A/C sanitization
A/C sanitization removes the mould, bacteria and musty smell that build up in the system and recirculate inside your car.
What it is and how we do it
Moisture on the evaporator creates the perfect home for mould and bacteria, which cause that smell when you turn the A/C on. Sanitization cleans the evaporator and ducts with a proper antibacterial and antifungal treatment, without needless dismantling.
We also check the cabin (pollen) filter; it is often clogged and is the real source of the odour and reduced airflow.
Symptoms and when to come
A musty smell when the A/C starts, passengers sneezing or with irritated eyes, more window fogging, or weaker airflow. Regular sanitization is recommended, especially for allergy sufferers or if you carry children.
Why it matters and why Mr. Service
Beyond comfort it is a health issue: contaminated air goes straight into everyone breathing inside the car. At Mr. Service we use the right products, check the cabin filter at the same time, serve all brands, quote before starting and back labour with a 3-month warranty. We speak Portuguese, English and Turkish.
