AC Repair

THE FACTS ABOUT LEAKS

If your car’s air conditioning is not blowing cold, then the refrigerant may be low, caused by a leak or a system component that has failed. Over time leaks can get worse and damage other components. Therefore, it is important to have your vehicle serviced as soon as you think there is an issue with your air conditioner.

  • Refrigerant leaks:

  • Most common sources include worn, inelastic or brittle seals, o-rings, hoses, loose fittings and connections

  • Can compromise more important parts of the system like the compressor and evaporator if not addressed

  • Are not good for the environment and are now government-regulated

R-134a is the current acceptable refrigerant used in most automotive repair facilities.

Fluid Check

FUEL SYSTEM CLEANING SERVICES

Removing the buildup of dirt and particles in your fuel system will not only help restore and improve your vehicle's performance and reduce emissions. It will also help improve your gas mileage and overall driveability.

Oil for the Car

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICES

Maintaining your vehicle according to dealership recommendations not only keeps your vehicle's warranty valid, but it also prevents costly repairs once the warranty has expired. Having repairs done at independent repair facilities does not void the warranty.

Car Air Conditioning

WHY IS MY CAR'S A/C BLOWING HOT AIR?

There’s nothing cool about cruising in warm, sticky weather with a broken A/C. From a leak to a worn-out filter/condenser to loose wires and even excessive heat radiation from the engine — there are a number of reasons your A/C isn’t working the way it should.

We service nearly all vehicle makes and models. We have the latest state of the art fully automatic AC machine

Let us diagnose the issue and determine what repairs are necessary.

Our service technician will:

  • Visually inspect and test the A/C compressor

  • Visually inspect and test accessible components for leaks or damage

  • Evacuate the system’s refrigerant

  • Vacuum test the system

  • Recharge the air conditioning system with the proper amount of refrigerant.
