Air-con Braintree
Car air-con regas in Braintree.
Air-conditioning recovery, vacuum testing and recharge for R134a and R1234yf systems at our Braintree service point near the A120.
Restore cool air properly.
A regas is more than adding refrigerant. The system is recovered, held under vacuum and recharged with the correct type and specified quantity.
Recover and vacuum
Existing refrigerant is recovered and the system is held under vacuum as part of the process.
Recharge and test
The system is recharged to the specified amount and cooling performance is checked.
Braintree workshop
Both common refrigerant types.
Many older vehicles use R134a and many newer vehicles use R1234yf. We check the vehicle information rather than guessing.
If the air-con does not stay cold after a correct recharge, there may be a leak or an electrical or mechanical fault that needs further investigation.
Further vehicle diagnostics are provided at our Great Bentley workshop when required.
Air-con questions
Before you book.
Which air-con gas does my car use?
The vehicle information or under-bonnet label normally identifies R134a or R1234yf. We confirm it before charging.
Will a regas fix every air-con problem?
No. Poor cooling can also be caused by leaks, sensors, electrical issues or compressor faults. A regas only solves a low-charge problem when the rest of the system is working correctly.
Is air-con available at Braintree?
Yes. Air-con service for both common refrigerant types is available at the Braintree location.
