Recharge The AC Freon In Your Car Or Truck


Your truck or car's AC system is almost completely airtight, but your freon refrigerant is always slowly leaking out. Eventually, a car will lose enough freon so that its air conditioning system will no longer cool effectively. At A & B Automotive Inc. at 475 Stallings Rd we are ready to recharge your AC to help you keep your car or truck's cabin temperature cool.

"Help My AC Only Blows Warm Air!"

New advancements in R134a freon systems means that freon in newer cars doesn't leak out as much as old R12 freon systems. The average new model economy car only leaks about 0.41 ounces of refrigerant per year. Come to A & B Automotive Inc. in Matthews when it's time to recharge your AC freon.

A & B Automotive Inc.'s Fast 3 Step Process:
  • Vacuum out all the old refrigerant before refilling it.
  • Add new R134a refrigerant.
  • Pressurize your car's AC system and test for mico-leaks.
"Does A & B Automotive Inc. Have R12 Freon For My Classic Car?"

Unfortunately R12 freon is no longer available. If your car or truck was made before 1994 you must convert your entire AC system to the new R134a standard. This involves replacing dozens of seals and several AC auto parts. R134a is a more highly pressurized and much more efficient refrigerant pound for pound than R12. Most classic car AC compressors and condensers cannot withstand the intense pressure required and choose to add about 25% less freon to accommodate older systems. This means your AC may not cool as well as it used to. Converting your R12 system to R134a is a big job so stop by A & B Automotive Inc. today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right. Visit us today at 475 Stallings Rd.

"Is Used Freon Ok?"

Many auto repair shops resell used AC refrigerant. The old freon is cleaned using a specialized recovery machine that removes contaminants. Used freon provided by A & B Automotive Inc. works just as well as new freon after it's cleaned. Accepting used freon is a great way to help minimize the impact freon has on the environment.

Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your car's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Matthews are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the car's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 704-821-8045 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 475 Stallings Rd and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

Reviews

My husband and I are new to the Matthews area and found A&B while looking for a place to get our cars inspected. The people who work here are so kind and helpful, the prices are fair, and neither of us has ever had a bad experience. We take our cars here for everything, including a recent tire plug which they did for free. Don't hesitate to go here for honest, hard-working service and friendly staff!

I have used this shop for over 20 years. Honesty and craftsmanship have always been their standard. Fix only what is broken at a reasonable price. I recently had to take my sons car to the dealer. The dealer reminded me why I don't take my cars to the dealer after the free oil changes run out. not a good experience. I prefer to do business with a small business that gives value for money.
