Motuzas Automotive & U-Haul: Your Truck or Car's AC System
At Motuzas Automotive & U-Haul we understand how your AC system works. Your car or truck's AC system uses a Freon gas type refrigerant for cooling. For automotive applications, Freon is refined into tetrafluoroethane, a non-toxic, non-flammable and non-corrosive gas called R134a. The ability of the refrigerant gas to change its physical properties into a liquid as it is compressed and condensed keeps you cool on hot summer days.

If your AC system starts blowing warm air come by the store at 162 Milford St and talk with one of our auto parts specialists to determine what parts you need to get your AC working again.
Your AC compressor is the auto part responsible for compressing the refrigerant R134a. When it is compressed it becomes very hot. Because hot is the opposite of what drivers want in an AC system, the refrigerant must be cooled.
R134a is cooled by your car AC condenser. This auto part is a series of coils that look very similar to a radiator. Just like a radiator, outside air passes over the condenser to remove the heat from the compressed gas. It is then condensed into a very wet cold liquid. The receiver-drier absorbs excess moisture from the liquid. Next, your AC filter traps debris within the liquid that can cause clogging in your car's AC system. Call 508-529-2450 today and let our auto parts specialists help you find the right compressor, condenser or receiver drier to fit your car or truck.
At this point, the refrigerant liquid is still under too much pressure. The expansion valve and orifice tube take over and force the refrigerant to change from a high-pressure liquid refrigerant into a low-pressure liquid refrigerant mist before it enters the evaporator.
As the low-pressure liquid refrigerant mist flows through the evaporator, a blower motor pushes air across the cold tubes of the evaporator and cooled dry air flows into the passenger compartment of the automobile. The accumulator is a holding tank for the refrigerant as it exits the evaporator. While the refrigerant is circulating inside, the accumulator removes any moisture that may be present.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Highly recommended. My wife and I have taken our cars there for years and Bob (owner) is excellent. We don't trust easily, but we trust Bob and his shop.
I drove almost 4 hours to buy a motorcycle nearby and was planning on renting a trailer from here to tow it back up to Vermont. My Jeep wasn't properly equipped and the gentleman absolutely saved the day by wiring a harness in about 15 minutes, free of charge! You just don't see service like this anywhere anymore.
Again cannot reiterate what a wonderful mechanic and business owner Bob is. With the help of his mechanics he doesn't miss a thing. Just had my breaks done an oil change and rear lights replaced. Couldn't be happier with the job done. Never leave the shop unhappy. Aside from the stellar mechanics Bob also has a wide variety of top quality used cars, you can always find a diamond in the rough on his lot! In addition the opportunity to utilize the U-haul business is a great opportunity for the local community.
Motuzas is the best car service place that I have dealt with. They are very responsive and I trust them with any advice they have given us. We purchased a car from them as well and it was a great experience. 5 stars!
