Automotive Tips from Tuffy Lake In The Hills: Air Conditioning Inspection

November 20, 2017

Most auto manufacturers recommend an interval for an air conditioning system inspection. The inspection uncovers leaks, worn hoses and assesses the condition of the other components.

Environmental laws in some around Lake In The Hills require leaks to be repaired before refrigerant can be added. Also some parts manufacturers require other components to be replaced along with certain failed parts in order to maintain the new part warranty. This is because a given failure may be the result of another worn or damaged part that will, if not replaced, prematurely damage the new component.

Tuffy Lake In The Hills in Lake In The Hills is fully equipped to restore your flow of cool air.
