Fujitsu Aircon Gas Leak Repair – AOAG24LAT3 at 373 Clementi Avenue 4 HDB on 31 Aug 2024

The homeowner noticed a decline in air conditioner performance, with cooling efficiency diminishing shortly after a handyman performed a gas top-up. Concerned, they reached out to Homeone for assistance. According to the homeowner, the air conditioner's cooling capacity began to drop after 3 months of the gas top-up, leading us to suspect a potential gas leak in the system. We promptly conducted an on-site assessment for gas leak detection.

During the visit, our BCA-trained technician identified signs of a gas leak, including oil residues on the joints of the refrigerant pipes and the condenser unit (CU). The leak was traced to insufficient tightening of the joint by the handyman. After receiving the technician’s report, the Homeone office team explained the situation to the homeowner and proposed a solution: re-flaring and rejoining the refrigerant pipes to the condenser unit. The homeowner agreed to proceed, and the rejoining work was carried out in full compliance with safety standards by our BCA-trained air conditioning technician.
