Car and Van Air Conditioning Servicing and Maintenance

As summer rolls around again, having a clean and well-functioning car air conditioning system is essential to staying cool behind the wheel. 

At ATS, we offer a range of car and van air conditioning services, including air conditioning recharge/regas and anti-bacterial cleaning. Our car air conditioning servicing will keep your vehicle's air-con system blowing cool air and running as efficiently as possible. To keep the air conditioning in your car working at optimal performance all year round, we recommend having your system checked and serviced once the vehicle is 2 years old and annually thereafter. 

If you're an EV owner, you can also find car AC services for you at ATS. Our technicians are trained to carry out our air conditioning servicing on hybrid and electric vehicles.

Air conditioning in cars is essential to keeping your cabin cool and your windscreen clear. If you notice that your car AC isn't blowing cold air or is struggling to demist your windscreen, then it’s time to get your air-con system checked over by ATS Euromaster. 

Vehicle manufacturers typically recommend that drivers get their car and van air conditioning systems (along with their refrigerant gas levels) checked after the vehicle is two years old, then annually thereafter. This is to ensure maximum system operating efficiency, as AC systems lose refrigerant naturally over time.

We offer car air conditioning services such as air-con regas and anti-bacterial treatment for both of the refrigerant gases widely used in vehicles today (R134a and R1234yf). Automotive air-con servicing ensures your vehicle's AC unit is running as cool and as efficiently as possible. We can also check for leaks in the system prior to recharging it with the correct volume of refrigerant gas, as well as topping up essential system component lubricating oils.

ATS Euromaster offers a widespread network of garages with air conditioning equipment for servicing vehicles with R1234yf refrigerant. This is the new air conditioning gas used by most motor vehicles registered after 1st January 2017.

If you’re unsure whether your car or van air conditioning system needs to have its refrigerant gas topped up, our centre experts will be happy to carry out a free temperature test. This will tell us if the air coming from your air-con is as cool as it should be.

With over 235 centres that carry out air conditioning refrigerant services throughout the UK, you can easily find air conditioning servicing near you with ATS.
