Air Conditioning & Heating

Your comfort and well-being are very important when it comes to taking the wheel, so it is vital that the air conditioning is working properly. The components, such as the dirty cabin filter and the refrigerant leak over time, which is why regular maintenance of your heating and air conditioning system is required to maintain its effectiveness, protect your health and ensure a comfortable journey on the road.

Heating and a/c systems work to keep the interior of your car warm in winter and cool in summer. Heating and automotive air conditioning systems can wear out over time. Pipes can easily become clogged and lead to leakage if they are not used, leading to poor efficacy or lack of cooling and full heating. Good routine maintenance can keep your car comfortable.

 

The best ways to tell if a vehicle has heating and air conditioning problems:

  • If your air conditioning blowing air just a little cooler than the outside air

  • The blown air has a smell of damp or mold

  • Your heater does not heat in cold weather, or just a little warmer than the outside air

  • The defrosting takes longer than normal to clear windows

  • Defroster does not work

  • Your heater or your air conditioning only works when driving, does not work in going slow or stops blowing altogether when the vehicle is stationary

  • Your heater blows cold air, or air conditioning blowing hot air

 

Pit Stop Automotive uses modern equipment and tools to solve many problems of air conditioning in your vehicle. We have auto mechanic experts in locating leaks in air conditioning systems in the Los Angeles area. We analyze all the heating and AC systems to see where the problems are located. It is often common to have more than one fault so it is very important to locate them all, otherwise, the repair is not complete and you will have to go back through the repair shop to re-repair, which can be very time-consuming. This is the big difference between Pit Stop Automotive and other automotive repair shops.

Our technicians are certified and trained to evacuate and recharge your air conditioning. They can perform overall maintenance of your air conditioning system, check and refill the gas and oil cooling compressor, test the overall efficiency of the device and if necessary, apply an antibacterial treatment for bad smells like mold and bacteria.

We have the satisfaction of our customers at heart and we do everything in our power to meet or exceed their expectations at all times.
