A/C service for South Reno drivers: Longley Lane, 5 minutes

South Reno is the closest neighborhood to any of our service centers, about 5 minutes from Longley Lane, and the A/C service there begins with reading the system pressures, not with adding refrigerant. We recharge low systems that hold pressure and refer leaks and failed parts to an A/C repair shop.

South Reno drivers spend summer weekends going up the Mount Rose Highway to the lake, and the climb from the valley floor to the pass in the heat of the afternoon is the hardest test an A/C gets around here. The compressor runs flat out while the engine works hard on the grade. If the air goes warm on the way up, the system is telling you something, and our Longley Lane service center is about 5 minutes and 2.4 miles from 89511 by OSRM routing.

The grade and the heat

The Reno-Tahoe airport averages a 93.9 F high in July and a 92.1 F high in August (NOAA 1991-2020 normals). Leave South Reno at that temperature, start up the mountain with a full car, and a slightly low system or a weak condenser fan shows itself quickly. It may cool again near the top as the air thins and cools, which can hide the problem until the next trip.

How we test it

  1. Tell the technician when it goes warm: on the grade, at idle, after twenty minutes.
  2. We read the underhood label for the refrigerant type and charge weight.
  3. Gauges on, engine running, A/C on maximum.
  4. Pressures and vent temperature recorded; belt, clutch, condenser and fittings inspected.
  5. Recharge to the label weight when low and holding.
  6. A leak or a failed part gets an honest referral to an A/C repair shop.

R-1234yf is common here

The 89511 ZIP has a median household income of $124,130 and 2.08 vehicles per household (Census ACS 5-year 2024), and plenty of those vehicles are recent models that use R-1234yf, the lower global-warming refrigerant the EPA lists as the R-134a replacement. It uses dedicated equipment and a precise charge. We have the machine, and we fill to the label.

Five minutes away

What a customer said

Reno South

One of my least favorite things to do is get my car smogged. It’s not a difficult task, but it feels inconvenient every year. This was my first time getting a smog here and it was absolutely painless! I was in and out within five minutes. The tech was very professional, And their location is really easy to get in and out of. I will definitely be back!

Questions people ask

Still have a question? Call your service center or drive in; there is no appointment to make.

My A/C goes warm going up Mount Rose. Is it low?

Possibly, or the condenser fan is not keeping up. The pressure readings tell us which.

Is a recharge the same as an A/C repair?

No. A recharge refills a tight system. A leak or a broken part is a repair, which we refer to an A/C repair shop.

Do I need to call first?

No. Drive in; there is no appointment system.
