[Air Conditioner Refrigerant Maintenance for Imported Cars|Compatible with R134a・R1234yf]
While using your air conditioner, have you ever felt that it is “not cooling as well as before” or “taking longer to start working”?
The air conditioner refrigerant gas may decrease little by little depending on the number of years in use and the vehicle’s condition. If the gas is insufficient, the cooling performance may be harder to keep stable, and the air conditioner may be put under extra load.
At LOGON, we use the air conditioner refrigerant maintenance unit “PS134” with Dual specifications that supports both R134a and R1234yf.
In addition to R134a, which has been used in many vehicles up to now, we also support R1234yf, which has been adopted in recent new cars and imported cars.
Because the refrigerant used differs by vehicle model, it is important in air conditioner refrigerant maintenance to first confirm the refrigerant that matches your vehicle. Work cannot be performed with the refrigerant type mistaken, so we confirm the vehicle specifications and respond appropriately.
The PS134 is equipped with functions to remove impurities from the recovered refrigerant gas and reclaim it.
By recovering the refrigerant from inside the air conditioner once, then filling in the required amount of refrigerant and oil while checking its condition, we avoid insufficient gas quantity or overfilling, and restore the air conditioner’s original performance.
Especially since R1234yf is an expensive refrigerant, being able to work while confirming the necessary amount is an important point during maintenance.
Even if your air conditioner is cooling less effectively, the cause is not always a shortage of refrigerant gas. Other parts such as refrigerant leaks or the compressor may be the cause.
Therefore, rather than simply adding gas, we determine whether maintenance is necessary while checking the vehicle’s condition and how well it is cooling.
If it were me, I would think it’s better to have it properly inspected once and perform only the necessary work, rather than continuing to use it despite feeling that it does not cool well. If you have any concerns about an imported car’s air conditioner, please tell us the vehicle model and symptoms. Let’s confirm the appropriate approach together based on your specific vehicle.
