In South Florida, a failing air conditioning system turns every drive into an uncomfortable experience. Drivers in Wilton Manors and Fort Lauderdale rely on Vertical Automotive because we diagnose A/C problems properly — not just recharge refrigerant and hope for the best. Our technicians test compressor function, check for leaks using electronic detection, inspect condenser and evaporator performance, and verify electrical controls before recommending any repair. Whether it's a refrigerant recharge, compressor replacement, or evaporator repair, we use quality components and restore full cooling performance.
Have your A/C system inspected every 12–18 months, ideally before summer. Warning signs include weak airflow, warm air from vents, unusual odors when the A/C runs, moisture on the windshield when using defrost, or clicking and grinding noises from the compressor.
A properly functioning A/C system keeps you comfortable, prevents windshield fogging for safer visibility, and protects interior components from heat damage. Addressing small leaks early prevents compressor failure — one of the most expensive A/C repairs.
