Her are pics, I had to add the liquid coolant to the reservoir. I added pretty much all they sent. Is the level correct? I have no way to add more as I can't squeeze anymore out of the bottle. Let me know what you guys think!

You should be fine, overtime the bubbles will disappear. When I built my own system I’d have to run the pump overnight and by morning the bubbles would be gone.

Looking good white machine! ... no worries on the bubbles if you've just set it up. If you still have bubbles in a week of running you may want to give support a call but my guess is that by now they've already gone.

Thanks everyone, One thing I noticed was that the coolant levels would drop, so i would add more coolant throughout the evening.. this morning its almost 2 inches less than what it was last night. I added the last few drops I had... is it normal for the levels to drop? does it evaporate? how often does it do it?

I had filled it up to very top around 7pm lastnight. This morning it was almost 2 inches below.... So I added the few last bit I had which raised it to an inch below the top...

That is too much IMO.

Call DS to let them know and ask what coolant was used. You can ask that a bottle be sent to refill what is lost. BTW, what have you been using?

You can check for seepage by passing an absorbent tissue softly by the fittings to see if it captures moisture.

Well I pretty much used the entire bottle that was included.... Not noticing leakage or anything.... I raised it about an inch using a plastic dropper to suck out the remaining amounts. its at the level it should be, my concern is that it will keep depleting.. Calling DS is impossible, No one is ever available to talk... I emailed the tech but no response

You can order some for refills. Never mix coolants. In an emergency (and to flush and rinse) use distilled water. You can get it at a grocery store. Used for ironing.

 If there was air in the system it should be purged by now so the level should remain stable. It goes down but not so that you would notice from one day to the next. Mine goes down about an inch every year and I have cpu and gpus lc on an Aventum II and I am constantly looking for leaks. That is the joy of open loop systems.

Hi, feel free to send us a message for more coolant. Overall fluid levels will lower as the system clears out air-bubbles. Just custom liquid cooling things.

I actually called yesterday and spoke with someone who said she would get back to me to let me know how to purchase and I sent 4 emails to different departments, I didn't hear back from anyone, but luckily one of the members here told me it was made by modmymods.com so I just ordered it from them
