Maintaining Your Air Conditioning System
At Lug Nutz Truck and Auto Repair we know that summer's arrival means your vehicle's air conditioning system is going to be under a serious strain. If you haven't had your system serviced in a while, now's the time. While most newer vehicles may simply be able to get away with having their A/C recharged, older cars and trucks may require a little extra attention.
If you think your A/C isn't as frosty as it used to be, but it's still blowing cold, the system just may need to be recharged. While manufacturers used to use a type of refrigerant known as R-12, or Freon, researchers have found it is a leading cause of ozone depletion. As such, it's illegal to use Freon in your car today. Since as late as 1994, manufacturers have used R-134a to keep things cold in the cabin. We have the proper refrigerant for any car or truck.
For those "do it yourselfers", you can technically recharge your vehicle's refrigerant yourself, but its best left to a Lug Nutz Certified Auto Repair Technician. All refrigerants have a tendency to displace oxygen, which means if you accidentally evacuate the system, the stuff could literally push the air out of your lungs. Not fun.
