What Users Say About Spectroline Leak Detection

"If there’s a service tech out there not using the Spectroline system as a better way of finding leaks, then that’s not a tech I want on my team."

Robert Freeman, Owner
Freeman’s Heating & Air, Moore, OK

"This unit will find leaks that would be difficult or impossible with other methods. It should be in every professional HVAC/R tech's tool supply."

Robert Zerr, Owner
Comfort-Able/Even Temp
Ft. Worth, TX


"We use the Spectroline leak detection method to detect leaks in our comfort air for offices, as well as for temperature controlled laboratories where we test electronics on chilled tables. We make equipment for the Space Station and motors for the Delta rockets and Space Shuttle. No matter where we check for leaks, the Spectroline method cuts refrigerant expenses, because we can spot leaks while they are still small. And since we can find the leaks so quickly, our labor costs have been reduced considerably."

Ron Baldridge, AC&R Technician
Boeing, Palmdale, CA


"I am the only A/C Refrigeration Mechanic at the institution where I am employed. The Spectroline leak detection system has found 2 leaks that have been haunting me for over 5 years. It's great! I am putting it in everything — even if it's not leaking now, it will be — then I will find the leaks faster."

Rich Taylor, A/C Mechanic
Iowa State Penitentiary, Ft. Madison, IA

 

"I have spent several months trying to detect a leak in my company's system. After all my effort and many pounds of lost refrigerant, I was able to locate and stop my leak with the Spectroline Leak Detection System. Thanks!"

Edward Eastes, Refrigeration / Mechanic
Pacific Cheese Co., Hayward, CA

 

"I was very pleased with the overall performance of your product. As a technician in a school district maintenance department, I need to get things done quickly. This product sure helped me."

Lin Hansen, HVAC Technician
Mead School District 354, Mead, WA

 

"I use the AR-GLO dye in all large gas, air and water chillers — so during my regular monthly checks I can sweep the equipment quickly and find the smallest of leaks in minutes, as well as checking pressure relief valves. I also use AR-GLO in any system with hard to find leaks."

Jason W. Survilas, Owner/Operator
J.W. Survilas HVAC/R, Winthrop, MA

 

"I just wanted to drop you a short note to tell you how impressed my staff and I are with your product AR-GLO dye. It would be safe to say this product paid for itself the first month of use in savings on refrigerant and labor. We had an ounce-per-year refrigerant leak that would have been impossible to find with any conventional means. AR-GLO was added to the system and within five minutes a pinhole leak was found in a solder joint."

Roger Schiller, Assistant Director of Engineering
Winthrop University Hospital, Mineola, NY

 

"I work in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska for British Petroleum (BP) in the oil fields. Spectroline is wonderful up here in all types of equipment."

Robert Trublove, HVAC Technician
Nana, Anchorage, AK

 

"When the contractor insisted we change the evaporator coil on a 10-ton unit in a Madison Avenue high-rise drop ceiling, I can't begin to describe the time, aggravation and money that could have been involved. Instead, we recommended the Spectroline Leak Detection System to the contractor. Within an hour, the leak was found on the condenser header end cap, which was quickly re-soldered at minimal expense. We have nothing but praise for the Spectroline System and can honestly say we will be using it often."

George Davie, Vice President of Operations
Skymark Metal Manufacturers Inc.,
Scarborough, Ontario

 

"Your system has done everything you claim and more... not only has it located all the major leaks, but we have also found minute leaks that weren't even affecting the operation of the air conditioners."

W.J. Tokash, Manufacturing Engineer
Saginaw Division General Motors Corporation,
Buffalo, NY

 

"I bought this system because of the limited time I have to work on equipment. I have over 120 units with a combined tonnage of over 1200. I have a small staff of 4 men that run a medical implant manufacturing maintenance department. We service over 800 pieces of equipment, plus the building facilities. Time saving was very important to me."

Bill Moore, Maintenance Supervisor
Wright Medical Inc., Arlington, TN

 

"Since converting to R-134a in our reefer system 1 year ago, we have lost a considerable amount of refrigerant. Our installed leak detectors have not been updated to detect R-134a. Your product has enabled us to find and eliminate leaks previously undetectable. Not only helping the environment but saving taxpayer dollars."

David H. Emerson, MM1 (SW)
US Navy, FPO AA

 

"This system will pay for itself for any professional contractor who installs A/C or refrigeration systems. The larger the company – the larger the savings. This system is amazing!"

Allen Klein, Owner/President
Allen & Son's Mechanical, Interlochen, MI

 

"I have worked in service 13 years and then taught 15 years at a community college. Now I have opened my own business and I have tried 'all' other equipments and found them to be inferior in results. The only thing I use besides this is soap bubbles for a defined pin hole. Excellent equipment — after all I have spent on other styles/types."

J. Duane McBeth, Owner
Universal Service & Appliance, Martinsburg, IA

 

"Until now, leak detection on a rooftop system was next to impossible with the wind. Unless, of course, it was a very obvious leak and saturated with oil. Also, the "hi pressure" leaks are no longer a problem. The Spectroline Leak Detection System does it all."

Dave Fellner, Maintenance Technician - HVAC
Laird Technologies, Delaware Water Gap, PA

 

"We constantly service 207 rooms for possible leaks in the air conditioning systems. The job has become a lot easier since we started to use the Spectroline Leak Detection System more than three years ago. It has given us great peace of mind! We just put the dye into a system and go back routinely and check it for leaks. It saves us more than an hour per repair."

Tom O'Neil, Maintenance Supervisor
Holiday Inn, Buffalo Airport, NY

 

"I am amazed! With the Spectroline Leak Detection System we have been able to locate leaking head gaskets, pipe joints and shaft seals that have not been identified with our other leak detection methods. The ease with which leaks are found is unbelievable."

Joe A. Shearer, Department Head
McKinley Climatic Laboratory,
Eglin Air Force Base, FL

 

"Normally it would take about two hours to completely leak-check this 40-ton A/C system that had the evaporator coil five stories up... with the Spectroline System it look only about half an hour! Now I have no doubts at all as to its accuracy and its ability to save time. I am very pleased!"

Rick A. Christian, Vice President
Capital Environmental, Inc., Cleveland, OH

 

"We save about 3 hours per system check. Plus with the electronic type of detection, you were never sure if you found all the leaks. With this, you are sure. With the UV light you can spot leaks from 20 feet away... a great deal, especially in parallel rack systems where conditions defeat electronic detectors."

Danny Kaufman, HVAC/R
Department Service Manager
H-E-B Grocery Co., San Antonio, TX
