Good.

They are always available in groupon to select in different places nationwide if anyone dont know where to buy a cheap bargain.
Some of them will do service or repair as well for under £25.

Use ACDMOFF5 for £5 off

£25 in Dartford (£20 with code)

good deal

A good price, as long as you expect them to try and drum up some other business while they have you on the premises.

how long does the re-gas takes and what does it involve and do you also ave to pay for workmanship which is separate from the £20 -£25 re-gas charge?

It's a good deal but I would advise against going to large chains for specialist jobs. Use local mobile air con technicians - I've had my air con serviced and recharged for £25 in front of my house.

Saying that, I've spent about £3000 on repairs at Formula One over the years...

Excellent...booked for £15!!!!

Can anyone recommend in Northants that will either come to me or I go to them for £25?

thanks for that. 45mins is not bad at all :smiley:

I had my air con done in january at formula 1... it worked at the time, but now its not working... I guess they forgot to tell me the system had a leak.

They don't test for leaks for as long as they should and more often than not use uncalibrated machines. The mechanics are usually jack of all trades, master of none. I went with a defective air con and they said we are not sure where the leak is from but we'll still charge you for one hour's labour. Mobile mechanic came in, found & fixed the leak and recharged all in 55 minutes for the equivalent of one hour's labour at Formula One: £56 (forums are full of similar complaints + see comment #13). Mobile air con technicians are much more experienced in dealing with car air con systems and have very competitive rates.

why do you need to do it. I have never done one since I got my licence.

thanks for replying, sound like a very good deal then :smiley:

And there lies the problem. You cannot successfully test a pressurised system under vacuum. A proper air con specialist will pressurise the system to check for leaks. Many air con leaks are caused by old seals letting by under pressure, a vacuum will suck them back in plugging the gap for the test. As soon as the system is pressurised again it will leak.

I used to use f1 regularly but the one I used had really gone down hill. So I don't use them anymore. Sorry OP.

Rotherham Parkgate? Coming up at £39 for me - I took it as far as the PayPal payment screen.

Dartford Showing 39£ as well ..

COLD... hopefully

I thought I was getting a deal paying £20 cash at my local ats. Great find especially as not via group-on or the likes!!

Had mine done yesterday , tbh a good service and none of up-selling i was expecting.

Pity i didn't spot that voucher though, could have saved a fiver!

mine are all coming at £45 :disappointed:(
