Title: Cooling on ideal model 55b Post by: on December 26, 2005, 08:47:13 pm I have a old Dr Pepper Ideal model 55b. The compressor has the flared screw on fittings. Is the valve on this the low side that you add the freon. And what should the low side reading be. This unit has the cooling in the walls. The compressor runs and the condenser fans runs, but it will not cool. This machine had been sitting for serveral years before I got it. Is this a job I should turn over to Eric?

That is true here also, the freon leaked out.
Have a local refrigeration company put your system under a pressure test, find and repair the leak and then recharge with R-12. |
