Refrigerant sensor mounting mechanisms are provided herein. The mounting mechanisms allow the refrigerant sensor to be positioned at a bottom portion of a heat exchanger of an air conditioning system such that the refrigerant sensor is proximate to the drain pan of the air conditioning systems. The mounting mechanism may also allow for the refrigerant sensor to be mounted to the top of the drain pan, in some embodiments. By positioning the refrigerant sensor at this location, the refrigerant sensors are more likely to not only detect a refrigerant leak, but also detect the refrigerant leak quickly, as the leaked refrigerant is likely to settle at this location at the bottom of the air conditioning system.
