If you feel that your car doesn't feel as cold as it used too, or if it hasn't been serviced within the last two years then your car Air Conditioning may need servicing. The air conditioning system in your vehicle is not covered by any manufacturer's service schedules and the refrigerant gas that is used to operate the system depletes over time. On average most cars lose up to 15% per annum, even more if a leak exists resulting in gradual deterioration in system performance until finally on a stinking hot day the system will not function at all.
All car air conditioners use refrigerant, which is now a controlled substance. By law, if a leak exists, all faulty parts must be repaired or replaced before it is refilled with refrigerant. An automotive licensed technician is the best person to service or repair you car air conditioning. They have the right qualifications and are licensed to identify the cause of the leak and repair it to minimise the risk of future leaks. That's why the Australian Refrigeration Council (ARC) issues National Authorisations and Licences to businesses and individuals that they must hold to purchase and use refrigerant. By doing this, the use of refrigerant is limited to those who have proven their skill, knowledge and safety when dealing with these substances. So take care of our future and use an Authorised Refrigerant Trader, like Mansfield Motors.
