Automotive AC Service and Repair

If you drive a car that has no A/C, you are about to experience an uncomfortable and sweaty ride. Having a properly working A/C in your car can keep you and other passengers cool and comfortable during the entire ride. The certified technicians at our repair shop are highly trained in A/C recharge and evacuation and can assess interior climate control issues.


The main function of the air conditioner in your car is to cool the air that is coming into your passenger compartment using 3 main parts: the condenser, evaporator, and compressor.

When you come to our auto repair shop, this first thing our technicians will do is to discuss the faulty A/C system symptoms with you. After that, they will perform a visual inspection of the air conditioning compressor drive belt, serpentine belt, and all other accessible components for damage, leaks or cracks. Then, they'll inspect the operation of the air conditioning compressor. They'll evacuate the refrigerant from the system if no damage or leaks are found, vacuum test it and recharge the A/C system with the help of an appropriate refrigerant that complies with your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.


Detecting damage or leaks to the A/C system of your vehicle sooner rather than later can save you both time and money, keeping you and everyone in your car cool and worry-free. Call us today or come to our auto repair shop and schedule an appointment with our technicians!


AC Recharge Video

When your A/C system does not cool the cabin properly, it might be time to recharge the system. It is frustrating, and uncomfortable when your air conditioning is inoperable on a hot day in Laguna Beach. Refrigerant is the liquid that runs through your A/C system cooling it down as it flows, to ultimately convert hot air into cool. Without this liquid, your air conditioner won’t be able to do its job. If you notice that it’s taking too long to cool down the cabin, an inspection or A/C recharge by the qualified team at Laguna Auto Service Center may be necessary. Without enough refrigerant in the system, your A/C won’t be able to create cool air in the summer and might not be able to defrost in the winter. Your A/C is a closed system. A lack of refrigerant is a big sign that something is wrong. If ignored long enough, additional damage to the air conditioning system could occur. This is why it is important to contact Laguna Auto Service Center at the first sign of AC trouble. From a safety standpoint, there is a minimal safety risk, but the air in the cabin can become uncomfortable. From an environmental point of view, there is significant impact because leaking refrigerant is poisonous and could be ingested by children, pets, and other animals. If your air conditioning system is in need of a recharge or inspection call Laguna Auto Service Center in Laguna Beach, CA at (949) 494-2117  today.

When was the last time your cabin air filter was replaced? Laguna Auto Service Center in Laguna Beach has the experience, and expertise to replace your cabin air filter in a timely fashion. The cabin air filter traps smog and other pollutants from getting inside of your vehicle. Because it filters air to the inside of the car (cabin), an old or contaminated air filter may damage the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems of your vehicle. The cabin air filter contributes to the quality of air you and other passengers breathe. A new cabin air filter adequately protects against pollen, dust, bacteria, and exhaust. Most automakers recommend replacing the cabin air filter on a regular basis. If you have questions about whether your cabin air filter should be replaced, or inspected, call Laguna Auto Service Center in Laguna Beach at (949) 494-2117. You may also schedule an appointment online.
