But it’s a complex and expensive system that we should think about before it fails. |
Air Conditioning Service, Repair and Replacement
The refrigerant in the air conditioner contains a special oil that lubricates and cools the A/C Compressor, Condenser and other parts. When enough refrigerant leaks out, your air conditioner may still make cold air, but the parts don’t have enough oil to protect them and they wear out faster than they should; so it’s important to service the air conditioner as recommended by the factory trained experts.
Replacing old refrigerant has another benefit: refrigerant tends to gather moisture and become corrosive. That causes leaks in the system which can be expensive to repair. Fresh refrigerant protects the air conditioning components and keeps the system operating at peak efficiency so it doesn’t have to work as hard to keep you cool.
Even with regular service A/C parts can just wear out. Normal wear and tear eventually gets to all moving parts.
Addressing early problems can save on more extensive repairs down the road. For instance, a common failure is the clutch that turns the compressor on and off. If you can take care of a bad A/C clutch when it first starts having problems, you may be able to save the compressor. Wait too long and you’ll have to replace both.
Check your owner’s manual or ask your service advisor for service recommendations. And if you’re hearing strange sounds when your air conditioning turns on, or if it just isn’t as cold as it used to be, have us give it the once over and see what it’ll take to keep you cool.
Heater Service, repair, replacement in Bedford
Heaters are one of the more forgotten systems in your vehicle in Bedford. You never use your heater until you actually need it; and if it’s broken now you’re driving around in the cold. Parts like a heater core, thermostat, heater control valve and hoses are all parts that can become damaged when a vehicle’s cooling system is not properly maintained. Because the heater core is the furthest part away from the radiator and water pump it can also be where additional contaminants and old antifreeze can congeal and damage the heater core. It is important to have your coolant and heating system properly maintained to keep from expensive repairs such as replacing a heater core. If any parts within the heater system should need to be replaced, trust our factory trained experts to provide high-quality service and premium Napa parts to provide you with peace of mind driving with an outstanding warranty.
