Check for Obvious Issues: We start by visually inspecting your A/C system for any leaks, worn-out components, or unusual noises.
Cabin Air Filter Inspection: We also check the cabin air filter to ensure it isn’t clogged or dirty, as this can affect A/C performance.
Temperature Check: We measure the temperature at the vents to gauge the system’s cooling efficiency.
Pressure Check: We use gauges to check the high and low-pressure sides of your A/C system, ensuring that the refrigerant levels and pressures are within the manufacturer’s specifications.
Check for Low Refrigerant: Low refrigerant levels can indicate a leak. We may add refrigerant if necessary and check for leaks using UV dye or an electronic leak detector.
Evacuate and Recharge Refrigerant: If the system is low on refrigerant, the mechanic will evacuate the system, removing any air and moisture, and then recharge it with the correct amount of refrigerant.
UV Dye Test: If there’s suspicion of a refrigerant leak, we inject UV dye into the system and use a UV light to locate the leak.
Leak Sealing or Component Replacement: Once the leak is located, we’ll either seal it or replace any faulty components, such as hoses, seals, or the compressor.
Compressor Check: We inspect the compressor for proper function. If the compressor is faulty, we may recommend repair or replacement.
Inspect Electrical Connections: We check wiring and fuses related to your A/C system, ensuring that all electrical components are in working order.
Blower Motor Test: Our mechanic tests the blower motor to ensure it’s pushing enough air through the system.
Condenser Fan Check: We inspect the condenser fan to make sure it’s operating properly, as this is crucial for maintaining cool air.
Performance Evaluation: After completing repairs or service, we’ll test the A/C again, measuring the output temperature and checking for any remaining issues.
Road Test (if necessary): In some cases, we might perform a road test to ensure that the A/C system is functioning well under real driving conditions.
Future Recommendations: We will provide advice on how to keep your A/C system in good shape, such as regular filter replacements and periodic check-ups before the summer season.
Our Air Conditioning Service will fix 9% of A/C related issues in less than few hours. It makes it easy for you to stop by, get your car fixed and leave!
