Freon Recharges & More
A common misconception about refrigerant, also known as Freon, is that it evaporates inside your AC system. This is not true. If you are low on refrigerant, it’s likely due to a leak in your evaporator coil. If the leak cannot be repaired, the leaking coil must be replaced, and then refrigerant can be added to the system.

Freon Leak Repair Specialists
If your AC unit requires a Freon recharge, it indicates a leak. When there are multiple leaks, repairing them is crucial. Freon leaks are often found in evaporator coils, condenser coils, and line sets. Detecting the Freon leak can be challenging, so it’s essential to hire a Freon leak repair expert to handle the job. Contact JCAC for code-compliant solutions to your AC refrigerant leaks.
Need to Recharge a Freon Leak? Think Again!
Recharging your AC system with more Freon will not fix a Freon leak. The leak will continue until the hole in the coil is repaired. This requires either finding and repairing the opening or replacing the damaged coil. At JCAC, we have been repairing refrigerant leaks for over 30 years. We will inform you if the leaking evaporator coil can be repaired or needs replacement. We will review all your options so you can make the best decision. Our team has the experience and knowledge to detect and repair refrigerant leaks, ensuring you won’t have to deal with them again.
