OT: Need cooling unit help

[cody6766]

I have a large wine cooler with a nonfunctional cooling unit. It runs, moves air and sounds normal, but the refrigerant has leaked out. It's basically a small window ac unit in a large chest. Is a recharge as easy as it is on a truck? I'm handy, but have never done any ac work before.

PMs are fine so we don't clutter RC with OT stuff.

Gracias!

Preasures run a little different but pretty close. You would need to know what type of refridgerant it uses. I have a wine cooler with a bad compressor I need to get rid of! lol

Throw that bad boy on Craig's list. That's where I got this one. Its a 364 bottle cooler and was very cheap considering the size...cheap enough that I don't mind servicing it. Filling it on the other hand, that will be an endeavor.

The cooling unit is made by Nordicorp. It is a cooler/dehumidifier with a serial number of K178501 SPV

I can't find much on Google, must maybe you guys in the know can find more.

To ur reply on the is it easy to fill back up? Well it really depends. I'm a AC.service tech. I have came upon units that have no service port. Which makes it hard lol. Well not hard but also the refrigerant is key in this situation! It could almost cost u the same amount of money to put the refrigerant back into the system. But talk to me about it tomorrow if u'd like to know more info
