If the AC system is overcharged, the change from liquid to gas cannot happen, so the compressor starts producing liquid coolant instead of gas. It now has to work extremely hard to pump the excess coolant through the lines. The result is a noisy or broken compressor.

How do I know if my AC needs recharged?

1. Your A/C is Blowing Warm Air. One of the most obvious symptoms of low Freon levels is if your air conditioner is blowing warm or room temperature air.
2. Listen For The A/C Clutch to Engage.
3. Visible Refrigerant Leaks.
4. Your A/C is Blowing Warm Air.
5. Listen For The A/C Clutch to Engage.
6. Visible Refrigerant Leaks.

Does R-1234yf cool as good as R-134a?

The results of this study have shown that the cooling capacity of R1234yf AAC system is significantly lower (between 5 to 25 %) than R134a system. In the experiment, the power of the compressor is slightly lower (up to 11 %) for refrigerant R1234yf compared to R134a inside the AAC system.
