water loss?

kanuuker · Jun 11, 2004

What's a normal rate of water loss in a closed system? I'm having to fill mine once a week or so. I don't remember it being this bad before, but since the summer it's really dropping fast.

I'm using mostly distilled water with a little window washer fluid with an electrical junction box for a reservoir. I don't seem to be leaking anywhere.

Thanks

also, if the loop isn't air tight it could just be evaporating. especially if wherever it's being kept is not air conditioned.

its leaking somewhere

I'm not leaking, I just double checked but it seems to be too much for evaporation.

I'm using just the plain clear tubing (1/2") from Lowes. I also live in Alabama where it's damn hot and humid however I keep my place a/c'd below 70. My cpu temps are between 25 and 30 C (oc'd Athlon 2500).
