Air conditioning in Calgary

Hot summer days and foggy winter windshields both need a working A/C. We find leaks before we recharge, so you are not paying twice.

Step 2 of 5
Inspection
Air conditioning is not only for summer: the A/C compressor also dries the air for the defroster, which clears a fogged windshield much faster in winter. A system that is low on refrigerant has a leak somewhere – topping it up without finding the leak wastes money.
What's included
- Vent temperature and pressure test
- Inspection of compressor, condenser and lines
- UV dye and electronic leak detection
- Refrigerant recovery and recharge by weight
- Cabin air filter check
- Performance re-test after service

FAQ

Questions about air conditioning

Anything else? Call the shop – we answer during opening hours.

+1 403-571-2886

Why is my A/C blowing warm air?

Most often low refrigerant from a leak, but it can also be a failed compressor clutch, a blend-door actuator or an electrical fault.

Why does R-1234yf cost more?

Newer vehicles use R-1234yf, which has a much lower environmental impact but costs more per kilogram than R-134a. We estimate after checking your system.

Should I run the A/C in winter?

Yes – defrost runs the compressor, keeps seals lubricated and clears fog quickly.
