Cool Air Capalaba has simplified the service line-up and offers three service options.
All procedures are carried out by licensed technicians and only premium quality parts are used.
re-gassed
Air conditioning systems need regular servicing due to the natural porosity of the hoses and components of the air conditioning systems in modern vehicles In all vehicles the refrigerant gas will leak slowly out of the A/C system at a rate of 10-15% per year, thereby making your system gradually less efficient until it finally stops working all together.
If you let your A/C system run out of refrigerant and then you don’t use the system for several months the chances are that internal component seals will dry out and you will have leaks in your system when it is eventually re-gassed – “This could be expensive”

Following a successful Inspection the system can then be Re-Gassed. Included in this Re-Gas Service is the application of a deep vacuum to remove spent gases and moisture,
Followed by a vacuum leak check before refilling the system with the correctly weighed out measure of gas (plus Ultra Violet Dye if required.) Once the Re-Gas is completed the A/C system is comprehensively re-tested to check the overall performance.
Please note that we do not and cannot offer a top up service, as this is illegal.

Following a successful Inspection the AC System is evacuated of remaining gas.
The Filter Drier is replaced, the A/C Oil is topped up as necessary and then it is Re-Gassed. Included in this Re-Gas Service is the application of a deep vacuum to remove spent gases and moisture. This is followed by a vacuum leak check before refilling the system with the correct weighed out measure of gas and Ultra Violet dye if needed. Once the Re-Gas is completed the A/C system is comprehensively re-tested to check the overall performance.
The Air Conditioning Service includes the following:-
Static & operating pressure checks
In-car delivery temperature measurement
Leak check with electric detector
Fan speeds & vent operation
Compressor clutch operation
Drive belt visual check

Changing the filter drier
* Please note the price of servicing varies according to the cost of the filter drier, which are different for each vehicle however, once we know the make and model of your vehicle we will be able to give you a price on application (poa)
filter/drier replacement:
price on application
The filter drier ensures no particles or moisture circulates in the air conditioning system, which can cause serious damage to the compressor. The filter/drier normally lasts 2 years, but if any system leaks are present then excess moisture generally renders the drier inoperable. Please contact us if you wish to price a filter drier for your vehicle.
NOTE : AC DUEL ( TWIN ) SYSTEMS – EXTRA COST – POA LUXURY, IMPORT & COMMERCIAL VEHICLES – EXTRA COST – POA.
Note: It is illegal for anyone to Re-Charge or Regas a vehicle with a known AC leak.
Waste refrigerant removed from the vehicle will be disposed of in accordance with Ozone Protection and Synthetic Greenhouse Gas Management Act 1989.
