Refrigerants are the lifeblood of cooling systems, transferring heat to deliver the cool air you rely on daily.

The Role of Refrigerants

Refrigerants absorb heat from indoors and release it outdoors, enabling cooling cycles.

Their chemical properties determine efficiency and environmental impact.

Types of Refrigerants in Use

Older models often use R-22 refrigerants, which are being phased out due to ozone impact.

Modern ACs use R-410A or newer alternatives with lower environmental footprints.

Impact on Efficiency and Performance

Efficient refrigerants improve cooling capacity and reduce energy consumption.

Selecting units with advanced refrigerants enhances overall system performance.

Maintaining Proper Refrigerant Levels

Leaks or low levels degrade system efficiency and can cause damage.

Only certified technicians should handle refrigerants for safety and compliance.
