Air Conditioning & Refrigerants


Automotive Air Conditioning Refrigerant Supplies For Committed DIYers

You just made it home after a long drive on a hot summer day, and as you are unloading all the groceries, sports gear and furry passengers from a day running errands, you notice a puddle of liquid under your car. A little leaking water is a normal function of a vehicle's air conditioning, especially in humid weather conditions. In fact, an automotive air conditioning system is designed to pull moisture out of circulating air to drain. But, if your A/C system is expelling an excessive amount of liquid, then you have a problem that needs addressed right away. Dip a clean rag in the puddle under your vehicle. If the moisture on the rag is colored or has an odor, then it most likely isn't water. It could be leaking A/C refrigerant. If your family van or commuter sedan is leaking freon, you must stop it before the cooling system runs dry and fills with moist air that will corrode your expensive A/C components.

If a thorough attempt at A/C leak detection shows no signs of a split hose or a leaky valve, but your coolant is low, it is time to tackle refrigerant A/C car care to prevent overheating. A consistent supply of an A/C refrigerant car chemical is vital for keeping your vehicle's air conditioning system running smoothly. And the experts at NAPA know that restoring your A/C system's cooling capabilities is one of the most complex and labor-intensive repair projects for any car, truck or SUV. It takes a skilled DIYer or professional mechanic to properly charge automotive air conditioning systems and achieve an accurate coolant fill in an A/C system.

NAPA offers an extensive range of A/C refrigerant for cars, specifically designed to meet the demands of modern air conditioning systems. We recommend buying a can with a self-sealing valve to preserve refrigerant for multiple uses so that you can maintain the ideal pressure level in your vehicle for optimal performance. From high-performance automotive A/C refrigerant to automotive chemicals suitable for older car A/C refrigerant systems, NAPA Auto Parts makes it easy to find the right match for your make and model. Shop top brands like Avalanche, B'laster and more, which offer A/C chemicals that are compatible with most hybrid and electric vehicles. Whether you need a specific A/C refrigerant for cars or a universal option for an entire commercial fleet, our inventory ensures high-quality and reliable solutions for complete peace of mind.

Before topping off your A/C refrigerant levels, take the time to detect and fix leaks in an A/C automotive system. To be honest, finding the leak in an automotive air conditioning system is a time-consuming, complex process that requires technical tools and ability. Still, it is important to know how to spot the signs of common A/C leaks in cars, so that the repair can be addressed before further damage or a real emergency occurs. In your box of recharge tools, make sure you have an A/C leak detector kit that includes A/C stop leak or an A/C refill can with UV dye.

For at-home mechanics, NAPAonline sells A/C recharge kits for a convenient way to recharge your air conditioning system in the driveway or carport. These user-friendly kits include everything necessary to quickly restore your vehicle's cooling performance. Keep your vehicle's air conditioning system running at peak performance with our wide selection of premium refrigerants and A/C recharge kits.
