Air conditioning in Gainesville, FL

Air conditioning that works in August.

Warm air, weak air or an intermittent system in a Florida summer is not a small problem. We diagnose the whole system, from refrigerant and leaks to compressors, condensers, evaporators and the climate-control electronics that run them.

What's included

What the work includes.

The scope, in plain terms. Your advisor confirms it for your car before anything starts.

DiagnosisA/C diagnosis and leak inspection

Pressure testing and leak inspection first, so a recharge is not thrown at a leak.

RechargeRefrigerant recharge

With a pressure test and leak inspection, for systems that only need it.

ComponentsCompressor, condenser, evaporator

Replacement of failed components where a recharge alone will not restore cooling.

ElectronicsClimate-control faults

Blend doors, sensors, control modules and fans diagnosed with the factory system.

HeatNo heat and intermittent heat

Heater cores, valves and controls.

CabinCabin filter

Replaced when it is part of the problem, or simply due.

In our words

Air conditioning at Continental Imports.

European climate control

Automatic climate control on a Mercedes-Benz, BMW or Audi is a networked system with its own diagnostics. Reading it with the factory tool tells us whether the fault is refrigerant, a mechanical component or an electronic one before we start replacing parts.

Questions

Owners ask.

Anything else, call and ask for a service advisor.

My A/C blows cold sometimes and warm other times. What is that?

Often an electrical or control fault rather than refrigerant, which is why we diagnose before recharging.

Do you just top up the refrigerant?

Only when the diagnosis says that is what the system needs; a leak inspection comes first.

How long does an A/C repair take?

It depends on the finding. Your advisor will quote time and, if it is a longer job, arrange a loaner or a ride.
