Air Conditioning
Most modern cars have air conditioning (climate control systems) fitted as standard.
Most people are familiar with air-con usage, but not everyone realises that the system needs regular attention to ensure it's working efficiently.
A proportion of the air-con gas escapes from the system every year thus reducing its efficiency. Manufacturers recommend that your air-con system is recharged with gas and lubricant every two years.
This service is not part of routine vehicle servicing so many vehicles are operating with inefficient systems. As the air-con system is driven by a compressor which, is in turn, driven by the engine, an inefficient system will have to work harder and therefore use more costly fuel.
Air-con systems are not only for hot days, they are also vital for demisting your windscreen on colder days too.
Best Autocentres offer a complete air-conditioning recharge service and can, if required, include a system debug to clear bacterial build up, which will remove any unpleasant odours.
