Consumer Question: Central Air Refrigerant


Hi, Joe,


Can a central air conditioner need refrigerant for many reasons or does it have to have a leak in the system?

Thank you,
Dave

A: Hi, Dave,


Thanks for your note. 


A central system that has been running ok for a time may develop a leak at some point along the way. The loss of refrigerant needs to be corrected at the trouble spot with a possible vacuum pulled on the system and recharged.

Regards,
Joe Gagnon
