Car Air Con Regas & Service Sunshine Coast
Get your cars airconditioning ready for summer
There are a lot of misconceptions about car air conditioning systems. Particularly how often you should need to regas your ac. Every summer on the Sunshine Coast we have people asking to have their air conditioner regassed and when we suggest a leak check they refuse.
Did you know that the air conditioning system in your car is a sealed system? So needing to regas is a clear indication there is a leak. For what ever reason people are being sold a band aid solution or regassing without a leak check.

Leak testing
Leaks within an air conditioning system can be tricky to find. The freon gas used in the system is hazardous and having your system checked for leaks should done before a regas. We use UV trace detector dye to safely find the leak fast and precisely. Once uv dye is added to the system the dye will show under illumination with a UV torch wherever there is a refrigerant leak. This precisely locates the leak resulting in extremely accurate leak detection.
Compressor regas
We offer an affordable car ac regas service for the Sunshine Coast region. There are mean seals and connection points where you system could be loosing gas and as a result over time you car may need a regas. We always recommend performing a leak check first to ensure the regas process is not immediately leaking out. If you would like to have your system serviced please contact us and we can book you in.
