Nitrogen Pressure Testing in Chicago, IL
Find the Leak Before You Pay for Another Recharge
If your AC has been recharged before and lost its cooling again within months, the leak was never actually found, it was just topped off. That’s money spent on refrigerant that’s already gone.
Tabor’s uses nitrogen pressure testing to locate leaks precisely, including the small or hard-to-reach ones that basic electronic detectors miss, so the repair we make actually holds.
We offer this as a standalone diagnostic and as a required step before every recharge we perform, we don’t add refrigerant to a system we haven’t confirmed is sealed.
📞 Call (773) 715-3860 or Book Online to schedule a nitrogen pressure test today.
Certified Chicago HVAC Experts You Can Trust
Is This the Right Service for You?
Nitrogen testing is the right call if:
- You’ve had your AC recharged before and it’s losing cooling again
- A previous technician said they “couldn’t find” the leak
- Your system loses refrigerant slowly over a season rather than all at once
- You want confirmation a repair actually worked before paying for a recharge
- You have an R-22 system and want to be certain it’s sealed before spending on increasingly expensive refrigerant
If your AC has never been recharged and is simply not cooling, start with our AC Not Cooling diagnostic instead, we’ll determine if nitrogen testing is even needed.
What You Get With This Service
- Full nitrogen pressurization of your refrigerant circuit
- Monitored pressure hold to detect and quantify any leak
- Precise leak location, not just confirmation that one exists
- Repair of the leak if one is found
- Re-test after repair to confirm the fix held
- Evacuation and recharge once the system is confirmed sealed
One visit, one technician, leak found and fixed, not multiple return trips guessing at the source.
Why Skipping This Step Costs You More
Topping off refrigerant without confirming a leak is sealed means you’re paying for refrigerant that’s going to escape again. We’ve seen homeowners recharge the same system two or three times in a single season because the actual leak point was never identified. A nitrogen test the first time around would have cost less than the second recharge. This is why nitrogen testing is built into our AC Recharge service, we don’t skip it.

Alan and his team are easy to work with. They are professional from start to finish in addition to being good at their job and luckily reasonably priced. Myself and my neighbors know Alan and have used his company for years. He runs a successful family business which is another reason to call him and not the big guys who overcharge for less service.

We needed two ac units and one furnace for our dual zone townhome. We shopped around for quotes, but we decided to go with Alan because of his competitive quote, knowledge of the products, and quick responses to our text messages.
The project was difficult installation because one of the furnaces is on the top floor of our townhome and the two ac units are on the top roof. Alan's crew had to go up and down the fire escape and ladder to bring in and install new the units.
They did a great job! They did not stop working until all three units were installed. They even came when it was raining. After a couple of weeks, we noticed an unusual sound coming from the new HVAC. I texted Alan and his crew came two days in a row to diagnose and fix problem.
We highly recommend them. Really great work!

We had a very good experience with Tabor's. Our thermostat was dead; we called Tabor's at 11 on Saturday, and Alan was out there to take a look by 2. It took him less than half an hour to get everything figured out and to install a new thermostat. At a reasonable price, too!

Tabors Complete Comfort did an outstanding job at my home! From start to finish, they were extremely knowledgeable and professional. They took the time to thoroughly evaluate my HVAC system and clearly explained what was needed to make it more efficient and comfortable for me and my family.
They corrected and added proper supply ducts from the furnace and fixed the return airflow issues, ensuring that every area of my home receives consistent heat during the winter months and balanced central air during the summer. The difference in comfort was noticeable right away.

I’m very happy with the service received from Tabor. Professional, honest & helped to make sure , after evaluating the problem, that we understood what was causing the problem & how to fix it! Pricing was great as well!!! No where near the thousands of $$$ quoted by others advertising on tv for our business & making up problems that don’t exist!! Thank you so much for your honestly & professionalism I will definitely refer your business to others.
