Air Con Regas in Brentford
Air con regas done properly for Brentford, a short drive away in Park Royal. Transparent pricing, qualified technicians and quality parts.
Parked nose-to-tail at the kerb through a TW8 summer, a car's air conditioning gets a hard life: the system bakes in the sun, seals dry out between uses, and refrigerant seeps away a little every year. Our full regas and leak check restores properly cold air.
What air con regas in Brentford involves
We evacuate the old refrigerant, check the system for leaks, recharge it to the correct specification and verify performance, covering both R134a and R1234yf systems, so your cabin cools quickly and stays fresh. An anti bacterial cleanse is available too, and the work is all done at our Park Royal workshop. There is more on how we do the job, and what it costs, on our Air Con Regas page.
Air con for cars that live kerbside
Cars that live at the kerb around Brentford's riverside streets rarely get garaged shade, so cabins heat up fiercely and drivers lean on the air con hard from the first turn of the key. A system a few percent low on refrigerant works flat out and cools slowly, and the low-speed shuffle for parking spaces gives the condenser little airflow to help it. Most systems lose enough gas to matter within two to three years.
After circling for a space near the stadium on a warm afternoon, a driver notices the vents blowing merely cool rather than cold. We evacuate the old refrigerant, vacuum test for leaks, recharge to specification for R134a or R1234yf, and verify vent temperatures before the car leaves.
If you are booking in anyway, DPF cleaning can be done on the same visit.

Local tip for Brentford drivers: Run your air con for ten minutes each week through winter. It keeps the seals lubricated so refrigerant stays in, and it is the fastest way to demist a car left at the kerb overnight.
Your air con regas questions, answered
How often should air con be regassed?
Every two to three years is typical, because systems naturally lose a small percentage of refrigerant annually through the seals, faster on cars parked outside year-round at the kerb. If your vents are cool rather than cold, it is due.
Do you handle both older and newer air con systems?
Yes, we service both R134a systems in older cars and R1234yf in most cars registered from 2017 onwards. We evacuate the old refrigerant, vacuum test for leaks and recharge to the exact specification for your vehicle.
Why does my air con smell musty when it starts?
Bacteria and mould build up on the evaporator, especially in cars parked in shade and used for short hops around town. An anti-bacterial cleanse alongside the regas clears the smell and keeps the cabin fresh through summer.
