There are several tell-tale signs that your car’s air conditioning system might be in need of repair or service. This includes:
Warm air after you have your air conditioning re-gassed.
Weak or inconsistent air flow.
Unusual noises such as grinding, hissing or rattling coming from the air con unit.
A bad smell is coming through the air conditioning vents.

An air conditioning re-gas (or recharge) is the process of removing the old refrigerant gas from your air conditioning system and replacing it with new refrigerant gas. This helps your car’s air conditioning blow cold air again, keeping you cool through the warmer months. An air con re-gas should take around 1 hour to complete at a reputable independent garage. Book your air conditioning re-gas today through Approved Garages.
If your car’s air conditioning has started blowing warm air even when set to the lowest setting or the AC system seems less effective than it was before, there’s a good chance it needs regassing. Typically, most cars need regassing every one or two years, so if you’ve not had your air conditioning regassed in the last few years, it’s recommended to have it done for optimal cooling performance.
There are two primary types of refrigerant gas that are used to re-gas car air conditioning systems: R134A and R1234YF. R134A is commonly used in older vehicles, from the 1990s to the late 2010s. R1234YF is more environmentally friendly and is used in more recent vehicles, starting from around 2017. If you’re unsure which type of gas your car uses, a mechanic will be able to identify the type and ensure the correct gas type is used in your car. Find a professional local garage for your air conditioning re-gas using Approved Garages.
It’s recommended to have your car’s air conditioning serviced every two years to ensure it’s working as it should. This makes sure that any potential problems are addressed before they become more serious and helps to increase the efficiency of your car’s AC system. In addition to air conditioning servicing, many of the BOLTON garages in the Approved Garages network offer comprehensive annual servicing for the rest of your vehicle, as well as car repairs and MOTs.
