A/C Compressor Repair andReplacement in Batumi

A/C compressor repair at PRO SERVICE (Batumi, Airport Highway 212): we find out whether the compressor itself has failed or its clutch, controls or system pressure are to blame. Then we repair the clutch, rebuild or replace the compressor and flush the system. Replacement labor from … GEL, time 1 day.

Signs of a failing compressor

• The A/C blows warm; the compressor clutch does not engage, or engages and drops out.
• Humming, whining or knocking from the compressor with the A/C on.
• Belt squeal or slip the moment the A/C switches on.
• Oil on the compressor body.
• Cold while driving, weak at idle in traffic.

It is not always the compressor

A compressor will not run if the refrigerant is low: the pressure switch blocks it to protect it. A fuse, relay, pressure sensors or a broken wire to the clutch can also be the cause. So we start with A/C diagnostics: pressures, the clutch signal, fan operation. The compressor is replaced only when its failure is confirmed.

Repair options

• Clutch repair: when the pulley, bearing or clutch coil is worn but the compressor is healthy. Usually the cheapest route.
• Compressor rebuild: new seals, valves, bearings. Not possible for every model.
• Compressor replacement: new or remanufactured, when it has failed mechanically inside.

When a compressor breaks up inside, metal debris spreads through the whole system. A new compressor in a dirty system fails quickly. So with it we flush the circuit, replace the receiver-drier and the expansion valve or orifice tube, add the correct oil and refrigerant … by weight. On hybrids the electric compressor needs a special oil that must not be mixed with the regular one.
