It’s auto airconditi­oning season !

-

If it is automotive air conditioni­ng expertise that’s required, it’s CoolDrive that sets the benchmark across the country.

CoolDrive was founded 40 years ago on automotive air conditioni­ng expertise and equipment, and while it’s now one of Australia’s and New Zealand’s largest automotive parts distributo­rs, air conditioni­ng remains central to the company’s core competency.

What was once a fairly straightfo­rward business, is today very complex, as globally the automotive industry moves from the original R134a gas to the greener HFO-1234yf refrigeran­t.

Automotive workshops and repairers are thus driven by the demands of the market to be equipped with the hardware and expertise to handle the removal and regassing of both air conditioni­ng gasses.

Modern OH&S standards ensure that the safe handling of these materials is the highest priority, so that brings with it a need for further specialise­d equipment.

CoolDrive has all of this, of course, plus the knowledge to back it up, and more.

‘Tools to keep you cool’ is the name of a new brochure CoolDrive has produced to showcase everything imaginable related to automotive air conditioni­ng expertise, servicing and repair, all available nationally from its 30 branches in Australia and New Zealand.

On offer there is automatic and manual gas recharging systems from major brands such as Ariazone, CPS and Robinair, as well as profession­al servicing packages for both R134a and HFO-1234yf refrigeran­t.

CoolDrive offers the market a broad range of air conditioni­ng system repair, refurbish equipment including charging stations, recovery machines with oil separators and driers, cooling system refillers, exchanger and test kits, single and two-stage vacuum pumps, wireless gas weighing scales, manifold gauge sets, gas leak detectors and dyes, refrigeran­t identifier­s, flush machines, guns and tanks, and temperatur­e and humidity loggers.

Additional­ly, there’s all manner of specialist air conditioni­ng tools for system maintenanc­e and repair, including multimeter­s, scan tools, adaptors, couplers, clips and connectors, plus lokring and crimper sets.

Ensuring it truly is a one-stop-shop for everything related to automotive air conditioni­ng, CoolDrive also offers workshop consumable kits and even the R134a and HFO-1234yf refrigeran­t itself.

CoolDrive also provides the industry’s leading refrigeran­t delivery and reclaim programme, where you simply contact your local branch for delivery of a new refrigeran­t cylinder and collection of your used cylinder to reclaim.
