Leaking hose

[cokezero]

nag lleak ng oil yung low pressure na hose from compressor..
pag pinalitan ba yun kelangan mag lagay ulit ng freon? tska kelangan ba pati yung high pressure na hose palitan din?

na inquire ko kasi dati kelangan daw sabay palitan pag ganun..

any idea kung magkano aabutin sa pag palit ng hose? ang cleaning and freon nasa 1,500+ kasi

No idea on how much pero yes sisingaw freon niyan. The oil you mentioned is most probably freon. Up to you if you still want to change the hi comp. Pwede oo pwede hindi, the thing is mas ok isang gawaan kesa repair again kung bumigay hi comp then refill freon.

kelangan palitan ang hose na may butas.
required mag-refill ang freon and oil dahil pihadong nabawasan yan kapag palit ang hose. .
hindi required palitan ang isang hose kung hindi naman tumutulo. kung ayaw nila pumayag ay umalis ka na lang at magpagawa ka sa ibang puwestong pumapayag ng tingi.
my hoses are going 16 years and still not sprung a leak yet.. no reason why yours should be replaced if they aren't leaking..

The leaking hose should be replaced as a whole unit. Yes, you have to pay for a new charge of freon again, the AC shop will totally drain your freon charge. If they have a recycling machine, they can temporarily store your freon charge into that, replace the leaking hose and re-charge your own freon, adding if necessary. But I still have to see an AC shop that uses a recycling machine, apart from the big casa's (I may be wrong though). And lastly, the price of the hose will depend on how long it is. Most AC shops sell hoses by the foot.

had it fixed, 2100 ang binayad ko.. 1.5k general cleaning & freon tapos 600 sa hose na may leak..
ngayon concern ko is malakas yung buga ng hangin pero hindi ganun kalamig unless itodo ko sa cold yung thermostat.

kasi pag hindi naka todo ang bilis mag off ng compressor tapos hindi pa naman malamig ang binubuga nag ooff na agad..

hmm... possible causes sa new problem mo

1) May nag leak ulit na freon ...

2) Since nagpa cleaning ka, assuming kung binaklas yung evaporator and thermostat mo sa malamang nung binalik yung placement ng thermostat masyado malapit sa evaporator kaya ng shut off agad sya. Pwede ipa adjust ng ilayo ng konti pero wag naman sobra

3) Faulty thermostat
