(NUI) - If the air conditioning in your vehicle is not blowing cold in 90-degree heat, you'll probably be running to the repair shop. But should you? If saving money and time are your goals, many car repair experts say maybe not.
According to industry research, most people are not aware that they can "recharge" their automobile's air conditioning themselves. Recharging is simply adding refrigerant.
Easy-to-use, cost effective air conditioner charging products, such as Measure & Charge from Interdynamics, can save the do-it-yourselfer up to $100 per use compared to repair shop services. When factoring in the cost of a rental car, time spent at the repair shop and disruption of the daily routine caused by using a service station to do the job, the savings become even more significant.
"Recharging your vehicle's air conditioning system is a simple process that takes less than 10 minutes from start to finish," said Vincent Carrubba, director of research and development at Interdynamics.
Measure & Charge can be found at most automotive stores. For more information on do-it-yourself air conditioner recharging and retrofitting, visit www.id-usa.com.
