Around 70% of vehicles on the road are fitted with air conditioning, this percentage maybe much higher here in the Costa Blanca as we have warm weather all years round even in the winter we can have surprisingly warm days! With so much warm weather the air condition is used regularly and some people forget to turn it off, we such high use it is important to have your air-conditioning checked often, keeping your air-conditioning system in good working condition is important as it can be one of the most expensive features to run in your car so you want to make sure it's working as efficiently as possible. Even though we live in such a warm climate your air/conditioning system still works hard during the colder days and nights as it is the same system that creates all that nice warm air that de-mists your windscreen and warms up your fingers and toes, if the system isn't working to its full potential then it's costing you money and getting it checked and sorted will save you money in the long term as if the air-conditioning and heating is not working at 100% its burning more fuel as your car is under more pressure
Car services do not normally include the air-conditioning checks and are normally charged as an extra, we recommend that if you cannot remember the last time you had your air/con checked or if it's been over 2 years give us a contact us to arrange an appointment or pop in and we can make sure that the system is fully lubricated, gets a full re-charge of gas and the whole system is functioning correctly
Air con systems which are not fully recharged will be less effective and have to work harder putting more strain on the engine and using more fuel. Remember that your air-con system is just as important in the winter as it is in the summer, as it creates dry warm air rather than the normal humid air from outside and this demists your car windscreen more quickly.
