Rothenberger Pipe freezing spray

Followed the instructions to the letter when freezing the cold inlet to a basin (15mm copper pipe). Had to use 2.5 cans and not the recommend 0.5 can to stop the flow. Checked that the ice plug was solid and no water coming out of the tap. Went to cut the pipe (about 30cm away from the plug) and the plug came loose. Huge mistake and caused significant flooding. Not recommended at all.

I purchased this product with the freezing jackets. I followed the instructions to the letter; using half of the 500g can with the jacket to freeze a still room temperature 15 mm radiator pipe. I left the product to work for 13 minutes as directed and when I released the joint water was still flowing. I used the remainder of the can, waited another 13 minutes and the pipe was still not frozen.

Needs to be used with jacket which you get in a Quick Freeze kit. Follow the instructions, one 500 ml can put a freeze seal on two 15 mm copper pipes. Much better than having to drain, refill and treat central heating system. Star off for price.

Great Product did exactly what it was supposed too saved draining the system to change a radiator. Great price as well.

Don't waste your money on this. It didn't freeze a 15mm water pipe. Just drain the system.
