Frequently Asked Questions
How do you figure out what is wrong with my car's AC?
We start by listening to your description of the problem, then we inspect visible components and use diagnostic equipment to measure pressures and temperatures. This helps us pinpoint likely causes before recommending AC repair. We review our findings with you so you understand what we see.
Will you tell me if I can choose repair instead of a full AC replacement?
Yes, we explain when a repair appears reasonable and when a larger AC replacement may make more sense. Our team outlines the pros and cons of each option, along with estimated costs, so you can decide what fits your vehicle, your comfort goals, and your budget.
How long does car AC repair usually take?
Many AC services can be completed the same day, although timing depends on what we find and parts availability. We let you know our expected timeframe after diagnosis and keep you updated. If you need to be somewhere, our shuttle service can often help you get around while we work.
What kind of warranty do you offer on AC work?
Our AC repairs and replacement services are backed by an industry-leading warranty. The specific coverage details can vary by service, and we review them with you before work begins. This warranty reflects our confidence in the quality of our workmanship and parts.
Can your team explain my AC options in plain language?
We make clear communication a priority and avoid unnecessary technical terms. Our technicians and service staff take time to explain what is happening with your AC system, what your options are, and how each choice may affect cost and performance, so you can decide comfortably.
