Air Conditioning Leak Testing in West Kirby (Wirral)
At D&M Motors, we offer professional air conditioning leak testing at our West Kirby garage, helping drivers across the Wirral accurately diagnose air con faults.
If your air conditioning has stopped working or loses gas shortly after a regas, there is likely a leak within the system. Our advanced leak detection process allows us to pinpoint the issue quickly and accurately.
🔍 How Our Air Con Leak Test Works
We use a nitrogen and hydrogen gas mixture to safely pressure test your air conditioning system.
The system is filled to approximately 11 bar, and we then use a highly sensitive detector that can detect traces of hydrogen escaping, allowing us to locate even very small leaks.
This method is:
- ✔ Highly accurate
- ✔ Safe for your system
- ✔ Capable of detecting very small leaks
- ✔ More effective than basic leak detection methods
⚠️ Why Leak Testing is Important
If your system has a leak:
- A regas will only be a temporary fix
- Refrigerant will escape again
- Cooling performance will quickly drop off
👉 Identifying and repairing the leak is the only long-term solution.
