Why Your Car Air Conditioning Needs a Regas?

Your air conditioning does more than keep you cool — it also improves comfort and helps demist your windows. Most manufacturers recommend servicing it every two years, so if it hasn’t been regassed recently or isn’t performing well, it’s likely time for a recharge.

Your car’s air conditioning system does more than keep you cool on hot days. When it’s working properly, it helps to:

Maintains a comfortable cabin temperature
Filters out pollutants, dust and pollen
Helps demist windows faster in cold or damp weather

Over time, the refrigerant gas in your aircon system naturally reduces. This leads to:

Air that isn’t as cold as it should be
The car taking longer to cool down
Increased fuel consumption as the system works harder
Poorer demisting performance

Car Air Conditioning Regas - FAQs

How do I know if my car needs an aircon regas?

Common signs your aircon needs a regas include:
·       Air from the vents is no longer very cold
·       It takes a long time to cool the car down
·       Windows take longer to demist
·       You notice odd smells when you first switch the aircon on
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, a car aircon check and regas is recommended.

How often should I regas my car air conditioning?

Most manufacturers recommend an aircon service every two years. However, if you notice a drop in performance sooner than that, it’s worth having the system checked earlier.

What is the difference between R134a and R1234yf?

R134a is the older-style refrigerant used in many vehicles up to around 2017.
R1234yf is the newer, lower global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant used in most modern vehicles to meet environmental regulations.

At Midland Autocare Walsall, we can regas both R134a and R1234yf systems and will always use the correct gas for your car.

How long does a car aircon regas take?

A typical air conditioning regas usually takes around 45–60 minutes, depending on the vehicle and whether any issues are found during the checks.

Do you work on all makes and models?

Yes. We can carry out aircon regas and air conditioning checks on most makes and models of cars and light commercial vehicles, provided we have access to the correct type of refrigerant and service ports.

Is air conditioning regas included in a standard car service?

In most cases, aircon regas is not included in a routine car service and is treated as an additional job. That’s why many vehicles go several years without their aircon being checked. If you’re unsure, we can advise you and book a dedicated aircon service.
