How air conditioning works
Your car's air conditioning is a complex system comprising several key components:
-
Refrigerant (the cooling gas)
-
Compressor
-
Condenser
-
Receiver
-
Thermal expansion valve
-
Evaporation coils
When you activate your air conditioning, the refrigerant travels through these components, transforming from gas to liquid and back again, ultimately blowing cool air into your vehicle's cabin.
Maintenance matters
Regular servicing is crucial for keeping your air conditioning system in top condition. We recommend:
-
Air conditioning service every two years
-
Weekly operation of the system for 10 minutes
-
Running the system at the coolest setting and highest fan speed

Why service your air conditioning?
Several important reasons make regular air con maintenance essential:
-
Prevent gas loss: Cars naturally lose 10-15% of refrigerant annually
-
Avoid bacterial build-up: Prevents unpleasant odours and potential allergy triggers
-
Maintain system efficiency: Keep your air conditioning working optimally
-
Catch potential issues early: Identifies leaks or developing problems
