How Often Should Car Air Conditioning Need Freon Refill?

[KendraLynn]

As long as there is no leakage, the Freon in a car's air conditioning system can generally last a lifetime without needing replenishment. Refilling Freon is only necessary when a leak occurs, at which point it's essential to identify the cause of the leakage and promptly replenish the missing Freon. Below is a guide on how to refill refrigerant in a car: 1. Connect the Pipes: Attach the hoses of the car refrigerant recovery and refill machine to the high and low-pressure pipes of the car's air conditioning system—red hose to the high-pressure pipe and blue hose to the low-pressure pipe. 2. Evacuate the System: Once the hoses are correctly connected and the refrigerant recovery and refill machine has completed its self-check, proceed to evacuate the air conditioning system. 3. Add Refrigerant: Set the refill capacity, time, and type on the refrigerant recovery and refill machine according to the maximum refrigerant capacity specified for the vehicle's air conditioning system. After confirmation, the machine will automatically begin adding the refrigerant.
