Why is Freon not working?
Refrigerant or Freon If your car A/C not blowing cold air consistently, the first thing to check is the refrigerant level. The refrigerant is the fluid that passes around the entire A/C system. The A/C in your vehicle is a sealed system. Any loss of refrigerant can be attributed to leaks in the system.
What happens if home AC is overcharged?
The Consequences of an Overcharged Air Conditioner One major problem is that when there’s too much refrigerant, it won’t be able to properly switch between gaseous and liquid state, and more of it will remain in liquid state. This will harm the system’s efficiency and affect cooling in the house.

How much Freon is lost in an A / C system?
Note, This information offers some insight into nominal loss of Freon in automotive systems. Based on 1000 A/C units opened and recorded by 9 garages in 2000 (three different German car makes), the rate of normal loss is assessed at 6.3 % per year (25% tolerance band) over the first seven years of ex work A/C systems’ use phase.
