Recharge The AC Freon In Your Car Or Truck

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

Your truck or car's AC system is almost completely airtight, but your freon refrigerant is always slowly leaking out. Eventually, a car will lose enough freon so that its air conditioning system will no longer cool effectively. At 3 Brothers Auto Repair at 256 Portion Rd we are ready to recharge your AC to help you keep your car or truck's cabin temperature cool.

"Help My AC Only Blows Warm Air!"

New advancements in R134a freon systems means that freon in newer cars doesn't leak out as much as old R12 freon systems. The average new model economy car only leaks about 0.41 ounces of refrigerant per year. Come to 3 Brothers Auto Repair in Ronkonkoma when it's time to recharge your AC freon.

3 Brothers Auto Repair's Fast 3 Step Process:
  • Vacuum out all the old refrigerant before refilling it.
  • Add new R134a refrigerant.
  • Pressurize your car's AC system and test for mico-leaks.
"Does 3 Brothers Auto Repair Have R12 Freon For My Classic Car?"

Unfortunately R12 freon is no longer available. If your car or truck was made before 1994 you must convert your entire AC system to the new R134a standard. This involves replacing dozens of seals and several AC auto parts. R134a is a more highly pressurized and much more efficient refrigerant pound for pound than R12. Most classic car AC compressors and condensers cannot withstand the intense pressure required and choose to add about 25% less freon to accommodate older systems. This means your AC may not cool as well as it used to. Converting your R12 system to R134a is a big job so stop by 3 Brothers Auto Repair today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right. Visit us today at 256 Portion Rd.

"Is Used Freon Ok?"

Many auto repair shops resell used AC refrigerant. The old freon is cleaned using a specialized recovery machine that removes contaminants. Used freon provided by 3 Brothers Auto Repair works just as well as new freon after it's cleaned. Accepting used freon is a great way to help minimize the impact freon has on the environment.

Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your car's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Ronkonkoma are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the car's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 631-676-7800 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 256 Portion Rd and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

This place is great and very honest! I thought I needed a alternator and about a half hour of my Jeep being at the shop I get a call from them telling me I don't need a alternator and that it was just a lost wiring. They just charged me a portion of the hour labor which is $110 an hour. Other places aren't so honest and always try and get you to do more on your car this was not the case with them. Also they quoted me originally the least expensive compared to 4 other places I quoted. Highly recommend
