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 Pete B Service Inc at 376 Middle Country 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 Pete B Service Inc in Middle Island when it's time to recharge your AC freon.
Pete B Service Inc'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 Pete B Service Inc today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right. Visit us today at 376 Middle Country 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 Pete B Service Inc 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 Middle Island 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 631-924-9292 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 376 Middle Country Rd and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

I was looking around for a classic Volkswagen specialist to restore my original 1968 Meyers Dune Buggy for quite a few months. I checked out places as far away as upstate New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island . I finally came across Pete B service after someone I met told me there was a great group of classic VW specialists at Pete B in Middle island . After going down to there shop and meeting Dirk and his crew I knew they were the right guys to work on my classic VW They did a fantastic job restoring my dune buggy. When I purchased my car it was sitting in a warehouse for over 35 years and needed everything. Dirk, Rich and Tom replaced parts when needed and rebuild the steering, brake system, fuel system , complete wiring harness and installed an engine I purchased for the car. It now runs and looking amazing!! Their attention to detail is top notch. The work was completed on schedule and to the original quoted price. As a bonus , Dirk the shop owner raced sand rails and is involved in off road racing. So he knows how to assemble your ride for on and off road use I highly recommend Pete B Service . If you have a classic VW I would not go anywhere else. 5 stars
I have a 1974 VW Karmann Ghia that Dirk has done work on. I would Not trust it to Anyone Else! He is a perfectionist with the work he performed and the care he takes with my VW classic Car. Peter B of Middle Island is the Best!
