When your air conditioning stops blowing cold, it's tempting to assume it just needs more gas. But there are several possible causes, and identifying the right one matters.
Common causes
- Low refrigerant, often due to a leak
- A faulty or failing compressor
- A damaged or blocked condenser
- Electrical faults affecting sensors or switches
- Worn drive belts or hoses
Why a regas alone might not fix it
If refrigerant has escaped because of a leak or fault, simply topping it up will only provide a temporary improvement before the problem returns. Identifying the underlying cause is important for a lasting fix.
Getting it properly diagnosed
A proper diagnostic inspection can check refrigerant levels, temperature, compressor operation, condenser condition, belts, hoses and evidence of leaks.
