I have a dead dehumidifier...

I get maybe 3 inches of water after 2-21/2 hours, but my res is huge (8 gallons). So, is the evap. It's like 13x13"

My res is about 11x10x12 and the evap is 11x12. I also wanna get it recharged with 134a or 404a/507a if I can but I don't know where I can get it done... perhaps an autodealership because they deal with airconditioning?

 

[sandman001]

What's yours now? R22?

If so, it won't be easy because they use different oil.

 

[pwnt by pat]

Yeah, R22. From what I can tell they are mostly compatable and oil changes aren't that hard - at least for a qualified refridgeration guy (not me).

 

[sneakyfart]

whats wrong with r22? its colder than 134a, a lot cheaper then 404 or 507 and you wont need to change the oil.

 

[pwnt by pat]

I thought 134a get's slightly colder than 22... anyway price is nothing because I'm doing the conversion for a yuppie kid who is getting a prescott and needs wants it as cold as possible.

 

[sneakyfart]

if price isnt a problem then use r502, its expensive though. again, no oil change...

 

[sandman001]

I would just stick with R22 in all honesty. If price isn't a concern, then why doesn't he just get a Vapo LS?

now why didnt i think of that?

The kid wants to cool his cpu, gpu andnorthbriddge. With a vapochill/promethia he can't and I don't feel like modifying it for dual evap. Plus the chiller is "Cooler" than phase change.

The chiller is phase change...

 

[pwnt by pat]

Well, the general idea of phase change is direct die... That's what I was referring to.

sounds like you need to increase the evap warming with more water flow that should have the gas back to a vaper the hissing sound sounds like also you need to increase the fan flow to cool it off faster but you could of cooked the pump who knows unless someone is there can listen to it
