An Aircon Gas Top-Up (or refrigerant top-up) involves adding more refrigerant to your air conditioning system. This is done when the existing gas level is low, which can impact cooling performance.

Aircon gas does not naturally deplete. If your aircon needs a top-up, it indicates there’s a leak in the system. Low gas levels cause poor cooling.

No. A gas top-up is a temporary solution if a leak exists. For a permanent fix, the leak must be identified and repaired first before topping up the gas.

Common signs include your aircon blowing warm or less cool air, reduced airflow, or higher electricity bills. Our technicians use specialized tools to detect gas leaks and check pressure levels.

No, a gas top-up is typically not included in standard general servicing. It’s a separate service performed only if a leak is detected and repaired, as adding gas without fixing the leak is inefficient and unsustainable.

While residential aircon gas leaks are generally not immediately dangerous in small amounts, they are harmful to the environment and compromise your unit’s efficiency. Significant leaks can reduce oxygen levels in enclosed spaces, so it’s best to address them promptly.
