Commercial Refrigerator – Freon Leak Detected | San Jose

We received a service call from a grocery store in San Jose. The owner, Marco, reported that the refrigerated display case was no longer maintaining the proper temperature. Cooling dropped quickly, especially in the beverage section — putting part of the stock at risk. Losses were just a matter of time.

Diagnostics revealed a Freon leak near the compressor ⚠️ — an unusual and rare case. Most refrigerant leaks happen in the evaporator or condenser coil, but here, the leak was found right at the compressor connection.
(See photo — soap bubbles clearly show the leak location.)

Without reliable cooling, the unit becomes a liability, causing daily business losses.
