Air Conditioning Freon Recharge

While the concept of changing your engine oil is easy to understand, the Freon contained within your air conditioning system is sealed. As a result, having to add Freon typically means that a small leak has occurred somewhere within the system. Components like the A/C hoses, expansion tube, compressor, evaporator, or condenser are examples of where a small crack or leak can be found. Freon is a type of refrigerant that keeps the circulating air cool. Usually a simple and straightforward procedure, topping off Freon is an effective solution to restore A/C performance.

Air Conditioning Compressor Repair and Replacement

Essential for smooth operation, the air conditioner compressor’s primary function is to pressurize the refrigerant necessary to cool the air. Additionally, it’s also tasked with controlling temperature changes, regulating air output, and channeling air into the A/C condenser. Our team is standing by to repair or replace the unit if necessary.

Air Conditioning Condenser Repair and Replacement

Once compressed, the A/C refrigerant is then converted into a chilled liquid that’s circulated across the entire system. The component responsible for this task is the A/C compressor, typically found near the radiator of your vehicle. A/C condensers may start to suffer from reduced performance or fail completely over time and require replacement.

Air Conditioning Evaporator Repair and Replacement

Hitting the front windshield defog button is how you activate the evaporator, another A/C-related component that helps to remove condensation from the interior of your windshield for clear visibility. It’s also needed to cool and dehumidify the air inside the cabin. Any unpleasant odors or cloudy windshields are potential signs of an evaporator-related A/C issue.
