While mounting and seting up my window framing around
the air conditioning unit (window mount type unit) I slipped
with the elec. drill and put 1/16" hole in the copper tubing.
Of course, the refrigerant leaked all out. Is my air conditioner
ruined? Since this portion of the copper tube where I accidently
put the hole into is easily accesable, can I solder it? Can the
unit be refilled with refrigerant? This unit is a FEEDERS model
A2Q10F2BG, type Q, SKU#401-183

Thanks

Toss it.

By the time you have the hole silver filled, the units coil flushed out to
remove any copper shavings that will clog the metering device, a service
port added, a vac placed on teh unit, and a recharge, you can go buy a new
one...easy.
