Car AC Repair in Puyallup: What to Know About Washington’s Refrigerant Ban

posted on 8/26/2022 10:30:49 AM
For many Puyallup residents, summers mean more time behind the wheel and extended family road trips. Without a fully functioning AC, the car cabin can produce oven-like temperatures with you and the passengers baking inside. Be sure to get your vehicle checked for car AC repair in Puyallup.
 

Signs of a Failing Car AC

Your AC will give you indicators that it’s on the brink of failure. This includes:
  • Stuffy air – even with the AC on full blast, the air may feel hot
  • No or little air – you may feel little to nothing emitting from the vents. This could stem from a number of issues, from a blocked air intake to a blown fuse.
  • Unusual noise – if you hear banging or rattling, you may have a worn compressor clutch. There may also be an obstruction in the vent.
 
To ensure a healthy AC system, schedule AC servicing as part of a summertime routine checkup. This includes a checkup of the tires, brakes, fluids, etc. 
 

The Washington Refrigerant Ban

Washington state enacted Bill 1112, or the HFC Reduction Bill, which went into effect on January 2020. This bill bans the sale of hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), a substance found in AC refrigerant and has been labelled by the EPA as an “ozone-depleting” substance.
 
What does this mean for you as the car owner? If your vehicle contains HFC refrigerant, you don’t need to do anything. The bill bans the sale of HFC, not its use. There’s no need for car owners to be concerned. If you have AC issues and a refrigerant leak, our auto repair center will use refrigerant in accordance with state and federal laws.
