AC recharge kits let you add refrigerant into your air conditioning system. This may seem like an inexpensive, quick fix for your car’s AC but it is not a good idea. Do-it-yourself AC kits will only cover up the symptoms temporarily. They can also lead to bigger issues. 

Using a recharge kit can allow contaminants into your system which can plug hoses. Recharge kits often leave behind water in the lines that can deteriorate parts of your air conditioning system. It corrodes metal and can fill the system with sludge. 

Many recharge kits act as a stop-leak sealer. The sealer can interfere with your AC system components like the compressor and the hoses. This can lead to even more expensive repairs. 

AC systems require specific types and amounts of refrigerant. It is important to have a trained technician service the system to avoid further damage. Here at First Landing Auto Care, we can check your vehicle’s air conditioning system when you come in for your routine maintenance and oil changes. We hope this level of service will give you Peace Of Mind when it comes to your car and your family’s safety.
