Fridge Gas Refill in Dhaka — Professional Refrigerator Gas Charging
When your fridge stops cooling, the root cause is almost always low refrigerant gas. Jeet Refrigeration And AC Service Center Ltd. sends trained technicians to your doorstep anywhere in Dhaka city — detect leaks, fix them properly, and refill gas so your fridge starts cooling again the same day.
Is Your Fridge Not Cooling? You Might Need a Gas Refill
Most people assume their fridge is broken when it stops cooling. In reality, refrigerant gas often just needs a top-up — but only after finding and fixing the leak. Here are the signs that point to low gas.
Compressor Runs But Fridge Stays Warm
You hear the motor running continuously yet the inside temperature does not drop. This is the most common symptom of low refrigerant.
Frozen Food Thawing Unexpectedly
If items in your freezer compartment start defrosting even though the fridge is plugged in and switched on, gas level has likely dropped too low.
Hissing Sound Near the Back Panel
A faint hissing or bubbling noise from the rear of the fridge usually means refrigerant is escaping through a crack or joint in the piping.
Sudden Spike in Electricity Bill
When gas is low, the compressor works overtime trying to reach the set temperature. That extra runtime directly shows up on your DESCO or DPDC bill.
Frost Buildup on Evaporator Coils
Partial gas charge causes uneven cooling, leading to ice formation on the evaporator coil inside the freezer section instead of uniform cooling.
Fridge Takes Hours to Cool After Power Cut
Normally a fridge regains temperature within 30–40 minutes. If it takes several hours, the gas charge is insufficient and needs attention.
Types of Refrigerator Gas We Work With
Not every fridge uses the same refrigerant. Using the wrong gas can damage the compressor permanently. Our technicians identify the correct type from the sticker on your fridge’s compressor compartment before starting any fridge gas refill in dhaka.

|---|---|---|---|
R134a |
Medium and large fridges (200L+), double-door models |
Tk. 1,500 – Tk. 2,500 |
Non-flammable, widely available |
R600a |
Small and medium fridges (under 200L), single-door models |
Tk. 1,200 – Tk. 2,000 |
Highly efficient, but flammable |
R22 |
Very old refrigerators (manufactured before 2005) |
Tk. 1,800 – Tk. 3,000 |

How We Refill Your Fridge Gas — Step by Step
We do not just pump gas into your fridge and leave. Our professional fridge gas refill service in dhaka follows a proper procedure that fixes the root cause first.
Initial Inspection
Technician checks the compressor, evaporator coil, and condenser. Reads the gas type from the sticker. Identifies visible damage or corrosion on copper pipes.
Remaining Gas Recovery
If any refrigerant is still inside the system, it is safely recovered using a recovery machine instead of venting into the air.
Nitrogen Leak Detection
High-pressure nitrogen is pumped into the system. A drop in pressure reading confirms there is a leak. Soap bubble test pinpoints the exact spot.
Leak Repair by Welding
The cracked or punctured section of the copper tube is brazed or soldered shut. For evaporator coil leaks, a special patch or replacement is done.
Vacuum Pulling
A deep vacuum is created inside the sealed system for 20–30 minutes. This removes all moisture, air, and nitrogen — critical for long-term performance.
Precise Gas Charging
The correct weight of refrigerant (measured in grams on a digital scale) is charged into the system. Overcharging or undercharging both harm cooling efficiency.
Performance Testing
Fridge is switched on and monitored for 25–30 minutes. Temperature drop, compressor amp draw, and frost pattern on evaporator are checked.

Why You Should Never Attempt a DIY Fridge Gas Refill
There are plenty of YouTube tutorials showing how to refill fridge gas at home. Most of them skip critical steps and can easily cause permanent damage to your refrigerator — or worse, create a safety hazard.
R600a refrigerant, used in most modern single-door fridges sold in Bangladesh, is highly flammable. A small spark near a gas leak during a DIY refill can cause a fire. This is not speculation — it has happened multiple times in Dhaka. Only trained technicians with proper brazing equipment, nitrogen cylinders, and vacuum pumps should handle R600a.
Beyond safety, the actual problem with DIY refills is that people skip leak detection and vacuum pulling. Without finding and fixing the leak, the new gas escapes within days or weeks. Without a proper vacuum, moisture stays inside the system and forms ice blocks that choke the capillary tube. You end up spending money on gas multiple times instead of fixing it once properly.
At Jeet Refrigeration And AC Service Center Ltd., we follow the complete procedure every single time. That is why our gas refills last years, not days. If you also need AC repair or washing machine repair service dhaka, we handle those too.
How Often Should Refrigerator Gas Be Refilled?
Under normal conditions, a refrigerator should never need a gas refill. The refrigerant circulates in a sealed closed-loop system — it does not get used up or evaporate. If your fridge needs gas refilling, it means there is a leak somewhere in the system.
That said, small micro-leaks can develop over years due to vibration, corrosion on copper joints, or factory welding defects. A well-repaired fridge should not need another refill for 3 to 5 years minimum. If a technician tells you to get gas refilled every 6 months, find a different technician — they are not fixing the actual leak.
For businesses running commercial refrigerators — restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies — more frequent checks make sense because these units run 24/7 under heavy load. We offer maintenance contracts for commercial setups. Contact us to discuss a plan.
