Vinkare Air Conditioning & Heating | Top-Rated HVAC Repair in New Brunswick, NJ

Yes, a refrigerant leak is a very common cause of poor cooling, especially as systems age in our climate. We use electronic leak detectors to precisely locate the source. Once found, we repair the leak, perform a vacuum test to ensure it's sealed, and then recharge the system with the exact amount of refrigerant specified by the manufacturer. This restores efficiency and cooling power, saving you money on energy bills.

That greenish buildup is likely corrosion from oxidation, a frequent issue here due to humidity and environmental factors. We perform a professional coil cleaning to remove the corrosion and debris. For protection, we can apply a specialized coil coating that inhibits future corrosion and improves heat transfer. This service helps prevent breakdowns, maintains system efficiency, and can significantly extend the life of your condenser.

We recommend bi-annual maintenance—once in spring for your AC and once in fall for your heater. Our thorough tune-up includes checking refrigerant levels and pressures to catch small leaks early, cleaning the indoor and outdoor coils to prevent corrosion and maintain efficiency, inspecting electrical components, and ensuring proper airflow. This proactive care is the best way to avoid unexpected repairs, improve energy efficiency, and ensure reliable comfort year-round.
