In a Phoenix summer, a car that will not cool is more than an annoyance. Hardy Mechanics finds why your A/C stopped blowing cold and fixes it, whether it is a small leak or a bigger repair.
Signs you may need auto A/C repair
- Air from the vents is warm or only slightly cool
- Weak airflow, even on the highest fan setting
- The A/C works while driving but not at idle
- A musty or burning smell when the A/C is on
- Clicking, rattling or squealing when the A/C turns on
- Water leaking inside the cabin
What we do
- A/C cooling performance test
- Leak detection and repair, including o-rings, hoses and seals
- Refrigerant recharge after the leak is fixed
- Compressor, condenser and fan diagnosis
- Blower motor and cabin air filter checks
Chris Hardy services all makes and models of cars and trucks. We explain what we find in plain language so you can decide what to fix.
Common questions
Why did my A/C stop blowing cold?
The most common cause is low refrigerant from a small leak, such as a worn o-ring or seal. Other causes include a failing compressor, a clogged filter or an electrical problem. A cooling test tells us which.
Is a recharge enough?
A system that has lost refrigerant has usually leaked, so we find and fix the leak first and then recharge. Otherwise the cold air tends to fade again.
When should I get my A/C checked?
Ideally before the summer heat peaks. If the air is already getting weaker, do not wait.
