Warranty company is denying coverage quoting that the freon in the airconditioning unit is empty they say it takes a longtime to get it empty but our AC was working fine till last week. Is it true?

Answer 1

Depending on the size of the leak in the system, it is possible to loose all of the refridgerant charge in one week.

So, if your question, "Is it true," relates to a refridgerant leak only being long term, then the answer is no, it is not true.

On the other hand, if they checked the system and found a very small, slow leak, that would have taken a longtime, then that also is true.

I don't understand how they are trying to get out of warranty service based on a long, slow leak. A problem is a problem, and a covered problem should be covered under the warranty.
