Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my car’s air conditioning not blowing cold air?
If your car’s aircon is no longer cooling properly, it could be due to low refrigerant levels, a gas leak, a blocked condenser, a faulty compressor, or electrical issues like a blown fuse or sensor fault. Over time, small leaks in seals and hoses can cause refrigerant to escape, reducing cooling efficiency. A professional inspection can identify the root cause and determine whether a simple regas or more extensive repair is needed.
How often should a car air conditioning system be serviced?
Most manufacturers recommend servicing your vehicle’s air conditioning system every 1 to 2 years. This includes checking refrigerant levels, inspecting hoses and seals for leaks, cleaning the system, and ensuring the compressor and fans are functioning correctly. Regular servicing helps maintain cooling performance, prevents bad odours, and reduces the risk of costly repairs due to long-term wear or moisture damage in the system.
What’s involved in an aircon regas service?
An aircon regas involves removing old refrigerant gas, checking for leaks, and recharging the system with fresh refrigerant to the correct pressure. Technicians may also replace the cabin filter, inspect key components, and test overall cooling performance. Regassing restores the system’s ability to cool effectively and is often required when refrigerant levels drop due to natural loss or minor leaks over time.
