HVAC Services Cleveland OH | Call Lake Erie Heating & Cooling

Common signs include your AC blowing warm air, ice forming on the refrigerant lines or outdoor unit, a noticeable hissing or bubbling sound, and a sudden spike in your energy bills. In Cleveland's humidity, a leak can also make it hard for your system to remove moisture, leaving your home feeling damp and sticky. If you notice these issues, it's best to call for a professional diagnosis to prevent further compressor damage.

Leaky ducts force your furnace and AC to work much harder, leading to uneven temperatures from room to room, higher utility costs, and excessive strain on your system. In our climate, leaking warm air into an attic or crawlspace in winter can also contribute to ice damming on your roof. We perform thorough duct inspections and sealing to ensure the air you pay to heat or cool is delivered efficiently throughout your entire home.

Many refrigerant leaks are repairable. Our technicians will locate the precise leak using electronic detectors or fluorescent dye. We then repair the joint, coil, or line and recharge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant to EPA standards. However, if the leak is extensive or the system is very old and uses phased-out R-22 refrigerant, a replacement might be more cost-effective. We'll provide a clear, honest assessment and all your options.
