AC gas refill is the process of restoring the refrigerant in your air conditioning system to the correct level. Refrigerant is essential for cooling, as it absorbs heat from indoor air and releases it outside. Over time, due to leaks or system wear, the refrigerant level can drop, leading to poor cooling performance, higher energy consumption, or even system damage. Refilling the gas ensures your AC cools efficiently, operates smoothly, and maintains indoor comfort, especially in Qatar’s extreme heat.
It’s important to note that refrigerant does not get "used up" — if it’s low, there’s likely a leak that should be inspected and fixed before refilling.
If your AC is blowing warm air, takes longer to cool, forms ice on the coils, or makes hissing sounds, it could be low on refrigerant and may need a refill.
Refrigerant is not consumed like fuel. It only needs to be refilled if there’s a leak or loss of pressure. A well-maintained AC shouldn't require regular refills.
No. Each AC unit is designed for a specific type of refrigerant (like R22 or R410A). Using the wrong type can damage the system and void the warranty. A technician will use the correct gas based on your unit’s specifications.
