What auto a/c and heating system does: Auto heating and A/C systems function to keep your car cabin warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The auto A/C system additionally offers a double function of working your defrost in the winter. Heating systems are comprised of a heater core which acts like a little radiator behind the dash, fan, and hoses which draw the heat from the engine to the core. Auto A/C systems operate similarly, by delivering coolant to the fan to blow cold air in the cabin.

Why Auto A/C & Heating System Repair service is important: Heating and A/C systems can wear out over time with use. Hoses can easily stop-up and leak if not serviced, leading to poor efficiency or a lack of cooling and heating completely. Correct routine maintenance can keep your automobile comfortable for you and your passengers.

The best ways to tell if your heating and A/C are having problems:

• If your A/C blows just a little cooler than the air outside
• Air that blows in smells moist, musty, or like mildew
• Your cabin does not heat up in cold weather, or is just somewhat warmer than outdoors
• The defroster takes longer than normal to function, blows in filthy air, or doesn't operate
• Your heater or A/C only operates when driving, not when idling, or stops blowing when the vehicle is still
• Your heating unit blows chilly air, or the air conditioning blows warm
• At the highest setting, your vents do not put out much air

An in-depth inspection of heating and a/c systems includes:

• Checking the interior and blower
• Checking radiator coolant level, hoses, pressure cap and thermostat
• Screening the compressor belt
• Examining for cracks or additional damages.
• A cooling system pressure examination
• Contrasting the air conditioning pressure to producer specifications
• Examining the air conditioning system for refrigerant leaks
• Check the interior vent air temperature
