A/C REFRIGERANT NEVER “WEARS OUT”
LEAKY A/C MAY HARM ENVIRONMENT
There’s a popular belief that over time, the refrigerant in your air conditioning system will wear out and disappear. But that’s simply not true. According to the US Department of Energy, a system that’s low on refrigerant not only wastes electricity, it might also be a danger to the environment.
According to www.energy.gov, “If your air conditioner is low on refrigerant, either it was undercharged at installation or it leaks. If it leaks, simply adding refrigerant is not a solution. A trained technician should fix any leak, test the repair, and then charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant. Remember that the performance and efficiency of your air conditioner is greatest when the refrigerant charge exactly matches the manufacturer’s specification, and is neither undercharged nor overcharged. Refrigerant leaks can also be harmful to the environment.”
