Today was a interesting day to be repairing and servicing car air conditioning system in perth i went out to look at a Mazda 3 and the car aircon was blowing warm air so i carried out a car aircon service to find the shradder valves were faulty so i did the aircon regas and replaced the valves and it was then happily blowing cold air
Car air conditioning in Perth problems are often caused by refrigerant leaks that need to be found before the system is regassed. CMM Automotive attended a Mazda in Butler after the owner noticed the air conditioning was no longer performing correctly.
Testing the Mazda’s A/C system identified a refrigerant leak from the high-pressure Schrader valve.
Mazda Air Conditioning Leak
A vehicle’s air conditioning system should remain sealed. If refrigerant levels become low, it is important to find out why.
The Mazda had developed a leak from the high-pressure service port. Further inspection identified the Schrader valve as the source of the problem.
Schrader valves are small components located inside the A/C service ports. They allow air conditioning equipment to connect to the system for testing and servicing.
When a Schrader valve fails to seal correctly, refrigerant can slowly escape.
Finding the A/C Leak Before Regassing
Simply adding more refrigerant would not repair the leaking valve. The Mazda could lose its refrigerant again and eventually stop blowing cold air.
This is why proper leak detection is important.
CMM Automotive’s Mobile Car Air Conditioning Perth service includes testing and diagnosis for many common A/C problems.
Finding the leak first allows the faulty component to be addressed before the system is correctly serviced.

A leaking Schrader valve may be a relatively small fault, but it can eventually affect the entire A/C system.
This Mazda in Butler is a good example. Testing allowed us to locate the high-pressure Schrader valve leak and identify the cause of the refrigerant loss.
If your vehicle’s air conditioning is becoming warmer or losing cooling performance, CMM Automotive can investigate the problem at your location.
Correct diagnosis can help prevent unnecessary regassing and identify the actual cause of poor car air conditioning in Perth.
