Patterson Energy - Hicksville's Expert HVAC Services

Yes, a refrigerant leak is a common issue in our area that causes both poor cooling and high energy bills as the system works harder. Our technicians use advanced electronic leak detectors to locate the leak precisely. We then repair the leak, perform a system evacuation to remove moisture and air, and recharge the refrigerant to the manufacturer's exact specification, restoring efficiency and cooling performance.

Regular maintenance is key to preventing the inefficiencies that lead to high energy bills. Our Hicksville-based maintenance service includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, calibrating thermostats, and ensuring all components are running optimally. This proactive care improves system efficiency by up to 15%, directly reducing your monthly energy consumption and catching small issues, like developing leaks, before they become costly problems.

When replacing your HVAC system, it's crucial to choose the right size and a high-efficiency model suited to your Hicksville home's layout. We perform a Manual J load calculation to ensure perfect sizing. We recommend systems with higher SEER ratings for cooling and features like leak-resistant connections or refrigerants with lower global warming potential. Proper installation by our certified team ensures peak efficiency from day one, guarding against the common issues that plague poorly sized or installed systems.
