Is the water cooling system losing its effectiveness?
the setup seems possible for disassembly, cleaning, reassembly, refilling, and reinstallation. I located a maintenance guide on their channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x76JbLfCSfQ. Regarding coolant, would you like suggestions for a specific type, preferably with red dye?
I use antifreeze in every system, which is a blend of 60% distilled water, 20% wetter water, and 20% antifreeze.
Antifreeze is available in various colors such as green, blue, orange, pink, and red.

It seems like draining my loop, flushing with distilled water, and then adding coolant would work. From the video, I need an external PSU as a pump for refilling. The CPU loop costs around £70. It might be simpler to purchase a new loop instead, but I’d miss the satisfaction of reassembling a fixed one.
I bought 1 Litre of Mayhems Coolant and 500ml of Distilled water. At first, the distilled water was intended for cleaning the old coolant, but I might be running short on coolant.
The original spec mentioned a 350ml volume in the loop, but I’m unsure if 1 litre will suffice. Since I can’t see inside the radiator or pour it out first, I’d rather avoid the risk of running out.
Can I combine my red coolant with distilled water?
yes, you can combine them, but i don't recommend using coolants like mayhems, as they will block the system just like the previous coolant did.
if you have to use a coolant solution, swiftech makes one I would trust won't cause clogs.
otherwise, i suggest opting for antifreeze from autozone or similar places.
