AC refrigerant leak repair in Los Angeles generally costs $200 to $1,500, and the price is driven almost entirely by where the leak is. A loose or corroded line-set fitting is cheap to reseal. A leak at a brazed joint or a Schrader valve is moderate. A leak inside the evaporator or condenser coil is the expensive one, because the coil often has to be replaced, and on an older system a new coil can cost as much as a meaningful chunk of a new unit. The repair also includes recovering any remaining refrigerant, fixing the leak, pulling a vacuum, and recharging to spec. Always fix the leak before recharging, otherwise you are paying for refrigerant that will leak out again. Call LA Heating & Air at (818) 660-1062 for same-day leak detection and a flat quote.
