If your air conditioner is blowing warm air, freezing up, or not cooling as well as it used to, low refrigerant may be the culprit. Lloyd HVAC Services provides professional AC refrigerant recharge across Toronto, East York, North York, Etobicoke, Danforth, and Beaches East York. Importantly, we don’t just top off the refrigerant — we find and fix the leak first, because a properly sealed AC system should never need a recharge.

Frequently Asked Questions About Refrigerant Recharge
How much does a refrigerant recharge cost in Toronto?
Refrigerant recharge typically costs $200-$500, depending on the type and amount needed. Leak detection and repair are additional but essential — without fixing the leak, you’ll need another recharge soon.
My AC uses R-22 (Freon) — what should I do?
R-22 has been phased out in Canada. Options include using approved R-22 substitute refrigerants, or replacing the AC with a modern R-410A system. We’ll help you choose the most cost-effective path.
How do I know if my AC needs refrigerant?
Signs include: reduced cooling, ice forming on the refrigerant lines or evaporator coil, the AC running constantly without reaching the set temperature, and hissing sounds from the indoor unit.
Does AC refrigerant need to be replaced regularly?
No. AC refrigerant circulates in a sealed system and should never need topping off. If it’s low, there’s a leak that needs to be found and repaired.
