Automotive A/C systems are sealed and should never “use up” refrigerant. If it’s low, it’s leaking — even a pinhole can vent refrigerant and oil over time. Our team performs pressure testing, dye tracing, and electronic leak detection to locate the problem precisely.

We inspect compressors, condensers, evaporators, hoses, and service ports for leaks that may be invisible without specialized tools. Fixing the source now prevents damage to expensive components later.

Once the leak source is identified and repaired, we recover and recharge the system using the exact refrigerant type and weight specified by your manufacturer — whether R-134a or R-1234yf.

We don’t “top off” by pressure alone. Instead, we evacuate the system, remove air and moisture, and charge it by weight for factory-correct performance. The result: colder air, longer component life, and guaranteed accuracy.

Our goal isn’t just to make it cold again — it’s to make it last. We verify system pressures, cooling fan operation, and control function after every recharge. We also check for signs of contamination or moisture, which can damage compressors and valves over time.

We’ll explain what caused the leak, show you what was repaired, and document everything in your Complete Vehicle Health Report so you know your system is sealed and sound.
