A refrigerant leak in your air conditioning or HVAC system is more than an inconvenience, it can harm the system, raise your energy bill, and affect indoor comfort. At Trusted Plumbing & Heating, our technicians specialize in identifying, repairing, and preventing any refrigerant leak efficiently.

Why a Refrigerant Leak Demands Immediate Repair
What happens when a refrigerant leak occurs
When a refrigerant leak develops in your HVAC or refrigeration system, it leads to reduced cooling, frozen coils, and weak airflow. The system struggles to maintain temperature balance, making your air conditioning unit work harder. Prolonged refrigerant leaks cause compressor damage and high utility bills, which can result in total system failure if ignored.
Health and safety effects of refrigerant leaks
Any refrigerant leak, whether small or large, can release substances that are unsafe for prolonged exposure. Freon leaks in particular may cause breathing irritation or headaches. Because these gases fall under EPA leak regulations, leak repair must follow strict environmental guidelines. Our technicians meet all repair requirements to ensure safety while restoring your HVAC system to full performance.
