A refrigerant leak is probably the most common problem we encounter with air conditioning systems. Since refrigerant is full of chemicals, it’s important to get a leak repaired as soon as possible to avoid harm to your health and damage to your AC unit and home.

Common Causes of Refrigerant Leaks
- Common in Copper Coils or Tubing: Formaldehyde found inside most homes builds up on copper coils and causes formicary corrosion. As a result, small pinhole leaks are formed on the copper.
- Weakened Joints: Through normal wear-and-tear, joints and connections become weaker.
- Old Age: Since refrigerant passes through coils at a high pressure, over time it causes the inside of coils to wear down.
