AC
A/C diagnostics, servicing and regassing
Air conditioning is a sealed, pressurised system, so the work starts with measuring rather than guessing. Where a system has lost refrigerant, the cause is investigated before it is recharged — regassing is done after inspection and diagnosis, as appropriate, not as a substitute for fixing a leak.
- Performance testing and vent temperature checks
- System pressure readings and electrical control checks
- Leak investigation and tracing
- Compressor, condenser, receiver drier and expansion valve assessment
- Fan, airflow and cabin filter checks
- Evacuation and refrigerant regassing to specification, following inspection
- Servicing of components found faulty during diagnosis
Worth knowing: A regas does not repair a leak. If refrigerant has escaped, the leak is found and dealt with first so you are not paying for gas twice.
