❄️ Refrigerant Recharge — Georgetown TX

Refrigerant doesn't get used up — it circulates in a closed loop. If your system is low on refrigerant, there's a leak. ProAir Georgetown's EPA-certified technicians find and fix refrigerant leaks before recharging. Just adding refrigerant without finding the leak is expensive short-term thinking.

How We Handle Refrigerant Recharge in Georgetown TX

Our refrigerant service process is designed to fix problems permanently, not temporarily:

🔍

Leak detection first

Before adding any refrigerant, we use electronic leak detection and UV dye to find where the system is losing refrigerant. If we can't find a leak and the system is low, we do nitrogen pressure testing.

🔧

Fix the leak

Small leaks — Schrader valve cores, service valve packing, accessible joint brazes — are repaired on the same visit. Large leaks (evaporator coil, line set) are quoted separately.

💨

Evacuate if system was opened

If any refrigerant circuit work was done, we pull a deep vacuum to remove moisture and air before recharging.

📊

Charge to spec — not by pressure

We charge refrigerant by measuring subcooling (liquid line) and superheat (suction line) against manufacturer specifications. Pressure-only charging is imprecise and leads to overcharge or undercharge.

✅

Verify performance

After recharge, we verify the system is producing correct temperature differential and operating within normal parameters before leaving.

Frequently Asked Questions — Refrigerant Recharge Georgetown

How do I know if my AC needs refrigerant in Georgetown? +

Signs of low refrigerant: AC runs constantly but can't cool the house on a hot day, ice forming on the copper suction line, warm air from vents despite the system running, and higher electricity bills. A technician can confirm by measuring pressures and calculating subcooling/superheat.

Can't you just add refrigerant and be done? +

We can — but we won't without explaining the consequences. If there's a leak, the new refrigerant will slowly escape too. You'll be calling again in 6–18 months for another recharge. Finding and fixing the leak now is more expensive upfront but far cheaper long-term.

How much refrigerant does my Georgetown AC system need? +

A typical 3-ton system holds 6–12 lbs of refrigerant. If it's significantly undercharged, we need to find out why — gradual loss over 10 years is normal as fittings slowly weep. Sudden loss indicates a specific leak that needs repair.
