How did you get on with loosing the aircon refridgerant? Did you just vent it to atmosphere or did you have an aircon guy specialist vent it?

You\'d need to relocate the condensor, and make/find some fittings for it. Other than that, it\'s possible!

The bloke that di-gassed mine said he could do it for £300. I would take him up on the offer, but i aint got £300 handy. Not looking forward to summer! :Hammer

I am getting the dragon kit but I also want to keep the aircon, so i\'ll have to look into it with a bit more detail.  Cheers Nik! :Thumbsup!
