What we did
Sometimes the label on an outdoor unit is faded, missing, or simply does not tell you much. That was the case at this Nicholasville home in October 2025, and the lack of information led to a full inspection of the HVAC system.
Max, one of our technicians, went through the unit's components to fill in the gaps. Along the way he confirmed that the system runs on R22 refrigerant. He also checked that everything was functioning properly and took documentation photos so there would be a clear record for future reference.
Knowing which refrigerant a system uses is more than a technical detail. R22 has been phased out in the United States, which affects what servicing that equipment looks like down the road. For a homeowner, having that confirmed and documented helps with planning, whether that means keeping the current system running or budgeting for a replacement at some point. Photos taken now also save time on future visits, since the next technician can see what is there before arriving. Many Kentucky homes still have older equipment like this in service. If you are not sure what your system uses or how old it is, we can inspect it and give you straight information.
