What to Expect from an Air Conditioner Recharge Service at Thompsons Toyota

When you bring your Toyota in for an A/C recharge, our certified technicians will first inspect your air conditioning system to determine if there are any leaks or underlying issues you should be aware of. If your refrigerant level is low, this most likely means there is a leak within your reservoir, as it should not evaporate within a properly closed system. If a leak is identified, our technicians can repair it or replace any necessary components using genuine OEM parts from the manufacturer. As far as the actual recharge goes, we will first drain the refrigerant using extraction equipment and then run it through a system to remove contaminants. This recycled refrigerant will then be injected back into your Toyota’s system. If the level is low, we’ll top it off with additional refrigerant. Lastly, we will test your system to make sure it is operating properly.
