AC Recharge

Can You Recharge Your AC With Freon?Recharge your air conditioning with new R134 refrigerant, freon. If your car uses R134 type refrigerant, you can recharge your own AC system.

photo by Matt Wright, 2008Before you set out to recharge your car's air conditioner system, you need to be sure your car uses the newer R134 (not the older R12 refrigerant). The best way to determine this is to check your car's owners manual, or you can consult your repair manual. You do have a repair manual, don't you? It's a must for do-it-yourself auto repair.

If your car was manufactured after 1994, chances are you're in the R134 camp. If your car uses the older R12 refrigerant, you should take it to a repair shop and have it converted to the newer stuff so you can be in the cool again.

If your AC system is R134 equipped, read on and we'll help you recharge your air conditioning so you'll be away from the "blowing warm" blues.
