Air conditioning systems in vehicles are initially filled with refrigerant gas. However, over time, this gas gradually escapes through natural seepage. As the refrigerant level decreases, the A/C system must work harder to maintain the desired temperature, which puts additional strain on the engine. This increased workload can negatively impact your vehicle’s overall performance and fuel efficiency.
If the refrigerant level drops too low, the A/C system may shut down completely to prevent damage to its components. Regular maintenance and timely recharging of your A/C system can help prevent these issues, ensuring optimal cooling performance and avoiding unnecessary stress on your vehicle’s engine.
Another important aspect of A/C maintenance is addressing the buildup of bacteria and fungi. The evaporator, a key component of the A/C system, naturally collects condensation. This moist environment can become a breeding ground for harmful microorganisms, potentially causing sickness and flu-like symptoms for vehicle occupants.
Our process for addressing A/C issues is straightforward and comprehensive. When you bring your vehicle to us, our expert technicians will conduct a preliminary evaluation of your A/C system. Based on this initial assessment, we’ll provide you with an estimate for the diagnostic tests required to pinpoint the issue.
