If you smell musty, damp or sour smells from the air con they are usually caused by bacteria, mould, or mildew growing in the system. This can happen if the system hasn’t been used regularly or if it’s overdue a service.
It is advised that you have your air conditioning system regularly checked to prevent it from breaking down completely, which represents a considerable cost. An air conditioning system that doesn’t work properly also leads to higher fuel consumption and can cause nasty smells in the car. There are two types of services: the yearly smaller check-up and the biannual service.
Common repairs include fixing leaks, replacing the compressor, recharging the gas, or flushing the system. Whether it needs a simple re-gas or a more involved repair, our professional service will get your air con working again.
It’s commonly recommended to get your car air con serviced every 1 to 2 years, regardless of whether it seems to be working fine. Bacteria build up, and refrigerant gas levels drop over time and you don’t want it to stop working just as summer or winter start and you need it most.
