Explanation for cessation of repairs to Aqua Breeze EVAP4 PCBs:
While we understand that many people will find this disappointing, we have decided to no longer offer repair/reconditioning services for Aqua Breeze EVAP4 PCBs.
It is not economically viable to recondition these boards and continue to do it to our high standards.
Most boards that come in for repair are not actually repaired, but are reconditioned. Repairing the original fault is part of the overall reconditioning process, and the boards then go through a standard reconditioning procedure. This creates a uniform, clean, like-new product that can be sold to customers in good faith and that should serve them well.
The standard reconditioning procedure we develop for each product we repair/recondition is designed to target the areas/components of the PCBs that commonly fail, in order to prevent future failures and to prolong the life of the reconditioned product. This procedure is also updated over time, whenever the cause of a trend of failures is identified.
You can download a copy of our most recent repair procedure. This document describes the standard repair procedure that these boards were put through, and also lists various component values. The repair procedure isn’t intended to explain how to repair all faults, rather what is typically required to recondition the boards to what we consider an acceptable standard.
