Maintaining Optimal Refrigerant Levels for Peak AC Performance

At Jacobazzi Heating & Cooling, we understand the critical role that refrigerant plays in your air conditioning system. Today, we’ll delve into the technical aspects of refrigerant charge and why it’s crucial for your AC’s efficiency and longevity.

What is Refrigerant Charge?

Refrigerant charge refers to the amount of refrigerant in your air conditioning system. This specialized fluid is responsible for absorbing heat from inside your home and releasing it outdoors, effectively cooling your living space.

Why Proper Charge Matters

An accurately charged AC system is essential for:

• Optimal cooling efficiency
• Lower energy consumption
• Reduced wear and tear on components
• Extended system lifespan

Signs of Incorrect Refrigerant Charge

1. Overcharged System:
– Unusually high pressure in the system
– Compressor damage due to liquid refrigerant entering
– Increased energy consumption

2. Undercharged System:
– Reduced cooling capacity
– Ice formation on evaporator coils
– Compressor overheating
