Why Your Car’s A/C is More Than Just Comfort
Your vehicle’s air conditioning system does more than cool the cabin — it also helps filter and dehumidify the air, improving comfort and visibility. But like any part of your car, it needs regular care to keep working efficiently.
Here’s what can happen when you skip A/C maintenance:
- Weak airflow or warm air blowing from vents
- Strange noises or musty smells
- Reduced fuel efficiency from an overworked system
- Potential damage to the compressor (which can get expensive!)
Signs It’s Time for a Checkup
If your A/C is taking longer to cool, feels inconsistent, or just isn’t cutting it in the afternoon heat… don’t wait. A quick check can prevent small issues from turning into big ones down the road.
We’ve Got Cool Deals Going On 😎
Right now, we’re running our 2025 Summer A/C Service Specials to help keep you and your car cool. Whether you just need a performance check or a recharge, we’ll make sure your system is summer-ready.
A/C & Allergies: Yep, They're Connected 🫣
Did you know a dirty or clogged cabin air filter can trigger allergies? If you're sneezing every time you turn on the vents, it could be due to pollen, dust, or mold trapped in the system. Our A/C service includes checking and replacing this filter, helping you breathe easier!
What’s Actually Involved in an A/C Service?
A proper air conditioning service includes more than just “topping off the freon.”
At Mattie’s, our A/C inspection typically involves:
• Checking refrigerant levels
• Inspect A/C System (belts, hoses, and seals for wear or leaks)
• Testing temperature output
• Examining the compressor and condenser
• Replacing the cabin air filter (if needed)
• Disinfect all vents
• Clean A/C System
Even if your A/C seems “fine,” regular checkups can catch hidden issues before they get worse, especially if your car is a few years old or has been through tough winters.
How Often Should You Service Your A/C?
We recommend having your A/C system checked at least once a year, ideally before summer begins. If you notice any of these red flags 🚩come in sooner:
• Air isn’t getting cold
• A/C smells musty
• Airflow is weak or loud
• You hear clicking or rattling when it runs
