Is $4,190 to repair refrigerant leak and recharge system a fair price?
Project Details
My A/C stopped cooling this morning, and the condensing unit fan is not functioning. The capacitor is rated for 40/5 but drawing 0/0. The technician stated the refrigerant is low and the unit is not running efficiently. The technician advised that since the unit is from 2009, it might be better to replace the entire unit as issues may continue to arise if we only do a "quick fix". I haven't had to have work done on this unit outside of regular maintenance in years.
