2005 American Standard R-22 AC system diagnostics. Inspection of indoor systems showed that thermostat and furnace are operational on the cooling aspects. Suction side of refrigeration line is not getting cold like it should. Outdoor inspection and refrigerant measurements show that system is severely low on refrigerant. Running pressures are 30psi/0.5psi. Options for repairs would be performing a leak search. Performing a leak search does not guarantee that the leak can be found, nor that the leak is repairable if found. System would need new refrigerant added to the system if leaks could be found and repaired. Due to costs of potential repairs compared with the age of the unit, replacement of AC system is highly recommended.
