Car Air Con Regas: Stay Cool and Comfortable in Poole

Your car’s air conditioning does more than just keep you cool on a hot summer day — it also helps demist your windscreen in winter and filters out pollen and pollutants. But like any system, it needs regular maintenance to work properly. That’s where a simple air con regas comes in.

At Moto-Oil Autocentre in Poole, we offer quick, affordable air conditioning services to keep your system performing at its best all year round. Here’s what you need to know.

What Is an Air Con Regas?

Regassing means removing the old refrigerant gas from your system and replacing it with fresh gas. Over time, your car naturally loses refrigerant — about 10–15% per year — which reduces cooling power and can strain the compressor.

Regassing restores your AC’s cooling performance, improves air quality, and helps prevent costly repairs down the line.

How Often Should You Regas?

Most manufacturers recommend a regas every 2–3 years. If you’ve never done it, or your air con isn’t as cold as it used to be, it’s probably time to book in.

Signs Your Air Con Needs a Regas

• Warm air: Air blows but doesn’t feel cold
• Slow demisting: Windscreen fogs up easily
• Bad odours: Musty or damp smells from vents
• Louder compressor noise: Unusual sounds when AC is on

If you notice any of these, book a regas appointment online with our experienced team.

What’s Included in Our Air Con Service?

At Moto-Oil Autocentre, our air con regas includes:

1. Recovering old refrigerant
2. Vacuum testing for leaks
3. Recharging with the correct gas (R134a or R1234yf)
4. Adding new oil to lubricate the compressor
5. Checking system pressures and temperatures

We also offer an optional anti-bacterial treatment to remove odours and kill mould inside the system.

• R134a regas: From £59.95
• R1234yf regas: From £89.95

We’ll always confirm your gas type before we start and give you a clear quote — no hidden fees.

How Long Does It Take?

Most regas jobs take about 45–60 minutes. You’re welcome to relax in our waiting area or drop the car off and pick it up later.

What If There’s a Leak?

We check for leaks as part of every regas. If we find a fault, we’ll explain what needs fixing and provide a fair quote. Small leaks may be fixable with specialist sealant — larger issues may need new parts.
