HOUSTON — RectorSeal® Corp. acquired the assets of Universal Technologies Inc. and its AC Leak Freeze™ brands of refrigeration and air conditioning system leak repair sealants on Dec. 16.

Universal Technologies manufactures refrigerant leak repair products for most sizes of air conditioning and refrigeration equipment under the AC Leak Freeze and AC Leak Freeze with Magic Frost brands. It also offers AC Leak Freeze R for smaller appliances.

AC Leak Freeze is a non-polymer formula that seals environmentally damaging refrigerant leaks internally and doesn’t react to moisture or oxygen. Once applied with its industry-unique injector system, AC Leak Freeze remains in the system to seal future leaks as they occur while also reducing component friction.

Traditional HVACR wholesalers and contractors can expect a seamless, unnoticeable changeover when RectorSeal transitions to marketing, sales, and customer support of AC Leak Freeze.

The Universal Technologies transaction is RectorSeal’s fifth acquisition since 2011 when it acquired Airtec. Other recent acquisitions include Resource Conservation Technologies, Glue-On-Nozzle, SureSeal®, and the Evo-Crete™ and PolySlab™ brands from Australian-based Evolve Group.
