Extend the Life of your Air Conditioning System with an A/C Recharge

Extend the Life of your Air Conditioning System with an A/C Recharge

If you’ve ever spent a summer in Florida, you know that our summers can get H-O-T. But a little cool breeze from your air conditioning can make a big difference.

Regular preventive maintenance keeps your vehicle’s air conditioning system operating at its peak. That way, you won’t have to worry if your A/C will keep up!

How A/C Works
Your air conditioner helps remove heat and humidity from inside your passenger compartment. Powered by a belt, the air conditioning compressor compresses the refrigerant to pressurize it and pump it through the system. The refrigerant is pushed through a valve where pressure and temperature are reduced. The now-cool refrigerant travels through the evaporator in the passenger compartment. As a result, cool air is blown into your vehicle. This refrigerant returns to the compressor, where the cycle begins once again.

What is an A/C Recharge?
An A/C Recharge can improve your cooling efficiency resulting in a more comfortable cabin temperature. It also helps preserve the life of your air conditioning system. Our technicians are specially certified through an EPA approved training program to perform this service.

First, a certified technician will check for signs of leaks. Next, one of our technicians will:

  • Visually inspect the A/C compressor drive belt for cracks or damage
  • Inspect interior A/C cabin filter
  • Visually inspect accessible components for leaks or damage
  • Check the operation of the A/C compressor and other A/C components
  • Evacuate refrigerant from the system
  • Vacuum test the system
  • Recharge the A/C system using the appropriate refrigerant to the system capacity according to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications
