Recharge The AC Freon In Your Car Or Truck
Your truck or car's AC system is almost completely airtight, but your freon refrigerant is always slowly leaking out. Eventually, a car will lose enough freon so that its air conditioning system will no longer cool effectively. At Long Hill Auto Service at 1905 Long Hill Rd we are ready to recharge your AC to help you keep your car or truck's cabin temperature cool.
"Help My AC Only Blows Warm Air!"New advancements in R134a freon systems means that freon in newer cars doesn't leak out as much as old R12 freon systems. The average new model economy car only leaks about 0.41 ounces of refrigerant per year. Come to Long Hill Auto Service in Millington when it's time to recharge your AC freon.
Long Hill Auto Service's Fast 3 Step Process:- Vacuum out all the old refrigerant before refilling it.
- Add new R134a refrigerant.
- Pressurize your car's AC system and test for mico-leaks.
Unfortunately R12 freon is no longer available. If your car or truck was made before 1994 you must convert your entire AC system to the new R134a standard. This involves replacing dozens of seals and several AC auto parts. R134a is a more highly pressurized and much more efficient refrigerant pound for pound than R12. Most classic car AC compressors and condensers cannot withstand the intense pressure required and choose to add about 25% less freon to accommodate older systems. This means your AC may not cool as well as it used to. Converting your R12 system to R134a is a big job so stop by Long Hill Auto Service today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right. Visit us today at 1905 Long Hill Rd.
"Is Used Freon Ok?"Many auto repair shops resell used AC refrigerant. The old freon is cleaned using a specialized recovery machine that removes contaminants. Used freon provided by Long Hill Auto Service works just as well as new freon after it's cleaned. Accepting used freon is a great way to help minimize the impact freon has on the environment.
Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your car's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Millington are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the car's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 908-647-7984 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 1905 Long Hill Rd and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

I can’t say enough good things about Long Hill Automotive. I brought my Ram in with some major shifting and electrical issues that had been giving me a lot of trouble. They took the time to properly diagnose the problem, figured out exactly what was going on, and got everything taken care of. What really impressed me was the level of service. After the work was completed, they actually called me to follow up and make sure everything was running properly and that I was happy with the repair. You just don’t see that kind of customer service very often anymore. Knowledgeable, professional, thorough, and they genuinely seem to care about their customers. My truck is running great, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I highly recommend Long Hill Automotive to anyone looking for a shop they can actually trust. Five stars all the way!!

I can’t recommend this auto body shop enough! We’ve brought all of our cars here over the years, and every single time the experience has been outstanding. The work is always top-notch, the attention to detail is incredible, and you can genuinely tell that this guy takes pride in what he does. What really sets him apart is the honesty, professionalism, and customer service. He treats you like a person instead of just another customer, keeps you informed throughout the process, and makes sure everything is done right—not just done quickly. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your car, but we’ve found that place. If you need body work, repairs, or anything automotive, do yourself a favor and bring your car here. You won’t regret it. Absolutely the best around! Nirio garcia, 08/27/2026 |
Excellent service. We came in with a puncture 10 minutes before they closed, while we were in the middle of a long road trip, and they got us patched up and back on the road very quickly. James Knight, 07/20/2026 |
