Refrigerant
Refrigerant is the special fluid that absorbs heat and makes your A/C blow cold air. When levels run low your system can't cool properly, so your mechanic will add the correct refrigerant for your vehicle and verify everything is working.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my refrigerant is low?
The most common sign is air that isn't as cold as it used to be. A technician can measure the level and pressure to confirm.
Which refrigerant does my car use?
It depends on the make and model year. Your mechanic will check the label or specs and use the exact type your vehicle requires.
Is it safe to add refrigerant myself?
Refrigerant must be handled carefully and charged to the right amount. It's safest to let a professional add it so the system isn't damaged.
