A/C System Inspection
Our trained technicians inspect your system for any leaks or other issues, ensuring it is functioning properly and has no damaged or worn parts.
Your vehicle’s A/C system helps keep the cabin cool in warmer weather, allowing you to drive in comfort. However, the A/C system functions through the use of refrigerant, which can leak or deplete over time. If you ever notice your A/C is no longer blowing cool air, or seems to be weaker than normal, it’s time to visit our team of trained technicians in our Service Centre at Calgary Hyundai for an A/C Recharge & Service! Read on to learn more about our A/C Recharge & Service, including how often to get it checked (every 1 to 2 years or when no longer functioning, whichever comes first), what an A/C Recharge & Service entails (checking for leaks and other issues, evacuating the old refrigerant, recharging the system with fresh refrigerant, and checking for proper functionality), and signs to watch out for that indicate it’s time to come and see our team in Calgary to get an A/C Recharge & Service (your A/C is blowing warm air, it takes longer than normal to cool the cabin, the compressor won’t engage, and more)!

How Often Should the A/C System Be Checked?
Most A/C systems in vehicles are designed to simply continue working due to their closed loop, so unlike engine oil or other fluids that need to be checked often for degradation and level, the refrigerant in A/C systems keeps powering on. It can, though, deplete over time if there is damage to the system, causing leaks. This is why it’s suggested that A/C system checks should be done annually, if not every few years, to correct any leaks before it becomes a problem and the A/C no longer works. More often than not, though, A/C systems simply need to be recharged and serviced upon noticing that the cool air in your cabin either no longer works or is warmer than normal.
What an A/C Recharge & Service Entails
-
-
Recharge
The old refrigerant is removed from your Hyundai’s system so it can then be recharged with fresh refrigerant.
-
Function Check
With the new refrigerant added and any worn or broken pieces replaced, our trained technicians thoroughly check the entire system for functionality so that your A/C can once again blow cold, refreshing air.
