Commerce Auto Repair Car Care Advice for Commerce Motorists: Making Your A/C System Last Longer

December 3, 2015

Commerce motorists know that if their air conditioning system isn’t making cool air like it used to, there is a problem. It may be as simple as adding more of the right kind of refrigerant.

Your A/C requires special compressor oil, which circulates through the system along with the refrigerant, to lubricate and protect pricey components and keep seals and gaskets from drying out. If refrigerant has leaked out – so has the compressor oil. This oil needs to be replenished whenever refrigerant is added.

An air conditioning analysis will uncover any potential issues and identify any needed repairs needed to get Commerce drivers on the road to cool air once again.
