About Item
Gas Charging & Refrigerant Leak Detection is a critical refrigeration service for agricultural cold storages that ensures correct refrigerant levels and identifies leaks in the system. This service helps maintain cooling efficiency, prevent breakdowns, and reduce energy losses.
Service Overview
Refrigerant gas is the working medium of cold storage refrigeration systems. Low refrigerant levels or undetected leaks can lead to poor cooling performance, increased compressor load, higher power consumption, and potential system failure.
Gas Charging & Refrigerant Leak Detection provides accurate leak identification, rectification, and precise refrigerant charging to restore optimal refrigeration performance in agri cold storage facilities.
