Car Air Conditioning Repairs & Service
Why Service Your Car’s Air Conditioning System?
Even if your car’s air conditioning system seems to be working fine, regular servicing is essential for preventative maintenance. Over time, corrosive acids are produced during the operation of the air conditioning system. The receiver dryer, a key component, collects these acids and moisture. Acting like a filter, it removes moisture from the system.
However, as contaminants build up in the receiver dryer, its efficiency decreases. This allows corrosive acids to damage other components of the air conditioning system, such as the condenser, compressor, and evaporator. Since this corrosion occurs on internal surfaces, it’s difficult to predict which part will fail next.
To prevent this, it’s recommended to service your car’s air conditioning system every two years. Regular maintenance stops uncontrolled corrosion, extending the life of critical components and saving you from costly repairs.
HANDY TIP: Run your car’s air conditioner for a few minutes every week, even during winter. This helps lubricate the seals in the compressor, prolonging its life.
Car Air Conditioning Service at Punjab Automotive Garage
At Punjab Automotive Garage, our licensed air conditioning technicians provide expert service in compliance with strict environmental regulations. During the service, we inspect the air conditioning drive belt and idler tension pulley for any signs of cracks or damage. The temperature of the air emitted from the dash vents is measured with a thermometer, and all components are visually checked for gas leaks. We also ensure the compressor and other parts are functioning properly before starting the service.
The system is then tested for leaks, and the refrigerant is completely evacuated. If needed, we replace the receiver dryer and the TX valve with approved, high-quality parts. Afterward, the system is recharged with the appropriate refrigerant, precisely measured to meet the system’s specifications.
Once the service is complete, we perform final checks to ensure that the air conditioning system operates efficiently, delivering cool and fresh air for your comfort while driving.
Why Is This Important?
The refrigerant used in air conditioning systems can harm the environment if released into the atmosphere, as it contributes to ozone depletion. Regular servicing ensures the system is environmentally safe while maintaining its performance.
