What are the signs that my car's AC needs a recharge?

If your car's AC is blowing warm air, taking longer to cool, or has reduced cooling performance, it may need a recharge. Unusual noises or unpleasant odors from the AC system can also indicate a problem.

How often should I have my car's AC system checked?

It's recommended to have your car's AC system checked at least once a year, especially before the hot summer months. Regular checks can help prevent major issues and ensure your AC is functioning efficiently.

How long does an AC recharge and diagnostics service take?

Typically, an AC recharge and diagnostics service takes about 8 hours. However, the exact time can vary depending on the condition of your AC system and if any additional repairs are needed.

What does the AC diagnostic service include?

Our AC diagnostic service includes a thorough inspection of the entire AC system, checking for leaks using UV dye, assessing the refrigerant levels, and testing the performance of the compressor, condenser, and other components. We'll identify any issues and communicate to you with any recommend repairs or maintenance.
