Many of us use air-con or climate control in our car, and like other systems of your car, the air-conditioning system also needs regular maintenance to keep it working efficiently.

More than ten per cent of air-con gas permeates from the air-con system every year, reducing the efficiency and impeding operation. Manufacturers recommend your air-con system is serviced every two years.

This service is not part of routine vehicle servicing.

Air-con systems that are not fully recharged are less effective and therefore they work harder which then puts more strain on the compressor and engine, the end result is your vehicle burns more fuel.

The Prasads Automotive Ltd offers a complete air conditioning service, which also includes a system bacterial clean, keeping your car environment hygienic and prevents unpleasant odours.
