Air conditioning is not just for hot summer days but a necessary device for demisting windows during the winter months. Therefore it is vital that your car’s air conditioning unit is working all year round. At Highview Garage Finchley, London, we recommend having your car air conditioning system serviced with gas and lubricant every two years to keep it running efficiently.
Air conditioning checks are not part of your car’s annual service so it’s up to you to have it checked. Any car over two years old will almost definitely benefit from a re-gas. The reason for this is air conditioning units are prone to accumulating dust that contains bacteria and dirt. This natural build-up will eventually impact the car’s air conditioning system‘s effectiveness. At Highview Garage we can run an air conditioning anti-bacterial clean that will restore the filters and clear the vents.
What should I look out for?
• Temperature dropping
• Unusual smell coming from your system
• A loss of cooling efficiency
• Your engine working harder – using up more fuel
• Blowing cold air
• Musty smell coming from your car’s air conditioning
More commonly, the blowing of cold air is the first sign your car is due an air conditioning re-gas. A musty smell after long periods the air conditioning sitting idle can mean the need for an anti-bacterial clean. Our qualified technicians check the air conditioning lubricant and refrigerant levels in line with the manufacturer’s recommendations to put it back to it’s fresh and clean state, as it was when it was new.
