Today, I repaired a leaking refrigerant line on a customer’s air conditioning system. The leak was causing reduced cooling capacity and increased energy use. After locating and sealing the leak, I recharged the refrigerant to optimal levels and tested the system to ensure efficient operation. Addressing refrigerant leaks promptly prevents further damage to the compressor and extends the life of the HVAC system, saving homeowners from costly repairs and discomfort during the hottest months.
