  • Don’t always use your air conditioner. Using your A/C consistently will cause it to shorten its lifespan. Other ways to preserve the lifespan is to keep all windows, blinds and curtains closed so that the cool air can stay in longer or you can turn on a ceiling fan so that the cool air can circulate in your home or office.
  • Maintain air leaks if you’ve had them before. If you’ve had leaks before, it is always best to keep in contact with any professional who is willing to help you maintain the leaks in your air conditioner. Maintaining it can help prolong your A/C lifespan.

Some things you can do to prevent an air condition leak is to:

  • Make sure the installation of the air conditioning unit is correct

  • Have a professional check your HVAC yearly

FAQ

What is Freon and why is there a Freon leak in my air conditioner?

Freon leaks or refrigerant leaks are dangerous to your health. Freon basically put holes in the atmosphere and drains the ozone layer which means we have less oxygen. So, if you inhale a huge chunk of Freon you can have water buildup in your lungs, organ failure or damage and if you’re sensitive especially for younger children, it can even cause death. Freon or refrigerant leaks simply happen due to old age deterioration. Fixing Freon leaks should not be done by yourself, letting a professional handle it is safer and cost effective. The price for hiring a professional no more than $3,500 or less.

I want to fix the A/C leak by myself, what kind of tools do I need?

For a do-it-yourself, you will need the following tools to fix a leak: cordless drills, 2 screwdrivers that are insulated, pliers, adjustable wrench, voltage tester, nut driver and a ratchet and/or socket set. For materials, you will need an air compressor, contactor, capacitor, fuses and condenser fan motor.

How often should I change the air filters on my air conditioner?

It is advisable to change air filters once every month or every other month, but it can depend on how often you’re using your air conditioner. It should often be changed because you don’t want there to be a buildup in your air conditioning unit which would cause more damage in the future.

How often should I do regular checkups on my a/c in order to prevent leaks?

Air conditioners should be checked twice a year, once before the summer and once before the winter months. It is important to check during these times because this is when we get extreme temperatures, especially during the scorching summer months.

Is hiring a professional worth it?

Even though hiring a professional is expensive it is worth it. It is advisable to hire a professional due to the long-term benefits of their services. Your A/C units’ lifespan will expand if taken care of properly and having it checked out by a technician so that they can help show you how to maintain it.
