AC Recharge
Two refrigerants. Most vehicles built before 2017 take R-134a. Most 2017 and newer take R-1234yf. Both are on summer special right now — pick yours below.
Not sure which refrigerant your vehicle takes? We'll confirm it when you book — no guesswork on your end.
Why a Proper AC Recharge Matters
AC refrigerant slowly escapes through seals and fittings over the years. When the charge drops, your AC stops cooling — and the compressor (the most expensive component in the system) starts working harder against low pressure, which shortens its life. A proper recharge restores cooling and protects the compressor. It's much cheaper to recharge at the first sign of weak cooling than to replace a burned-out compressor later.
What We Do — Every Recharge
We connect our AC service machine to your vehicle, recover any remaining refrigerant, and pull a deep vacuum to confirm the system is sealed. We then refill with the correct refrigerant — R-134a or R-1234yf — to the exact amount your manufacturer specifies. Before you drive away, we verify cooling with vent-temperature readings. If the system loses charge again quickly, that points to a leak — and that's what our AC Leak Detection service is for.
Signs You Need an AC Recharge
- AC blows warm or only mildly cool air
- Cooling is weak when idling but improves at highway speeds (or vice versa)
- You can hear the AC compressor short-cycling on and off
- Defroster is slow to clear the windshield (the AC removes humidity)
- It's been several years since your last AC service
