Why Re-Gas?
Air conditioning systems lose their refrigerant gas over time, which can lead to issues like:
- Reduced cooling efficiency
- Increased energy consumption
- Aircon system failure
R134A Gas
In the UK, vehicles manufactured before 2017 use the R134A gas for their aircon systems. R134A is a Hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant widely used in the aircon industry since the 1990s. It is a non-ozone-depleting substance that has a low global warming potential, making it a more environmentally friendly alternative to the previously used R12.
How Aircon Re-Gas Works?
- The aircon system is connected to a refrigerant recovery machine to remove residual refrigerant from the system.
- Further, our technicians use vacuum pumps to remove leftover air or moisture.
- Then they connect the refrigerant recovery machine to a new tank of R134A gas and refill the system.
- The necessary refrigerant amount depends on the unit’s size and the manufacturer's recommendations.
Why Not Do It Yourself?
While the aircon re-gas process may seem straightforward, it requires specialised tools, equipment, and expertise, for the following reasons:
- A/C servicing is a potentially dangerous work as it involves hazardous chemicals
- Precausions must be taken when it comes to materials and vehicle parts (electrical parts, hot engine etc.)
- Refrigerant overcharging leads to inefficient cooling and excess compressor wear.
- Refrigerant undercharging results in inadequate cooling and excess energy consumption.
- Leaks can be identified using specialist leak detection tools.
By law only licensed professionals are allowed to perform such services.
