Did you just turn on the air conditioning unit and it blew out hot air? Maybe the air is not as cool as last year when it blew out an arctic wind? If you have noticed any performance decline for your air conditioner, low refrigerant is likely the culprit. We can inspect the A/C and check its performance and recharge the refrigerant if it is found low. Our A/C recharge service at DuPage Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram features a factory-trained technician and computerized refrigerant recharge machine guaranteed to get the job done right.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, we invite you to get an A/C performance check and corrective recharge service as needed at DuPage Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Glendale Heights, IL:
An A/C performance check can assess poor performance as we have a factory-trained technician turn on the air conditioner to full blast. The air blowing from the vents is tested and compared to the temperature of ambient air using a factory performance chart. If the air is not being cooled sufficiently to specifications, we then check the refrigerant level and see if you need an A/C recharge service to restore peak performance at factory specifications.
Finding the refrigerant low is the beginning of the search for how it leaked. We will inspect the air conditioning system to find any damaged components allowing leaks. If the problem is observed, we can repair the damaged component. However, if we cannot visually determine with the naked eye where the leak was sprung, the system will be pressurized with die-laced refrigerant. If the refrigerant leaks again, we can find the problem with a specialized light that exposes the leaked die. Repairs will then be made as needed before pressurizing the system with refrigerant to specifications.
Years ago it was commonplace to purchase aftermarket quick recharge kits that allowed the average owner to recharge the refrigerant. Rest assured that this is not recommended for today’s vehicles with higher technologies and service demands. With the compressor being one of the costliest repairs, you will want the highest quality service by a factory-trained technician that knows your vehicle’s air conditioning system professionally and can operate the computerized A/C recharge machine.
