Why is Car Air Conditioning Service Important?

Just like any other system in your car, your air conditioning needs regular servicing to ensure it's working efficiently. Here's why:

• Prevent Leaks: Regular servicing helps identify and fix leaks, preventing costly repairs down the line.
• Maintain Coolant Levels: We'll top up your coolant to ensure optimal cooling performance.
• Avoid Bacteria Build-up: Servicing helps prevent bacteria growth that can cause unpleasant odours.
• Extend System Life: Proper maintenance can help your air conditioning system last longer.

What We Do:

Our comprehensive air conditioning service includes:

• Leak checks
• Coolant top-ups
• Pressure checks
• System cleaning
• And more!

Air conditioning systems consist of six main items:

• Condenser
• Receiver
• Dryer
• Compressor
• Evaporator
• Air conditioning lines/Expansion valve

The air conditioning lines condense cold air (works like a radiator), act as a filter, pump liquid gas through the system, create cold air intake through air vents and transport gas to each system.

The compressor is the heart of an air conditioning system. It takes refrigerant as a low-pressure gas, pumps it up to a high-pressure gas, and circulates it into the discharge hose. Compressors are much like little engines. Most have pistons, piston rings, a crankshaft, and bearings, just like a car engine.

That is why running an air conditioner without any refrigerant is like running your car's engine without any oil.

An efficient Air Conditioning System provides:-

• Efficient cool air in summer!
• Warm dehumidified air in winter, so you can easily demist steamed-up windows!
• Filters pollutants / airborne particles including pollen helping allergy sufferers!
• Pleasant and odour-free vehicle atmosphere at all times.
