Sometimes those leak.



Funny you should mention that. My 1.5 year old Lennox is leaking there
as

we
speak. The parts were ordered from Texas last week (still under
warranty)

but
in the meanwhile I'm sweating.

It was leaking from around the schrader valves where they hook up the

gauges.
You'd think they could just swap out valves but apparently they intend to

swap
out the entire valve block.



Sounds as if they're as competent at Chris.

While the parts are on order, why didn't they screw the caps on tight?


just replace the schraders...nahhhh....makes too much sense and its too
easy.
