Professional Air Conditioning Regas in Blandford & Shaftesbury

If your car’s air conditioning is blowing warm air, struggling to cool the cabin, or taking too long to demist your windscreen, it’s likely time for an aircon service.

A correctly functioning A/C system doesn’t just keep you cool in summer — it helps clear steam from your windows in winter, improving visibility and overall safety.

At DCM Autocentres, our Blandford and Shaftesbury workshops are fully equipped to diagnose, service, and regas air conditioning systems on all makes and models.

Why Is My Aircon Blowing Warm Air?

Warm or weak airflow is one of the most common aircon issues. This can be caused by:

  • Low refrigerant levels
  • Small leaks in the system
  • Faulty compressors
  • Blocked or damaged pipes/ducts
  • Electrical faults

Some fixes are simple, like a regas, while others may require a deeper inspection. Whatever the issue, our technicians will identify the problem and get your system running efficiently again.

What’s Included in an Aircon Service?

Our air conditioning service provides a full health check of your system, including:

  • Refrigerant level checks and regas
  • System pressure testing
  • Inspection for leaks and component wear
  • Temperature and airflow performance testing
  • Visual checks of pipes, seals, condenser and compressor

We make sure every part of the A/C system is working correctly — and if something needs attention, we’ll always explain the issue clearly before carrying out any repairs.

FAQs

Air Conditioning questions answered

What is an aircon regas?

Your car’s A/C relies on refrigerant to produce cold air. Over time, this gas naturally reduces, causing the system to lose efficiency. A regas restores the correct refrigerant level, helping your aircon cool properly again.

What does an aircon service include?

We carry out a complete inspection of your air conditioning system, checking pressures, refrigerant levels, seals, hoses, and overall performance. If we spot signs of wear or potential faults, we’ll let you know before any repairs are carried out.

How much does a regas or repair cost?

Aircon costs depend on the type of gas your vehicle uses and the condition of the system. For an accurate quote, simply contact our team and we’ll be happy to help.

Do you offer free aircon checks?

Yes — we offer a free air conditioning check. If we find a fault, we’ll discuss the issue with you and only proceed with repairs once you give the go-ahead.

    “5 star service, Tanya was the best. Came in for a last minute MOT. Failed as the exhaust back box needed to be replaced. Was shown the damage to the vehicle and told upfront how much it would cost. Well priced. Also booked in for Lanogaurd treatment for my car’s underside after seeing how rusted the vehicle is. Tanya was great at making me feel welcome and keeping everything running. Would recommend to anyone.”

    “Recovered my Car here with the help of AA due to a sudden breakdown (turbo boost pipe rupture). They ordered the OEM part and managed to sort everything out in 2 working days. Also, they effectively dealt with AA parts & garage team to proceed with my repair claims so I can claim it back. Friendly & professional people. Highly recommend them. Also, they do Lanoguard underbody rust proofing treatment :)”

    “I don't always leave a review for local businesses but credit where its due. I have taken my car to Blandford Heights Twice now for Service, MOT and some emergency work to fix an issues. Both times the staff have been helpful, friendly and my car was returned with the work done without any issues. I cant say they are the cheapest, but I think you all know that with cheap comes issues. They do the work well and they do it right. If that is what you want take my word for it .. they are a good garage.”

    “Excellent service despite being fully booked late into the afternoon. They ran diagnostic check on engine fault and replaced faulty fuel injector, all in about an hour. Thank you for fixing my car at short notice.”

    “Cannot praise these guys enough. I turned up without booking in because my battery warning appeared on my way to work. They identified one issue very quickly and then found another when sorting the first. They didn't bat an eye lid, and jumped to ordering parts. I was given a courtesy car so I could carry on to work that day. Because I'd just squeezed in I didn't mind it may take a while to fit my car in for repair, but to my absolute amazement it was ready the next morning and they had managed to find parts much cheaper than initially thought, as well as not needing one part so left as was. The whole team did a stellar job and I cannot recommend Blandford Heights enough!! I'll be going straight to them again for any problem and services. Thank you!!”
