Coolant Recovery System

A coolant recovery system is just a clear plastic container with two little hoses coming out of the cap. One hose leads to the radiator, and the other serves as an overflow pipe for the container. The container holds an extra supply of water and coolant, in case the system lose any.

When your cooling system heats up and starts to overflow, the liquid pours back into the recovery container instead of pouring out of the radiator overflow pipe and onto the ground. When the system cools off,  the pressure drops and the liquid is drawn out of the container and back into the radiator. This process is not only saves you coolant, but it also protects animals and children from sampling puddles of the toxic stuff.

Some of today’s have pressurized reservoirs. In these cases, you find the radiator pressure cap on the reservoir and not on the radiator.

Most recovery systems are considered “sealed” because you can check whether your coolant needs changing- and add water and coolant- by opening the cap on the container. You can also check the level of liquid in the system by seeing whether it reaches the fill level shown on the side of  the container.
