Recharge The AC Freon In Your Jeep Or Truck

Recharge The AC Freon In Your Jeep Or Truck

Your truck or vehicle's AC system is almost completely airtight, but your freon refrigerant is always slowly leaking out. Eventually, a vehicle will lose enough freon so that its air conditioning system will no longer cool effectively. At Brandon's Auto & Truck Sales & Service, Inc. at 530 S Dixie Hwy W we are ready to recharge your AC to help you keep your Jeep or truck's cabin temperature cool.

New advancements in R134a freon systems means that freon in newer vehicles doesn't leak out as much as old R12 freon systems. The average new model economy vehicle only leaks about 0.41 ounces of refrigerant per year. Come to Brandon's Auto & Truck Sales & Service, Inc. in Pompano Beach when it's time to recharge your AC freon.

• Vacuum out all the old refrigerant before refilling it.
• Add new R134a refrigerant.
• Pressurize your vehicle's AC system and test for mico-leaks.

Unfortunately R12 freon is no longer available. If your Jeep or truck was made before 1994 you must convert your entire AC system to the new R134a standard. This involves replacing dozens of seals and several AC auto parts. R134a is a more highly pressurized and much more efficient refrigerant pound for pound than R12. Most classic vehicle AC compressors and condensers cannot withstand the intense pressure required and choose to add about 25% less freon to accommodate older systems. This means your AC may not cool as well as it used to. Converting your R12 system to R134a is a big job so stop by Brandon's Auto & Truck Sales & Service, Inc. today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right.

Many auto repair shops resell used AC refrigerant. The old freon is cleaned using a specialized recovery machine that removes contaminants. Used freon provided by Brandon's Auto & Truck Sales & Service, Inc. works just as well as new freon after it's cleaned. Accepting used freon is a great way to help minimize the impact freon has on the environment.

Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your vehicle's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Pompano Beach are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the vehicle's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 954-781-4400 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your vehicle's AC. Stop by our store at 530 S Dixie Hwy W and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your vehicle.
