Air-Conditioning Recharge in Scarborough
A proper recharge means evacuating the system, checking for leaks and refilling to the exact weight your vehicle specifies.
Signs your vehicle needs this service
- Cooling has gradually become weaker each summer
- The system was opened for another repair
- AC cools but not as cold as it used to
- It has been several years since any AC service
What's included at CANPAK AUTO
- Performance and pressure test before service
- Leak check with dye or detector
- Evacuation and vacuum hold test
- Refrigerant and oil charged to specification by weight
- Vent temperature verification after service
Why this matters
Refrigerant does not get consumed. If a system is low, it leaked. Charging to the specified weight—rather than by gauge feel—keeps cooling strong and protects the compressor.

Air-Conditioning Recharge — questions we hear often
How often does AC need recharging?
A sealed system should not need it. Needing refrigerant every year or two means there is a leak worth finding.
Will you recharge a system that leaks badly?
No. Releasing refrigerant into the air is wasteful and we would be taking your money for a temporary fix. We will quote the repair instead.
Is recharge available same day?
Often yes when appointment capacity allows. Booking ahead is the surest way.
