Oh no. Most of these systems do not come from the factory with service ports that allow you to add R-134a. You will need to buy a clamp on piercing valve then add the refrigerant. The leak is most likely in the evaporator coil where the wine is stored, and the R-134a will leak out again soon. Replacement or repairing the leak will take care of the issue, also the weight in ounces of refrigerant should be on the data tag of the unit next to the model number. Try not to exceed the recommended charge.

Put freon in now not cooling

was compressor running prior to putting in freon --to much freon acts the same as to little freon no cooling --but if compressor not coming on than look into fuses and relays as source of problem

A/c compressor stopped cooling,clutch is engaged,is it possible to have too much freon in the unit,,

The system needs to be vacuumed down with a recovery machine and the proper amount of oil and freon added to ensure proper operation. The system most likely has air/moisture within it and will not function properly. Have it proffessionally serviced for adequate operation

I have central air and I was wondering how do you put freon in it because its not blowing out cool air

Is the compressor starting? On the outdoor unit you will see a large copper pipe and a small copper pipe. Is the larger of the two cold to the touch? wet? Just because a central air system is not blowing cool air does not mean it needs freon. If you have clogged filters it cannot do an air exchange. So, I would recommend checking the easiest things first before adding Freon.Most people make the mistake of adding Freon and overcharge their system. In a low load situation you can slug the compressor with liquid and your system is ruined. If you do have to add Freon it indicates that you have a leak. An AC System is a closed system and if it is working properly you should not have to add Freon.

We replaced the compressor and cooling radiator under the dash. Now it cools but not enough. Mechanic put in more freon, but it didn't help.

spray cold water on front condensor (rad) to see if this helps
would need to know what pressure are hi and low and cycles of comressors are
to much freon could overload the system and make it run warmer draw out
and put recomended amount in is air flow out at duct proper could have cabin filter
pluged up or blend door not working (sealing properly)

Window unit not cooling how to put in freon

You have to put a piercing valve on the sucction side because this units don't come with service port, but if you going to add freon ,it is better to fix the leak before and after that replace the drier and vacum the system.

Sometimes the clutch pulls in on the compressor but most of the time it doesnt i tried to put freon in it but it wouldnt take

if the clutch is worn and when the a/c works, it works OK, then the clutch gap is excesive and will need to be adjusted. you cant put freon in without the engine running, the low side pressure will be too high. get the compressor running first. if it cools ok, then dont add freon.

I put freon in my vehicle.....now it is overheating

If the A/C is cooling properly you did not put too much freon in the system.
Check the cooling system level and make sure the fan is working properly. If it is an electric cooling fan, it should come on when you turn the A/C on. If it is a mechanical fan, the fan should be making a "roar" sound when the vehicle is at or above normal running temperature and the A/C is on.
Also make certain there are no obstructions between the A/C condenser and radiator or in front of the radiator.
Let me know and we can go from there.
Regards,

AC WON'T COOL

Sounds like you have a freon leak or your compressor has stopped working. You will probably need a service tech. If it is out of freon, don't let them just add more freon, make them find and repair the leak first. Good Luck.
