For those who want to be cool and comfortable in their automobiles this summer, now is the perfect time to schedule an air conditioning service with Demore’s Automotive. If you haven’t had your car, truck, crossover, or SUV’s air conditioner serviced or inspected in a year or more, it’s a good idea to let us take a look at it to make sure that everything is working properly and that the system is not leaking refrigerant. Let’s talk more about this below by listing the various parts of your vehicle’s air conditioning system and what can go wrong.
Compressor
The compressor is the air conditioning system part that circulates the cold refrigerant through the system so the air that blows through the vents is cooled down. This part can go bad simply because it isn’t used enough. In Palmer, Massachusetts, we don’t use our air conditioners that much because it doesn’t get that hot. This can set you up for compressor failure this summer.
Condenser
The condenser is responsible for cooling the air. It is located right in front of your vehicle’s engine, which means that it deals with a lot of road debris every time you drive your automobile. The debris can clog the condenser and it can also dent it or even punch a hole in it. You’ll end up with hot air blowing through the vents this summer if the condenser is clogged or broken.
Fans
We will also inspect the system fans to make sure they are clean and working as they should be. Without fans, you won’t have any cold air blowing into the passenger cabin, and this can leave you miserable on a hot and humid afternoon. Along with checking the fans, we will also check the electrical system to make sure that you don’t have any electrical issues in your vehicle’s air conditioner.
Refrigerant
Finally, without enough refrigerant, you will end up with warm or hot air blowing through the vents. If it’s been a couple of years since you’ve had an air conditioning inspection, your refrigerant levels are likely lower than normal. This happens because the refrigerant evaporates slowly over the years. It can also happen if a refrigerant leak has developed around the air conditioning hose connectors, which is commonplace where refrigerant leaks.
