What Does It Mean to Have Your Toyota's A/C System Recharged?
If your Toyota's air conditioning system is blowing warm air into the passenger compartment, your A/C may need to be recharged. This is the technical term for adding refrigerant to your system so that it starts blowing cold air again. If you're wondering how often you should have your Toyota's A/C recharged, the answer is not based upon a particular length of time or number of miles driven. Instead, it is based upon performance; if the air coming from the system is no longer cold, then it's time to schedule an A/C recharge appointment.
What is Involved in an Air Conditioner Recharge Service?
Our certified technicians at Toyota of Del Rio will check your A/C system to determine whether there is a larger issue at play, such as a leak in your system. If your refrigerant level is low, it is likely due to a leak in the system, as refrigerant should not evaporate within a closed system. If there is a leak identified, our technicians can fix the issue efficiently, using parts straight from the manufacturer. When recharging your system, a technician will drain the refrigerant, run it through a system that removes impurities, then inject the clean refrigerant back into your vehicle's system. Then the refrigerant level will be topped off. This is followed by a test of the system to ensure it is functioning properly without leaks.
Can I Perform the A/C Recharge on My Own?
While it may seem like you perform an A/C recharge on your own, there are hazardous chemicals involved and specialized extraction equipment used, which are best left to a trained technician. This includes the proper environmental disposal of such chemicals, as EPA regulations prohibit the release of refrigerant into the atmosphere.
