(Home) aircon & coolbox

Hi, Just had my air-con regassed and converted to R134a gas Air con works quite well in the front but seems to be less efficient in the back also the cool box does,nt seem to cool at all, could this be due to insufficient gas in the system ie, weight or volume i was wondering if the system would work less efficiently if the wrong amount of gas was put in ,not knowing much about the subject any infomation would be appreciated.

Regards
Mal

Have a read through Ace Answers, the editors comments are very good.
Or get the A/C service to revisit, what weight of gas did they put back in?

Yes he/you should have tested all 3 before parting with money. IIRC the system takes 1450g with coolbox. For a typical car, he would have put in 900g. If you've been short-changed then that could be the problem.
