Re: Found my leak U320 Aqua hot Reply #34 – October 28, 2020, 10:24:07 pm The coolant leak I was also having at the aqua hot was at one of the solder joints. Who ever messed with this only had a 1/8 inch of insertion into the 90 deg elbow and poorly soldered. Short and cold. Glad it didn't pop apart on the last trip when it started leakin. Very preventable.Scott Quote Selected 1 Likes

Re: Found my leak U320 Aqua hot Reply #41 – October 30, 2020, 12:45:36 pm Is that 1/2 inch tubing as to me it looks like 3/8 tubing. It just may be the picture. Quote Selected
Re: Found my leak U320 Aqua hot Reply #42 – October 30, 2020, 12:56:30 pm So it's 1/2 OD tubing. Used in the HVAC field. I had never seen before but it exists. Water plumbing that I'm used to is 1/2 ID. I sourced thru a HVAC Friend of mine Dean Richner and he purchased thru one of his suppliers that sends out the exact length to there service people. They cut to length off a (guessing) 1000 foot roll. He was able to get in 24 hours to me. It was rolled about four feet across. I haven't measured thickness but this was my only choice Dean said it was thicker than my .030 I removed. I'm sure you have a similar source near you that can also cut to length. Scott Quote Selected
Re: Found my leak U320 Aqua hot Reply #43 – October 30, 2020, 01:02:39 pm I've used lots of half inch tubing before, looking at a picture is hard to get dimensions. Keep your comments and pictures comingand good luck with the job. Quote Selected 1 Likes
