REPAIR OF HOSES FOR CAR AIR CONDITIONERS
We repair hoses of the air conditioning system of imported passenger cars (AUDI, BMW, CHEVROLET, FORD, HONDA, HYNDAI, MAZDA, MERSEDES,
OPEL, MITSUBISHI, NISAN, TOYOTA, VOLKSWAGEN,...)
If the air conditioning does not work on your car and the repair specialist has issued a verdict that the hose is to blame, you have three options for resolving this issue:
1. Buy a new hose. This option is the most ideal, but also the most expensive. If the car is rare or was produced, for example, for the Asian market, be prepared for the fact that the hose, for unknown reasons, may not fit.
2. Buy hose from disassembly. At the same time, it is necessary to be aware that the hose is a consumable material and its resource is limited.
On average, this is 5 - 10 years or about 100 thousand kilometers. The resource of a hose can be more or less. And by appearance it is impossible to determine when the hose will leak.
3. Hose repair. This is our main specialty. Here we have achieved excellent results. It is on the repair of the hose that I want to dwell, describing this process in more detail.
Repair is carried out by replacing the hose. Tubes and fittings remain standard.
Within reasonable limits, changes to tubing configurations and hose extensions are possible.
Very often, especially on SUVs, we replace tubes with hoses.
This is due to the fact that the secondary circuit pipes are laid under the car body and corrode during winter operation. Alternatively, such a pipe can be welded:
I personally saw a tube with five welding points. We securely connect the hose to the tube, replacing the problem areas of pipelines with a hose.
In order for the hose repair to be successful, the following recommendations must be observed:
1. Dismantle the hose on your own or at a service station.
2. When dismantling the hose, it is necessary to strictly maintain the geometry of the hose (pipe reversal), because after repair, it will be impossible to deploy the tubes.
3. Hoses are accepted for work in a clean state.
Hose repair time takes from 30 minutes to 1 hour, provided that there is no global mechanical damage.
