Reasons your air conditioner needs to be regassed
Regassing your AC unit is only required if there's a refrigerant leak, which can occur due to general wear and tear, pipe damage, or occasionally incorrect installation. It's important to note that merely adding refrigerant to the current system is not advisable. Instead, a full replacement of the refrigerant should be undertaken. Our refrigeration mechanic will thoroughly assess your system, determine the appropriate refrigerant, and replace it safely. Afterwards, your system will be set to the recommended temperature and pressure settings.
Whether your air conditioning system is a split system, ducted or cassette air conditioner the signs and symptoms that your unit needs to be regassed or refrigerant recharged include:
Visible Refrigerant Leaks: Look for any visible signs of refrigerant leaks around the indoor or outdoor units. Refrigerant is usually a colourless gas, but it may cause oil stains if it leaks. If you notice any oil spots, it could be an indication of a refrigerant leak.
Inadequate Cooling: If your air conditioner is not cooling the space as effectively as it used to, it could be a sign of low refrigerant levels. In such cases, regassing may be necessary to restore the unit's cooling efficiency.
Ice Formation: If you notice ice forming on the evaporator coil or any other part of the air conditioning unit, it could be an indication of low refrigerant. Adding refrigerant may be required to address this issue.
Routine Maintenance: In some cases, air conditioners may require periodic regassing as part of routine maintenance. This is more common in older systems or those that have been in use for an extended period.
Incorrect Installation: If the air conditioner was not installed properly, or if the refrigerant charge was not accurate during installation, it may lead to the need for regassing
Warm Air Blowing: If the air coming out of the vents is warmer than usual, it may indicate a lack of refrigerant. Refrigerant is crucial for the cooling process, and a low level can result in the system blowing warm air.
Hissing or Bubbling Sounds: Unusual sounds, such as hissing or bubbling, may indicate a refrigerant leak. If you hear these sounds coming from the indoor or outdoor unit, it's essential to have a professional inspect the system.
High Energy Bills: A sudden increase in your energy bills without a corresponding increase in usage may be a sign that your air conditioner is working harder than usual. This increased workload could be due to low refrigerant levels.
