Car A/C Repair in Arlington & Annandale, VA

Warm air, weak airflow or a strange smell. We find the leak or the failed part instead of just adding refrigerant that leaks out again.

Common A/C problems we fix

  • Air blows warm or only cool on the highway
  • Weak airflow from the vents
  • Clicking, squealing or grinding when the A/C turns on
  • Musty smell from the vents
  • Water on the passenger floor
  • Heat doesn't work or the defroster is weak

What we check

  • System pressures and vent temperature
  • Leak detection with dye or an electronic detector
  • Compressor, clutch, condenser and fan operation
  • Blower motor, resistor and blend-door actuators
  • Cabin air filter
  • Recharge with the correct refrigerant for your vehicle (R-134a or R-1234yf)

Fix it once

A recharge alone is a band-aid if there's a leak. We find why it lost refrigerant, show you, and quote the fix so you're not back in a month.

Serving Arlington, Annandale, Falls Church, Alexandria, Bailey's Crossroads, Seven Corners and Fairfax County.

Common questions

How much is an A/C recharge?

It depends on the refrigerant your car uses. Newer cars with R-1234yf cost more to recharge than older R-134a systems. We confirm the type and quote before we start.

Why does my A/C only work sometimes?

Common causes are a low charge from a slow leak, a failing compressor clutch, a cooling fan problem or a bad pressure switch. Testing tells us which.

Do you fix the heater too?

Yes. Heater cores, blend doors, thermostats and blower motors are all part of the same system.
