A/C Repair FAQ
How do I know if my A/C just needs a recharge or a full repair?
If your A/C was cold and gradually got weaker, you may just be low on refrigerant. If it stopped suddenly, makes noise, or cycles on and off, there may be a leak or component failure. We test first so you only pay for what you need.
Is it safe to keep driving if my A/C isn’t working?
Yes, but running the A/C when it’s low on refrigerant can overwork the compressor and lead to a more expensive repair. It’s best to check it early.
How long does an A/C recharge take?
Most recharges with no major issues take about 60–90 minutes. If we find leaks or failed parts, we’ll give you an updated timeframe.
Can you service newer refrigerants like R-1234yf?
Yes, we have equipment for both R-134a and R-1234yf systems. We’ll confirm your vehicle type and quote accordingly.
Do you work on hybrid and electric vehicle A/C systems?
Yes, we service many hybrid and EV models. These systems are more complex, so proper diagnostics are especially important.
