Randy's Plumbing & Heating - Metairie's Licensed HVAC Repair

While it might not seem obvious, plumbing issues like leaks or poor drainage can contribute to excess humidity in your home, creating the perfect environment for mold to thrive in your HVAC ducts. Our comprehensive plumbing inspection includes checking for these moisture sources. By identifying and fixing leaks early, we help control indoor humidity levels, making it much harder for mold to take hold in your air conditioning system.

During our detailed HVAC inspection, our technicians perform several key checks for refrigerant issues. We measure system pressures and temperatures to ensure they are within manufacturer specifications, visually inspect all refrigerant line connections and the coil for signs of oil residue (a common indicator of a leak), and use electronic leak detectors for a thorough examination. Catching a small leak early prevents a loss of cooling capacity, higher energy bills, and potential compressor failure.

Yes, a refrigerant leak is a common cause of poor cooling performance in our area. If your system is low on refrigerant, it can't absorb heat effectively. When you call Randy's, our expert technicians will first check the air output temperature and listen for unusual hissing sounds. We then use professional-grade tools like electronic leak detectors and UV dye to pinpoint the exact location of the leak. This precise diagnosis allows us to make the most efficient and lasting repair, restoring your home's comfort.
