When a regas isn't the answer

If your A/C is empty, leaking, noisy or not working at all, adding refrigerant usually won't fix it. We test before we recommend anything.

Tests used where appropriate

  • Refrigerant recovery and measurement
  • Vacuum testing
  • Oxygen-free nitrogen pressure testing
  • Electronic leak detection
  • UV dye inspection
  • System-pressure analysis
  • Compressor and cooling-fan checks
  • Electrical checks
  • OBD fault-code scanning
  • Vent-temperature measurement

Thermal performance checks

Thermal imaging helps us verify vent temperature and cooling performance during testing.

Pricing

If your system passes and the service is completed, you pay the normal service price. If we find a leak or fault and the service can't safely go ahead, a £60 diagnostic fee covers the testing and technician's time. Parts, refrigerant and repairs are quoted separately.
