Air con regas services in Blandford
Modern vehicles use two main types of refrigerant gas. We handle both, so you don’t need to worry about turning up somewhere only to be told they can’t regas your system.
R134a air con regas in Dorset
R134a is commonly found in vehicles registered before around 2017. If your car falls into this bracket, we can carry out a full R134a regas in Blandford, including:
Recovering old gas from the system
Vacuum and moisture removal to protect components
Leak check during the vacuum stage
Recharge with the correct amount of R134a and oil
You’ll usually notice a big difference straight away – colder air, faster cooling, and less strain on the system.
R1234yf air con regas in Blandford
Newer vehicles typically use R1234yf, a lower‑GWP refrigerant. It requires the right equipment and correct handling. We provide R1234yf regassing in Blandford with the same professional process:
System identification and connection to R1234yf‑compatible machine
Recovery, vacuum, and leak check
Recharge with manufacturer‑specified quantity
Performance check at the vents
If you’re not sure which gas your car uses, don’t worry – we’ll confirm it from the under‑bonnet label or vehicle details before starting.
Frequently asked questions – air con regas in Blandford
How long does a mobile air con regas take?
Most appointments in Blandford take around 30–45 minutes per vehicle, depending on the system and gas type. We’ll give you a clear time window when you book.
Do you really come to my home or workplace in Blandford?
Yes. As long as we can safely access the vehicle and park nearby, we can carry out the regas on your driveway, at your workplace, or another agreed location in or around Blandford.
How often should I regas my air conditioning?
Many manufacturers suggest every 2–3 years, but it depends on usage and system condition. If your air con is no longer cold, is slow to cool, or you haven’t had it done for several years, it’s usually time to book a regas.
Do you fix leaks as well as regas?
We always carry out basic leak checks as part of the process. If we suspect a significant leak, we’ll explain your options. Some issues may require further diagnostic work at a specialist workshop.
