The Refrigerant Fallacy: Quality Over Quantity

At Schnorrbusch Heating & Air, we often encounter misconceptions about air conditioning systems. One persistent myth we’d like to address is the belief that adding more refrigerant to your AC unit will result in better cooling performance. Let’s dive into why this is not only false but potentially harmful to your system.

Understanding the Role of Refrigerant

Refrigerant is a crucial component in your air conditioning system, responsible for absorbing heat from inside your home and releasing it outside. However, it’s essential to understand that:

• AC units are designed to operate with a specific amount of refrigerant
• Overcharging can lead to decreased efficiency and potential system damage
• Only trained professionals should handle refrigerant

The Dangers of Overcharging

Adding too much refrigerant can cause:

1. Increased pressure in the system
2. Compressor damage
3. Reduced cooling efficiency
4. Higher energy bills
