Car AC Repair
Air conditioning is a creature comfort that most drivers tend to take for granted…until it stops working properly during the dog days of summer. You might think that popping the sunroof or rolling down the windows would provide enough comfort, but it's a far cry from the cool air pumping out of your car or truck’s AC.
Your vehicle’s air conditioning isn't something you want to be without. In this post, we'll cover some of the common signs your AC needs servicing, how often the system should be serviced, and more.
Signs Your AC Needs Servicing
First, let's cover some of the signs that your air conditioning needs servicing.
AC Blowing Hot Air
Not to be completely obvious with this one, but if your air conditioning is on and you're not getting any cool air coming from the registers, you've got a problem and need auto AC repair. Whether it's hot air or the air it's blowing is only slightly cooler than the outside temperature, it's a sign that your AC unit needs servicing.
Strange Smell Coming from Vents
Are you picking up an odd scent whenever your air conditioner is on? If this is the case, it's likely the result of built-up mold and bacteria in the AC system. Usually, a thorough cleaning can resolve this problem.
Poor Airflow
Not getting the airflow that you should get from your air conditioning system? Several reasons result in poor airflow, from a loose blower hose to a damaged seal. If your airflow isn't up to snuff, bring it in for service so the problem can be properly diagnosed and repaired.
Common Auto AC Repairs
From evacuation and recharge to checking fluid levels, replacing hoses, and repairing seals, there are many common repairs that our network of technicians often carry out on air conditioning units. Find your nearest GreatWater-affiliated shop location today to schedule an appointment to have your AC unit inspected and serviced.
How Often Should You Service Your Car's AC?
It's best practice to have your air conditioner serviced at least once a year. When you bring your vehicle into your local GreatWater-affiliated service center, you can rest assured that your vehicle's system will be thoroughly evaluated and any issues are taken care of. Preventative maintenance on your car's air conditioner can help catch small problems before they turn into big, expensive issues.
