Trusted by drivers from Reepham and across Norwich & Norfolk. Our Ber Street garage serves the whole Norfolk area.
Reepham drivers cover 14 miles of B-roads to reach Norwich, passing through north Norfolk lanes where summer heat, hedgerow dust and limited shade make cabin comfort essential. Flint lanes and ungritted roads are tough on vehicles, and the air conditioning system is no exception. We carry out a complete regas with gas recovery, vacuum testing, UV dye and a recharge to the correct refrigerant weight for your particular vehicle.
Reepham is a rural market town on the B1145 in NR10, and drivers covering the mid-Norfolk B-road network in summer will know how warm the car becomes on longer rural runs with the sun at a low angle through hedgerows. Agricultural and trade vehicles operating in the Reepham area also have air conditioning systems that are rarely serviced until they fail completely, which is exactly when demand for a cool cab is at its peak.
We regas R134a and R1234yf systems with a full recover, leak-test, vacuum and recharge, including UV dye on every service. From Reepham, take the B1145 or B1149 south-east into Norwich and follow signs to Ber Street, NR1 3ES, approximately 12 miles. Call 07933 900901 to book your air conditioning regas appointment.
The older cars common around Reepham often run R134a refrigerant and, after years of slow loss, cool weakly long before they are booked in for it. The 12-mile run via the B1145 fits easily around a Norwich trip. We identify the right gas, vacuum-test for leaks and recharge to specification so the cooling genuinely returns rather than fading again within weeks.
The drive from Reepham is worth it for a proper professional regas. We test, vacuum and recharge your system correctly rather than guessing.
For drivers making the regular Reepham to Norwich commute via the B1145, a properly recharged air conditioning system reduces driver fatigue on warmer days and provides reliable demisting in autumn and winter. We recommend a regas every two years to maintain efficiency on a system used regularly across a 12 miles north-west commute.
We carry out a full air conditioning service using dedicated A/C equipment. The process begins by recovering any remaining refrigerant, then pulling the system into a vacuum to check for leaks. If the vacuum holds, we recharge to the manufacturer's specified weight using the correct refrigerant, either R134a for vehicles registered before 2017 or R1234yf for newer models. UV dye is added to assist with any future leak detection. The full process takes 45 to 60 minutes.
For Reepham drivers, we recommend an air conditioning service every two years. If your system blows warm air, produces a musty smell on start-up, or runs the compressor continuously without cooling to the set temperature, it is likely due for attention. A working air conditioning system also supports the demister, making it a practical safety item in autumn and winter as well as summer. Call 07933 900901 to book.
The 12-mile B1145 trip suits the older Reepham cars whose R134a systems cool weakly after years of slow loss. We leak-test and recharge to spec; combine it with a Norwich visit.
Most systems need a regas every 2-3 years as refrigerant gradually permeates through seals and hoses. If your AC has stopped cooling effectively or takes longer than usual to reach temperature, it likely needs a regas.
Around 45-60 minutes, including the leak check, refrigerant recovery, vacuum test and recharge to the correct specification.
Yes, we pressure-test and vacuum-test the system before recharging. We can also add UV dye to the refrigerant that makes any future leak source visible under UV light.
A flashing or illuminated air con warning light usually indicates the system has detected a fault, which can range from low refrigerant to a failed component. Bring the car in and we'll diagnose the fault and advise you on what's needed.
Yes, we carry out air con regas on all makes and models of petrol and diesel cars, as well as most vans and SUVs. We carry both R134a and R1234yf refrigerant, covering virtually every vehicle on the road today.
