Does My Auto AC Have a Leak?
If your car’s air conditioner isn’t cooling as effectively as it used to, a refrigerant leak could be to blame. One of the most common signs of a leak is a gradual loss of cooling performance—your system may still blow air, but it won’t be as cold as usual. You might also hear a faint hissing sound coming from the engine bay or notice an oily residue around AC fittings, hoses or the
compressor.
In some cases, your aircon may stop working altogether if the refrigerant level drops too low. Leaks can develop over time due to worn seals, damaged hoses or corrosion. At Cool Cats Auto Air, we offer leak testing using specialised tools to detect and pinpoint the problem quickly, so we can fix it properly and get your aircon running efficiently again.
FAQs
What are the signs of an AC leak?
Reduced cooling, hissing sounds, oil stains on AC components or a system that no longer turns on can all indicate a refrigerant leak.
How do you detect small leaks in the system?
We use a combination of pressure testing, UV dye and electronic sniffers to detect even the smallest leaks with accuracy.
Can I still drive with an AC leak?
Yes, but continuing to use a leaking system can cause further damage, especially to the compressor.
