Fairhope AC Refrigerant Refill
You may not know it, but your AC’s refrigerant runs through a closed system. That means you should never run low on refrigerant for as long as you own your AC, but small leaks in AC refrigerant systems are common. They may result from imperfections in refrigerant lines or from deteriorating line materials.
When your AC runs low on refrigerant, you’ll first notice that the air output temperature of your AC is rising. That happens because your AC is losing the ability to extract heat from the air. As the loss becomes more severe, you may notice a decrease in airflow from your vents. That’s a sign that your evaporator coil has frozen, obstructing the air’s passage through the AC.
Look for the following signs that you need a Freon recharge in Fairhope, AL:
- Unusually high indoor humidity
- Unusual smells from AC
- Gurgling or hissing sounds
- AC taking longer to cool
- Energy bill spikes
Many refrigerant leaks are small, so they can go unnoticed until the system stops cooling your home. HVAC technicians can use a fluorescent dye to find refrigerant leaks. Our low Freon AC service will help find your leak, diagnose the cause and recharge the levels. If you need more repairs done to fix a larger leak, we’ll let you know what we find. In the meantime, in many cases, the Freon recharge can help you delay a replacement or full repair so you don’t get stuck in the heat while the issue is solved.
