India, April 25 --  With temperatures rising across many parts of India, air conditioners have become essential for staying comfortable indoors. However, many households face cooling problems during peak summer, often due to low refrigerant gas or poor maintenance. Experts say understanding the type of gas used in air conditioners, knowing when to refill it, and maintaining the system regularly can help improve cooling performance and reduce electricity costs.

Air conditioners rely on refrigerant gas to remove heat from indoor spaces and maintain cool temperatures. Over time, leaks or poor servicing can reduce gas levels, making the unit less effective and increasing energy consumption.
