Common Automotive AC Repair Services

1234YF Vehicle AC Refrigerant
Our facility is equipped to handle the latest 1234YF freon recharge for your car, truck, or jeep. This refrigerant, mandatory in all vehicle AC systems manufactured after 2021, offers an environmentally friendly way to keep your vehicle's cabin cool.

Recharging Your Car's AC
If your vehicle's AC begins to lose its cooling efficiency, consider a freon recharge. This quick and cost-effective solution restores cool air, providing relief from the heat. Be aware that if there's a freon leak, it could be due to a damaged hose or seal, which might require more extensive repairs.

Repair Your Car's AC Compressor
The AC compressor is central to cooling your vehicle, performing several critical functions: it pressurizes the refrigerant to cool the air, regulates the temperature output, detects temperature changes, and channels air to the AC condenser.

Repair Your Car's AC Condenser
Located at the front of your vehicle, near the radiator, the AC condenser is crucial for cooling the refrigerant after compression. This component helps maintain a comfortable cabin temperature by converting the refrigerant into a cooled liquid that moves to the receiver/dryer or accumulator.

Repair Your Car's AC Evaporator
Situated just behind the dashboard, the evaporator is key to your car's air conditioning system. It cools and dehumidifies the air before it flows through the cabin, ensuring a comfortable environment inside your vehicle during the warmer months.

Replace Your Car's AC Thermal Expansion Valve or Orifice Tube
The Thermal Expansion Valve or Orifice Tube is essential for regulating your AC system's pressure and temperature, controlling the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator. Proper balance prevents moisture build-up, crucial for maintaining your vehicle's AC efficiency.

Freon Recharging FAQs

How often should Freon be changed?

Freon in your car's AC system doesn't need regular replacement like engine oil because the system is sealed. However, over time, as your vehicle ages, small cracks might develop in components like the compressor, condenser, or hoses, leading to Freon leakage. In such cases, the damaged parts should be replaced, and the Freon should be recharged.

How long should a Freon recharge last?

A properly repaired and recharged car AC system shouldn't need new Freon unless there's a leak. Unlike fuel, Freon doesn't deplete with use but can escape through leaks. If you find the Freon level dropping after a repair, it's crucial to check for and repair any leaks.

How many cans of Freon does a car take?

The amount of Freon required varies by vehicle. Typically, a car needs between 28-32 ounces of Freon, which equates to about 2-3 standard 12oz cans. However, larger vehicles or those with rear AC systems may need more. Always refer to your vehicle's manual to ensure the correct amount and prevent overfilling.

Can I leave my car running when adding Freon?

Yes, your car's engine should be running when you recharge the AC system. The AC compressor operates by using the engine which circulates the refrigerant and is essential for a successful recharge.

Why is my car blowing hot air after adding Freon?

If your car is still blowing hot air after adding Freon, it likely indicates a leak which causes a drop in system pressure and inefficacy in cooling. Before adding more Freon, it's advisable to thoroughly check for leaks and repair any found to ensure the system can maintain proper pressure and function effectively.
