We warn against miraculous products that can damage our air conditioning system.

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Air conditioner

Video tutorial

The procedure described in the video is extremely dangerous and highly discouraged: the product Cool-shot ultra is marketed as a miraculous fix for car air conditioning, but in reality it is a high viscosity sealing liquid. In theory, it should circulate and deposit in the micro leaks of the pipes and gaskets, sealing them and preventing the system from losing gas. In reality, this thick and sticky liquid clogs everything: it does not distinguish between a micro leak and the vital components of the system.

It is known by workshops as a plague because it destroys and contaminates the equipment. In the best case scenario, it temporarily solves the leak, creating the conditions for a much more expensive damage in the future, where the only solution becomes the complete replacement of the air conditioning system, with costs exceeding 1,000 euros.

The demonstration in the video is misleading; if the system was just empty, any added liquid that takes up space will increase the pressure and cool more. This does not prove that the product is used to restore anything, but only that the system was low on pressure.
