π¨π§ The Hidden Danger of Low Refrigerant Levels π§π¨
Many homeowners think refrigerant is something you βtop offβ occasionally β but itβs much more important than that.
Your HVAC system relies on the right amount of refrigerant to move heat efficiently. When the level is too low, it forces your compressor to work harder and longer, shortening its lifespan and raising your energy bills.
Hereβs what happens when refrigerant levels drop:
β Warm air from vents even when the thermostat is set low
β Frozen coils that block airflow and damage components
β Compressor strain, often leading to costly breakdowns
β Higher energy use, which means higher bills
Now, hereβs what proper refrigerant charge ensures:
β
Consistent, strong cooling
β
Lower energy bills and less stress on your system
β
Longer compressor life
β
Steady comfort all season long
