Keep cool in the summer & demisted in
the winter
with a fully working air con system. Most of today's cars come
equipped as standard with air con. Unfortunately up to 15% of
the systems gas can be lost each year. As the gas reduces so does
the efficiency of the air con system.
To keep your air con system working correctly most car
manufacturers recommend that you have your system serviced every
2 years. Servicing not only replaces the lost gas , it also
removes any harmful moisture from the system , and tops up the
systems oil.
From 2016 , cars are equipped with a new, more environmently
friendly type of gas in the aircon system , R1234yf .
Unfortunately this gas is 5 times more expensive than the old
R134a gas , and requires new equipment to service the aircon
system. Auto-tech can now service these new systems.
Tip: Use your air
con system in the winter at least once a week. Switch on the
air con with your heater, it will help remove moisture from the
air inside your car - so stop your windows misting up. If you do
not use your air con for a long period, the seals in the system
will dry, accelerating the gas loss.
We can also repair any air conditioning
faults, diagnose climate control faults, supply & fit any
replacement parts required.
