SCRS Quick Tip: HVAC Consumables
In this video from the Society of Collision Repair Specialists, Barry Dorn of Dorn's Body and Paint and Jason Hauboldt of I-CAR break down key consumables every repairer should be aware of when it comes to servicing HVAC systems in modern vehicles from desiccant to O-rings, and the importance of sourcing OEM-approved parts.
They highlight the consumables required to properly maintain service machines, including filters, vacuum pump oil, and refrigerant identifiers. Understanding and replacing these consumables at the right intervals helps ensure system reliability, protects businesses from costly comebacks, and guarantees that vehicles perform as they should after repairs.
The video was filmed at the I-CAR Training Center in Appleton, Wisconsin.
