June 2, 2019

Environmental laws in some around Powell require leaks to be repaired before refrigerant can be added.

This is because a given failure may be the result of another worn or damaged part that will, if not replaced, prematurely damage the new component.

Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Powell in Powell is fully equipped to restore your flow of cool air.
