier to use an electronic sniffer.
