Living on the Gold Coast means your car’s air conditioning isn’t just a luxury — it’s a necessity. Regular AC servicing ensures your system can handle the heat and avoids the risk of breakdowns just when you need it most. Over time, components like the compressor, hoses, and condenser wear out or lose efficiency. Servicing helps keep everything in top condition and avoids costly repairs down the track.
Improve fuel efficiency and engine load
A well-maintained AC system doesn’t overwork your engine, meaning less fuel is consumed to keep things cool. If the system is low on refrigerant or clogged with dirt, your compressor has to work harder — increasing fuel use. Regular servicing makes sure the system is clean, topped up, and efficient.
Breathe better with cleaner air
Servicing usually includes replacing the cabin air filter, which traps dust, pollen and other allergens. Clean filters and vents improve not only air flow but also the overall air quality in your car. This is especially helpful for families or anyone with allergies.
How often should you service your AC?
We recommend an AC service every 12 months to keep it running at its best. This typically includes checking pressure, refrigerant levels, hoses, and belts, and cleaning filters. Skipping this check-up can lead to bigger and more expensive issues down the line.

Don’t get caught on a hot day with no relief. A quick annual AC service is an easy way to stay comfortable and save on fuel. At Accel Auto, we’ll keep your air con in peak condition — so you and your family can drive in comfort all year round.
