Freon leak in package unit ac repair Boise Idaho

Another ac repair Boise Idaho tip.  How do I know if I have a Freon leak, and what to do about it?  Freon is the gas that your air conditioner uses to cool your house down.  When some of it leaks out it greatly limits the amount of cooling the unit can do.  Freon does not get used up or wear out, if you are missing some it leaked out somewhere.  To find this leak can be everywhere from 5 min. to hours of searching.  The easy/large ones can be heard hissing like an air hose.  Where the small ones have to be really looked for with special equipment.  The main ingredient is Freon is  chlorine gas .

 

AC Repair Boise Idaho

On a recent ac repair Boise Idaho we were asked if it was important to repair the leak.  Could we just fill it up and be done with it.  The fast answer is yes. However the problem with not finding the leak is that Freon is expensive and getting more so by the day.    If not repaired you will soon be out of Freon again and possibly do severe damage to your system in the process.  It is always better to find and repair the leak.  Many leaks can be repaired by welding the leaking copper fitting.  This is done be removing the rest of the Freon in the system and then welding the leak.  Testing the weld to see if it holds, then charging the system back with the proper amount of Freon.  This will return your system to proper working order.
