If you are planning a late spring or
summer road trip, then you should
schedule an auto air conditioning
diagnostic to coincide with your
travel plans. Don’t leave St Louis
without making an appointment with
our well-established A/C maintenance and
repair services. Don’t let a broken down
air conditioner mess with your rest and

to check the status of your vehicle’s air
conditioner? Plan ahead. Routine auto air
conditioning maintenance will keep your
car or truck’s air conditioning running at
maximum efficiency.
Your vehicle’s air conditioner (A/C) is designed to remove hot air from the interior cabin of your vehicle and replace it with cool air. This air conditioning process is powered by a compressor, which pressurizes the hot air with refrigerant. This pressurization results in cool air blown into your vehicle. This continuous cycle of air compression is dependent on the compressor’s drive belt, or serpentine belt, which may sometimes become cracked and damaged. But keep in mind that breakdowns can occur at any stage of the air conditioning process. Your vehicle’s air conditioning may become damaged due to low levels of refrigerant, clogged condensers, system leaks, or compressor failures. To the untrained eye, it might not be possible to accurately identify the problem plaguing your vehicle’s air conditioning unit. So leave the diagnostic and troubleshooting to our experienced mechanics at Mobile Techs.
An air conditioning diagnostic may include an inspection of the air conditioning compressor belt, an inspection of the air conditioner for leaks or damage, and an operation check of other air conditioning components. We may also perform a vacuum test and a full recharge of the air conditioning system—including your vehicle’s refrigerant. Our mechanics will repair or replace cooling fans and condenser coils as necessary to help keep your car or truck cool during the summer months.

Are there environmental concerns with Air Conditioning? Because the refrigerant used in some auto air conditioning systems is considered harmful to the environment, it is important that it not be allowed to escape during servicing. We begin each air conditioning service with a leak detection test. Our technicians use a sealed, environmentally friendly process that captures the refrigerant, cleans it, replenishes it and returns it to your vehicle's air conditioning system good as new.
What if my vehicle still uses freon? Auto air conditioning systems built before 1995 use the refrigerant R-12 or (CFC-12), also referred to as Freon. The EPA determined that Freon was destroying the ozone layer and in 1995, all production ceased. Freon is now extremely expensive and difficult to find. PTAC offers a retrofit service that enables your A/C system to use the inexpensive R-134a refrigerant. The retrofit pays for itself in the cost savings on the refrigerant.
What does the retrofit service include?
- All retrofits are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Different vehicles may require slightly different procedures.
- We evacuate all R-12 and most of the existing refrigerant oils from the air conditioning system.
- In some instances, certain parts, such as the O-rings, hoses, accumulator or receiver/dryer, must be replaced to assure compatibility with R-134a.
- In addition, special fittings and labels must be placed on the vehicle to properly identify that it has been retrofitted.
This is required by law and is a mandatory part of any air conditioning retrofit procedure. Learn more about AC retrofitting procedure in St Louis and throughout the US. Click here >>>
