Air Conditioning and Climate Control System Repair in Capitol Heights, MD
With the temperature skyrocketing in the Capitol Heights area during the summer months, it’s important to be ready by repairing your vehicle's climate control system. Fortunately, we’ll get you prepared for this heat spike when you visit Pohanka Honda in Capitol Heights to speak with our expert advisors. In the meantime, you can comb through this overview to learn more about the advantages of taking this path with our team.
Climate Control System
Before we discuss the red flags that will appear when your CR-V, HR-V, or Pilot needs attention, let’s address the purpose your climate control serves. Otherwise known as the HVAC, this key feature supplies heating, ventilation, and air conditioning while you complete your daily treks down Highway 4. To function, refrigerant is condensed beneath the hood, then converted into cool air before being thrust into the cabin through a blueprint of fans, tubes, and vents. It’s important to know that the heating and cooling systems work independently, so even if you experienced warmth during the winter, that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to regulate your body temperature during the summer. That’s why we suggest visiting us once per year during the springtime for an inspection.
Warning Signs
Since there isn’t a strict timeline with climate control system failure, it’s imperative that you’re aware of the symptoms that your Civic or Pilot will exhibit. Have you noticed poor airflow when your HVAC is activated? This could mean a variety of things, so it’s important to visit our Service Department as soon as possible to check if the A/C fans are spinning at the proper velocity. Are your temperature controls not functioning as intended, but oxygen is still circulating throughout the interior? You might be low on coolant, but thankfully, our team can quickly top off your car’s reservoir to get you back on your adventure to Rollins Avenue Park. Lastly, if you smell a pungent odor filling your cabin, then this means your cabin air filter is clogged. It’s important to get this resolved as soon as possible, because debris can impact your allergies and quality of air.
Repair
Are you ready to restore your car, truck, or SUV’s climate control system to its former glory? Allow us to discuss the logistics of the process so you can hit the ground running when you walk through our doors. When you arrive, our factory-trained technicians will pop the hood and inspect the mechanics to ensure that there aren't any leaking hoses or broken fan blades. If there are malfunctions happening, we’ll swap the broken products with genuine parts that are specifically designed for your car. On the other hand, if everything looks fine physically, we’ll take a look at your refrigerant levels and refill the tank if necessary. Lastly, we’ll check out the compressor and air filter and provide replacements if necessary. Are you ready to get started? Schedule an appointment!
