For Air Conditioning services local to you, come see your nearest Tyrepower store. Our fully qualified Air Conditioning technicians are ready to inspect and service your vehicle's air conditioning.
Air conditioning systems aren’t just for cooling the interior of your vehicle down, they offer a valuable feature to help de-mist windows, by removing humidity from inside your car.
As the air passes over the evaporator under your dashboard, excess moisture is pulled from the air, forming the condensation you can sometimes see dripping under your car while the A/C is running.
This dry air will absorb the moisture clinging to the inside of your windows, clearing them up.
Oftentimes, we see cars brought in for poorly smelling air conditioning vents. This can be caused by mildew and mould that forms when a cars air conditioning drains are not functioning properly.
Air Conditioning Services offered by your Tyrepower store
A proper air conditioning service isn’t much more than a temperature test, putting more gas in it and sending it back out the door. We have the specialist tools to properly diagnose and repair faulty air conditioning systems to ensure years of dependable service.
Our air conditioning services include:
- Air conditioning diagnosis and leak detection using high quality dye to detect leaks
- If necessary, compressor replacement using new genuine, aftermarket or refurbished parts

Why air conditioning servicing is important
Annual air conditioning servicing is crucial for the longevity of your air conditioning system. Not only does the gas in the system work as a refrigerant, it also has lubricants added to help the o-rings seal the system from leaking, as well as maintaining proper compressor functionality.
Maintaining a clean cabin filter will promote easy airflow through the ductwork in your car and improve the efficiency of both your air conditioning and your heater systems.
If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms your air conditioning system requires an inspection and diagnostic check.
