AC refrigerant leak — Krakow, Lesser Poland
An AC refrigerant leak means your system is losing the chemical that absorbs heat, causing it to blow warm air, run constantly, and drive up energy bills. Refrigerant doesn't get 'used up' — if levels are low, there's a leak. Only an EPA-certified HVAC technician can legally locate, repair, and recharge the system.
