A/C diagnosis
Pressure and temperature readings, a visual check of every component and a look at the controls to pinpoint why the air is not cold.
Air conditioning and heating
Cool in summer, warm in winter, and no guessing in between
A weak A/C is usually a leak, a failing part or a blocked airflow path, and topping up the refrigerant alone rarely solves it. We test the whole system, show you what we find and fix the actual cause.
Our A/C performance check starts at $99 (demo price).
Warning signs
Signs your climate system needs attention
Climate parts wear quietly, and a small fix in spring can save a larger one in July.
- Air from the vents is warm, or only cool while driving
- A clicking compressor, rattle or squeal when the A/C starts
- Weak airflow even with the fan on high
- A musty or sweet smell from the vents
- Foggy windows that will not clear, or heat that never gets hot
How an A/C visit works
A clear path from warm air to cold
We keep the process the same on every car, so you always know what is happening.
Test and inspect
We measure vent temperature and system pressures, then check the compressor, belt, fans and lines.
Find the leak
If refrigerant is low, we locate where it is escaping before we add any.
Approve the plan
You get photos and a written estimate. We only start after you say yes.
Repair and recharge
We fix the fault, vacuum the system, refill to spec and confirm cold air before you leave.
Which refrigerant does my car use?
Most vehicles built before about 2015 use R-134a, and many newer models use R-1234yf. The two are not interchangeable, so we confirm the type on the under-hood label before we service the system.
Why does my A/C blow cool but not cold?
Common causes are low refrigerant from a leak, a weak compressor, a clogged condenser or a failed cooling fan. A performance check tells us which one, and starts at $99 (demo price).
Do you also fix heaters?
Yes. Heating and defrost problems are handled in the same visit, whether it is a stuck thermostat, a clogged heater core or a failed blend door actuator.
