Residential AC Refrigerant Charging & Leak Repair

Is your central air conditioner running but not cooling properly? Has another HVAC company told you that R22 is unavailable, refused to service your older system, or recommended replacing the entire system immediately?

Jiffy Cool provides professional residential refrigerant diagnostics, leak detection, repair, and charging for central air-conditioning systems throughout Duluth, Lawrenceville, Suwanee, Peachtree Corners, Lilburn, all of Gwinnett County, and surrounding communities. We service systems designed for R22, R410A, R32, and R454B refrigerants.

We currently stock R22 refrigerant for qualifying systems. Because R22 is no longer produced or imported into the United States and available supplies are limited, it is considerably more expensive than it once was. We will explain the condition of your equipment and review practical repair options before recommending full system replacement.

Yes! Your Older R22 System May Still Be Repairable

An older R22 air conditioner does not automatically need to be replaced simply because it has lost refrigerant. Depending on the system’s overall condition, the location and size of the leak, parts availability, and the cost of repair, it may be possible to:

• Locate and repair the refrigerant leak
• Replace a leaking coil or another failed component
• Correct a service-valve or connection leak
• Evacuate and recharge the system  with the proper refrigerant
• Restore cooling without replacing the complete HVAC system

Every system is different. If repair is safe and financially reasonable, we will explain that option. If the equipment has severe damage, repeated leaks, major compressor problems, or repair costs that no longer make sense, we will tell you honestly 

We Service R22, R410A, R32 & R454B Systems

R22 Refrigerant Service

R22 is found in many older residential central-air systems. New R22 production and import ended in the United States, but existing equipment can still be serviced with legally available reclaimed or previously produced refrigerant. We stock R22 for appropriate repairs and charging, subject to availability.

R410A Refrigerant Service

R410A is used in many residential air conditioners and heat pumps. We diagnose low-charge conditions, search for leaks, perform approved repairs, and recharge compatible R410A systems to manufacturer specifications.

R32 and R454B Refrigerant Service

Many newer air-conditioning systems use lower-global-warming-potential refrigerants such as R32 or R454B. These refrigerants are classified as A2L, meaning mildly flammable, and require compatible equipment, specialized procedures, and properly trained service technicians. We service qualifying R32 and R454B systems according to equipment-manufacturer requirements and applicable safety standards.

Important: Refrigerants are not interchangeable. We use only the refrigerant specified for your equipment. R32 or R454B should not simply be added to a system designed for R22 or R410A.

Why Is My Air Conditioner Low on Refrigerant?

Central air-conditioning systems do not normally “use up” refrigerant like a car uses gasoline. If the charge is low, the system may have a leak or may have been incorrectly charged during an earlier service.

Common leak locations include:

• Indoor evaporator coils
• Outdoor condenser coils
• Refrigerant line sets
• Service valves and valve cores
• Brazed joints and fittings
• Components damaged by vibration      or corrosion

Adding refrigerant without determining why the system is low may provide only temporary relief. That is why we recommend a leak search and repair whenever practical before completing the final charge.
