Hello guys, I apologise if this is not the correct category.
My issue is that a couple months ago my h100 broke. What I mean by broke is that one of the tubes broke and the liquid spilled. I didnt have time to play with it so i left it in my storage and now i have some spare time so I thought that it would be nice to refill it, so that my money wouldnt go to waste. I found new tubes as a substitution, but since there is no valve to refill the liquid and to vent the instalation. I dont really like the idea of manually making the difference in pressure to push the air out.
My question is, how do you guys recommend to do this? Should I use the pump?
Thanks.

As far as I am concerned, they are filled with a mix of distilled water and glycol propylene. I have refilled it before with glycol only and it worked fine, but It was very late in the night and I didnt notice that the substance i filled it with was just a concentrate. Because the liquid was so dense the temperatures weren't so good. Now I have distilled water and glycol, so I thought of refilling it but I dont really like the idea of manually refilling it. All I wanted to know is whether anyone has tried to refill it using the pump to push the air out. :)
