Air Conditioning Service Options The chances are that when your car arrives at our workshop for an air conditioning service it will simply be because it is not working, and the main reason that it will not be working is because it is low on, or out of refrigerant gas. So we will always start along the process by carrying out a re-gas procedure, and because we recognise that you have no desire to give us 'a blank cheque' we give you two alternatives. 1. Evacuation and Re-charge A basic no frills service where we :
All at a cost of just £49.95 including vat, with the added sweetner that if a leak is found or the system fails to work at the end of the process we will remove the gas and charge a reduced fee of just £39.95 You can elect to have leak trace dye added and this will cost you £10.00 including vat when done at the same time as the above. Finally, remember this is a very basic service and should not be confused with our much more comprehensive Full Air Conditioning Service that incorporates Industry Best Practice to ensure the best result. 2. The Full Air Conditioning Service covers:
At £115.00 including vat this comprehensive service represents superb value for money especially as we offer you two safeguards:
A note of caution. We cannot over stress that the procedures above are services and not repairs, so although the work that we carry out is fully guaranteed, there is no implication that once we have carried out this work that the rest of the air conditioning system will then be in good condition and work without fault.
Add on Extras and Stand Alone Tests. Ultra Violet Leak Location. Charged on a time taken basis. But on average the process rarely takes longer than 45 minutes to complete. (Allow £44.00 inc vat). However if you book your vehicle in for repairs to be carried out this amount will be deducted from your final invoice. (Remember leak trace dye must have been introduced during the re-gas process.) Replacing Pollen Filter Often forgotten during routine vehicle servicing this filter removes pollution from the air you breath, and helps to prevent allergic reactions bought on by pollen etc. This is a relatively inexpensive job especially when done as part of an air con service. Average cost including parts, labour and vat is about £30.00 Antifungal/Antibacterial Treatment. This is already included within our standard air con service but is frequently requested on it's own as customers realise just how nasty the collection of moulds and bacterium can be that build up over time on the evaporator leading to allergic reactions and some pretty unpleasant smells. Replace Receiver/Dryer. The reasons for doing this are explained elsewhere but manufacturers will normally suggest that this component is changed every couple of years. Costs vary considerably depending on where it is located and the price of the part, however when changed during the re-gas process one hundred pounds will normally cover everything. Air Con Sealant.- The Last Resort. We do not recommend that you have sealant fitted into your air conditioning system because it will react within any moisture and form a sludge that could block valves and cause damage to the compressor. Once fitted it will mean that any refrigerant later recovered will have to be disposed of and the entire system fully flushed prior to repairing. It is only suitable for stopping very minor leaks that leech out over a period in excess of a month, and even this cannot be guaranteed. That being said we recognise that on occasions it will be the most viable option available especially where replacement of components would be extremely expensive on an older vehicle. Because of this we reluctantly offer it as an option. Leak sealant treatment costs £48.00 plus vat, per vehicle. It must be added after pulling an extensive vacuum and before refrigerant gas is added There is no guarantee that it will work, and you must fully understand that even if a leak is rectified other problems may occur in due course. You have been warned!
And of course repairs, all types, all parts, most vehicles. We have been repairing car air conditioning systems since 1992 so we know what we are doing!
