What is air conditioning high-pressure hose replacement?
A leaking high-pressure hose is replaced to stop refrigerant escaping.
The high-pressure hose carries hot refrigerant from the compressor. Vibration and heat can crack the hose or fittings, causing slow leaks.
Signs you need it
- Air conditioning loses gas
- Oily residue on the hose or fittings
- Hissing near the compressor
How it works
- Recover refrigerant
- Replace the hose and seals
- Vacuum and recharge
- Leak test
You can choose a workshop visit or have a professional come to your home, work or depot.
