It's been a very cold and wet winter here in the Bay Area, but it's already starting to warm up. You may have been using your heater and defrosters a lot, but now it's time to depend on your air conditioner. This change of seasons is also a good time to tune up your car's A/C system and make sure it's performing the way it should.
Bring your vehicle into San Francisco Automotive Solutions to test the performance of your air conditioner and make repairs or adjustments as needed. We'll get your A/C working great and keeping you cool throughout the summer months. We'll also fine tune the heating system so it works properly whenever you need it on cool San Francisco nights and foggy mornings.
Here are some air conditioning services we can provide:
Cabin Air Filter
You definitely want to get your vehicle's cabin air filter checked periodically. If it is dirty and clogged up, it will restrict air flow and also reduce the quality of the air you breathe inside the car. If you notice funky smells any time you turn on your heater or A/C, that's a good sign the cabin air filter needs to be replaced.
Vent Cleaning
The vents can also build up with dust, grease, grime, bacteria, debris and even mold because of the moisture around here. This will impact the performance of the air conditioner and also affect the quality of air. San Francisco Automotive Solutions can inspect and clean the vent system.
Thermostat
The newer the vehicle, the more advanced the air conditioning system will be in terms of the thermostat and computer settings. No matter how old or new your vehicle, you want it to provide cold air or warm air on demand. We'll test the thermostat and make any adjustments necessary to ensure the system is dialed into the correct temperature readings.
A/C Recharge
Depending on the type of car, there are different types of refrigerant that may be used to cool the air that passes through the air conditioning system. If your A/C isn't blowing as cold as it should, then it may need a refrigerant recharge.
