Tempco Air Heat & Refrigeration - Baton Rouge's Trusted HVAC Services

Common signs of duct leakage include uneven heating or cooling between rooms, unusually high energy bills, and excessive dust. In our humid climate, leaky ducts in attics or crawl spaces can also pull in moist air, making your AC work harder. We perform thorough duct inspections and pressure tests to locate leaks you can't see, then seal them professionally to improve comfort, lower bills, and reduce strain on your HVAC system.

Yes, poor cooling, ice on coils, or hissing sounds can indicate a refrigerant leak. Simply adding more refrigerant is a temporary fix. Our approach is to first locate the exact source of the leak using electronic leak detectors. We then repair the leak, whether in a coil, line, or connection, and perform a vacuum test to ensure the system is sealed. Finally, we recharge it with the precise amount of refrigerant required by the manufacturer for efficient, reliable cooling in the Baton Rouge heat.

We recommend biannual maintenance in spring and fall. Our preventative tune-up includes checking refrigerant levels and pressures for early leak detection, inspecting duct connections and seals, cleaning coils to prevent strain, and ensuring all electrical components are tight. This proactive care helps catch small issues before they become major repairs, keeping your system running efficiently and extending its life against our demanding local weather conditions.
