First post, so, HI! 👍🏻

One of our household aircon units has been leaking and needed degassing. The engineers were here approx 30 mins. They regassed one unit and remade joints on both units. Any ideas what price we should be expecting? I think the price they're asking is a bit excessive, but it could just be me being 'cautious'. 😄

Cheers!

The cost of refridgerant has also increased by a huge margin in the last couple of years .

Thanks for the replies, €210 doesn't seem so bad then.

€210 is a very good price, however as they were only there for 30 mins I doubt they would have had time to do a proper degass, leak test, vacuum test and recharge - seems to me they simply fixed some leaks (did they check for others) and then topped up with gas until unit was cooling okay...?!
