If your aircon blows air but the room won't get cold even after 30 minutes, and you recently had it serviced, low gas is the most likely cause. If it was never serviced, try a general service first — sometimes a dirty coil mimics low-gas symptoms.

A properly sealed aircon never loses gas — refrigerant isn't consumed like fuel. If your unit keeps needing top-ups every few months, there is a leak that needs to be found and fixed.

No. Using the wrong refrigerant type can permanently damage your compressor and void your warranty. R22, R410a, and R32 are not interchangeable. We always verify your unit's label before adding any gas.

Ice on outdoor copper pipes usually means low gas — a top-up will fix it. Ice on the indoor unit often means a dirty filter or coil. We'll check both during the visit.

30–45 minutes for a straightforward top-up with no leaks. If we find and repair a leak on the same visit, budget 1–1.5 hours total.
