[quote=Anonymous]We just had a part replaced on a 2004 air conditioner for $400. Our repairperson told us that if we ever spring a coolant leak, it's game over for the unit. But our system wasn't leaky. I did some research and found it is true. It's extremely unlikely I could find recaptured coolant gas for my vintage of A/C unit and retrofitting doesn't work well so repairpeople don't sell that service. You need to know the age of your unit and the exact coolant gas that's in it. And shop around for a new unit. People use "freon" generically. No way to know if you are being b.s.'ed unless you have facts and multiple price quotes.[/quote]
