FAQs

If your A/C is not blowing cold you probably are low on refrigerant due to a leak. Most leaks are in rubber components such as O-rings, hoses and gaskets.
We recommend using a pressure gauge to determine an accurate fill. A/C Pro®’s colour-coded gauges indicate whether you should continue filling (charging) or not.
The best way to find leaks is with our R-134a UV Leak Detection Kit (part # 436) which provides UV dye, high-intensity UV light and yellow tinted protective glasses.
