When a minisplit stops cooling, the instinct is to assume the worst. But a lot of the time, the culprit is a refrigerant leak - and if you find it, you fix it. That's exactly what we were dealing with on this LG two-zone ductless system in Newberg.

Here's what we were working with: a system that simply wasn't keeping up. The homeowner had no cool air coming through, and the unit was running but not doing its job. Before any repair can happen, you have to go through a proper diagnostic. No shortcuts.

We isolated the system, worked through the diagnostic process step by step, and tracked down the leak that was causing the cooling failure. With ductless systems, especially multi-zone setups, there are a few places a leak can hide. Getting it right means not guessing - it means checking everything until you have a confirmed answer.

That's the thing about refrigerant leaks. A rushed repair that doesn't address the actual source of the problem just means the system loses charge again and you're right back where you started. We'd rather take the extra time up front and get it done right the first time.

Ductless minisplits are efficient, flexible systems - but they do need proper care when something goes wrong. If your system is running but not cooling, or you've noticed it struggling to keep up, that's worth looking into sooner rather than later.
