Air Conditioning Recharge, Service & Repair: Letchworth Herts

Air conditioning is no different to the other mechanical devices in your vehicle. To remain efficient air con systems need servicing and repair. Most car manufacturers recommend that air conditioning is serviced every 24 months.

Often called ‘air con recharging’ or ‘air con re-gassing’, Autolube’s full air con service can be carried out on all makes and models of vehicle, and involves the following:

• In-car checks for musty odours and excessive condensation
• Drain and evacuate air con system
• Visual contamination check of oil separated during evacuation process
• Recharge air con refrigerant gas (‘air con re-gas’)
• Replace oil removed during evacuation
• Check operation & condition of air con compressor drive belt
• Visually inspect air con refrigerant pressure lines, hoses & connections for leaks or damage
• Check cooling fan operation
• Check plenum chamber drains are clear & free from obstruction

Carrying out such a thorough inspection allows us to diagnose faults quickly and efficiently, ensuring your air con system remains fully operational. It also ensures your air conditioning is both clean and hygienic, and all at the same price many car garages charge for a simple air con regas!

We can carry out your air con recharge whilst your vehicle is having an MOT test, during any car repair, or as part of your annual car service - just ask for a quote when you book your car in.

Air Conditioning Decontamination Treatment   

The bacteria in your car can be hazardous to your health! For a small extra fee Autolube can decontaminate your car air con system with our decontamination treatment.

When air conditioning isn't in use, condensation builds up on the evaporator and becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi.  When warmer weather arrives and the air conditioning is turned on, these unpleasant and unhealthy bacteria can be vented into the cabin.  You may notice there is a problem because of an unpleasant smell. However quite often you can't tell you are breathing in these harmful bacteria.

A full air con service and decontamination treatment does the following:

• Kills the mould and fungi that can affect your health and driving comfort
• Improves air quality
• Deodorises the interior of the vehicle
• Removes build up of bacteria colonies.
• Includes a complete inspection of the entire air conditioning system.
• Gives you and your family the peace of mind that you're travelling in a cleaner and healthier environment.
