Air Conditioning Systems Repair: Inspections

Routine maintenance is the key to a longer lasting air conditioning and heating system. Both can be very expensive repairs if they fail all together, but keeping them maintained will make them last longer and cost you less money in the long run.

Cooling System

Before hitting the road for the summer, it is important to have your vehicle’s cooling system checked. Although air conditioning systems can be very reliable, they can break down. Having your vehicle checked at the beginning of the warm season can help prevent any costly repairs and ensure all of the systems components are working properly.

Here are a few warning signs that your air conditioner may need some attention:

• Unusual odors coming from the vents
• Loud noises when the AC is turned on
• The presence of water on the floor
• AC doesn’t seem as cold as it should be
• The vehicle overheats, stalls or idles roughly when the AC is on
• The defroster doesn’t work
• The blower does not turn on when the air conditioning is on
