Signs You Need an AC Recharge

More accurately described, recharging could be referred to as refilling. Essentially, a recharge consists of refilling the refrigerant into the AC system. Although this seems simple, it can be dangerous both to you and to your system if this process is done improperly.

Signs that you may need a system recharge include the following:

• Vents blowing room temperature air
• Frozen pipes, coils, and / or overall unit

Refrigerant is designed to last longer than your system. If you are experiencing the need for a recharge, you most likely have a leak. If you have a newer system, you may be eligible for a replacement due to a manufacturing error. However, if your system is older, you may need to consider a new system. Our certified technicians can help you determine what is the most cost efficient option and provide complete ac repair.

How Do I Recharge My Home AC Unit?

It's incredibly important that you wear protective gear including a mask, goggles, and gloves. Make sure you check your local laws to see if you are required to hire a licensed professional to handle the job. Refrigerant is a dangerous chemical, and requires the utmost care when handling.

• Use your AC's manual to locate the compressor. Inspect your unit to ensure that it's working properly. There's a chance that the refrigerant may not be the only issue, and it may need to be addressed before recharging.
• Plug the Freon service valve into the compressor line and follow the directions on your Freon kit.
• Plug the tap valve into the remaining AC compressor line.
• Attach the Freon container and follow the instructions on the kit to start the recharge.
