Our Leak Search Process
Refrigerant leaks are the #1 cause of AC failure in Florida. We use a 3-level diagnostic to find what others miss.
We use high-sensitivity electronic sensors to "sniff" out refrigerant molecules in the air, locating even the smallest micro-leaks in your coils.
For complex cases, we inject a safe fluorescent dye into the system. Under UV light, the leak glows, showing us the exact point of escape.
We isolate the air handler and condenser, pressurizing them with Nitrogen to confirm 100% that the system is sealed and "cured."
Frequently Asked Questions
Ice on your unit is a clear symptom of a 'circulatory' problem. It usually means either restricted airflow or, most commonly, a refrigerant leak. Running a frozen unit can kill your compressor. Turn it off and call the 'Doctor' immediately.
Adding gas without fixing the leak is like putting water in a bucket with a hole. It's a temporary fix that wastes money and harms the environment. At Doctor Air, we find the hole and seal it to provide a long-lasting cure.
Leak detection requires specialized technology and time. Our pricing is personalized depending on whether we need to perform an electronic search or a full Nitrogen isolation test. We always provide a clear quote before starting the search.
