air con maintenance
Here at Okee we have the correct equipment and knowledge to maintain and service almost all automotive air con systems. Most modern vehicles come with air con as standard, but not all garages are able to carry out repairs on these systems. Although these systems are relatively simple in design, and don’t require too much attention, they do require regular servicing.
It is estimated that 6–10% of refrigerant gas will naturally leak from your system every 12 months. At Okee, before any new refrigerant is put into your car, a thorough leakage test is carried out, to ensure a re-gas is not a complete waste of time and money.

Advice
Air conditioning really should be used all year round and not just in the summer. The way the system cools the air is very clever and the process actually cleans and dries the air. Using air con all year round will dramatically reduce or eradicate condensation buildup on the inside of the windscreen. You’re probably thinking that using air con continuously will hugely increase your fuel bill, but this is no longer the case and the additional fuel consumption is minimal. In the 70’s and 80’s this would be true but modern systems with variable displacement pumps have changed everything.
AIR CON on
and windows shut
When your windows are open it creates drag and effectively turns your car into a balloon, thus forcing the engine to work harder which will burn more fuel as it has to work harder to push itself down the road. Having your windows shut allows the passing air to flow all the way over the car, increasing the aerodynamics. By doing this the engine doesn’t need to work as hard, and uses much less fuel.
