        WHAT IS THE RATIO BETWEEN AIR VERSUS WATER IN TESTING. I HAVE HEARD THAT IT IS 3:1 BUT CAN NOT FIND ANY INFO TO BACK THIS.

        FOR INSTANCE PUTTING 10 lbs. OF AIR ON A SYSTEM IS EQUAL TO PUTTING 30lbs. OF WATER ??

          Puting 30 pound of dynomite is like putting 30 ponds of air on a sytem.

            Nick why did you have to give it away? I was hoping that the Guy from NJ with the 26 minute wonder program would try Air or better yet Pure Oxygen in an oil filled piping system.
