The Situation

Three days before forecast temperatures exceeded 40°C, a four-bedroom home's ducted AC stopped cooling effectively. The system was running, but indoor temperatures remained uncomfortable, and several occupied rooms were affected.

The Approach

A refrigerant leak was found and repaired. The system was pressure tested and recharged. Performance checks were done before handover.

1. Initial Assessment

The system was inspected to identify why the cooling performance had dropped.

 2. Fault Located

Diagnostic testing confirmed a refrigerant leak affecting system efficiency.

3. Repair Completed

Damaged components were repaired, and the refrigerant circuit sealed.

4. System Recharged

Refrigerant levels restored to manufacturer-recommended specifications.

5. Performance Verified

Cooling output is tested across all zones before project handover.

The Outcome

Cooling was restored within the same day. The system maintained 22-24°C across occupied areas and remained fully operational throughout the weekend heatwave, with noticeably stronger airflow reported by the homeowners.
