Topping off refrigerant without fixing the leak is throwing money away. We find leaks and actually repair them.
If someone's been out to 'add Freon' more than once, you have a leak. Refrigerant doesn't wear out—it leaks out. Time to actually fix it.

We use electronic detectors, UV dye, and pressure testing to find exactly where it's leaking.
Finding a refrigerant leak isn't always obvious. Some leaks are fast—you lose a pound a week. Some are slow—takes all summer to get low.Our process:Electronic detection: Highly sensitive detectors that find refrigerant vapor. We check every joint, fitting, and component.UV dye: For slow leaks that are hard to pinpoint, UV dye circulates with the refrigerant and shows up under black light at the leak point.Nitrogen pressure testing: For stubborn leaks or when we need to be absolutely certain. Pressurize the system and listen, or use soap bubbles to find it.We don't guess. We find it.
We show you what we found and give you real choices—repair, replace, or honest conversation.
Once we find the leak, you get options:Simple leak: Fitting, valve, or accessible line leak. We braze it, replace the component, pull a vacuum, and recharge. Fixed.Coil leak: Evaporator coil with pinhole leaks. Sometimes we can repair individual leaks. Often the coil has multiple failures and replacement makes more sense. We'll show you the condition and let you decide.The honest conversation: If your system is old, uses R-22, and needs a coil replacement, we'll do the math with you. Sometimes fixing an old leaky system costs more than replacing it. We'll give you real numbers.No pressure. Your system, your money, your call.
We fix it right—brazing, component replacement, vacuum, and proper recharge.
Refrigerant repair isn't just soldering and hoping.If we're brazing: We flow nitrogen through the system during brazing to prevent oxidation inside the lines. We let joints cool properly. We leak-test the repair before moving on.After repair: Deep vacuum to remove moisture and air. At least 500 microns, held for 30 minutes. Anything less and you'll have problems.Then: Proper refrigerant charge by weight or superheat/subcooling, depending on your system. Not "until it feels cold."We document everything. What we found, what we fixed, how much refrigerant went in. You have a record.
We test the repair, run the system, and make sure it's actually fixed.
We don't button it up and hope.After repair, we leak test the fix. Run the system, check pressures, verify it's holding. Watch for temperature drop at the registers to confirm it's cooling properly again.We also tell you what to watch for. If it was a coil leak and we repaired one spot, the coil may develop more leaks later. We're honest about that.If it comes back within a reasonable time, we stand behind the repair.
Real leak detection, not just topping off and hoping.
Repair the leak, not just the symptoms. Stop paying for refrigerant every year.
If repair doesn't make sense, we'll tell you straight.
Vacuum, leak test, charge by spec. Done right.
