AIR CON REPAIRS AND

RE-GASSING

There are lots of reasons why air conditioning units lose efficiency or fail altogether, including mould or mildew build up, the ventilation fan may be fried, a failed compressor etc. ​The most common issues people come to us with are:


  • The air con isn’t as cold as it used to be
  • Weak air flow
  • The air starts out cool then starts getting warm
  • A horrible smell


Whatever the problem is, we’re on hand for diagnosing and repairing, re-gassing and more. Like most issues with cars, the key is to catch the issue early. If you have any doubts, get in touch today.


R134A gas is common in vehicles manufactured before 2014. All vehicles with air conditioning manufactured since 1st January 2017 include the new R1234YF air con gas which is more environmentally friendly. Since this date, manufacturers are no longer allowed to use the older R134A air con gas in a bid to reduce global warming as the old gas is believed to be more damaging to the environment. R1234YF gas was phased in by vehicle manufacturers over time so vehicles rolling off the production line between 2014 and 2016 could require either gas. To find out which type of air conditioning gas your car needs and to start a booking to have your air con gas recharged.
