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?


He did but he declined to refill the system while he was waiting to see
what the
landlord would do. I think he thought the landlord would balk at paying
the
exhorbitant price he said he thought it would cost. As it turned out, it
was a
warranty item. But in the meanwhile, I sit and sweat. With any luck the
parts
will be here tomorrow.


Yeah, it's to bad he doesn't stock the shrader valves on his service truck.

I guess he doesn't own the tools to change them without loosing the charge
either.
