What we did
A malfunctioning air conditioning system brought us to a home in Lancaster in September 2026. With summer heat often lingering into early fall in Kentucky, the system needed to be working again.
Before tracking down the problem, we set the system up so it could be worked on properly. It was pumped down, with nitrogen in the evaporator and refrigerant in the condenser, and the service valves closed. That approach keeps the refrigerant contained while parts of the system are opened up. With everything secured, we located the leak in the condenser unit and repaired it. Once the work was complete, the air conditioning system was back to proper functionality.
Leaks are one of the more common reasons an air conditioner stops working well, and they do not fix themselves. Adding refrigerant without finding the leak only buys time, while locating and repairing the source addresses the actual problem. As a Lancaster-based company, we are glad to handle work like this for our own neighbors, and a careful, methodical repair is the right way to handle it. The homeowner now has an air conditioning system that is functioning the way it should.
