A/C Freon Recharge
The Freon in your A/C system is what keeps your auto cool. Freon is a halocarbon that will cycles through your air conditioning system. Freon is a refrigerant that works to regulate the temperature of your vehicle by cycling through gas and liquid phases. In order to maintain cool temperatures inside your vehicle it is important that there isn’t a Freon leak in the air conditioning system in your vehicle.
Basically, there are two kinds of Freon for A/C systems. A Freon known as R112 was originally used in auto A/C systems in vehicles. However, it was determined that the ozone layer is depleted whenever a vehicle emits R-12 Freon. In 1995, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) outlawed ozone depleting substances and, R-12 Freon was replaced with R-134a Freon now used instead.
You’re A/C system can be retrofitted with R-134a Freon if you own a vehicle that was manufactured prior to 1994. Air conditioning system retrofitting is one of our A/C system services. Visit our shop in Sacramento to find out how we can help keep the environment safe and your auto cool.
