POWERFUL AC TOOLS

Snap-on says it makes Air Conditioning service and repair a ‘breeze’

With summer only just around the corner, workshops are getting ready for “air-con” season.
Having said that, for modern vehicles running climate-controlled HVAC systems, the air-con system is actually running consistently, seeing air conditioning services spread more evenly across the year.
Even so, those 40-degree days which can’t be too far away will surely test the growing number of vehicles on our road. Snap-on says now is the time to make sure you have the correct equipment to tackle the season.
In the world of refrigerants, there has been a continuing transition from R134a to 1234yf in new vehicles.
As the new gas becomes more common, it is time to consider an auto-station designed and set up for the 1234yf refrigerant: this season, Snap-on Tools offers the Breeze IV and Blizzard QTECH IV.
Both are fully automatic air-conditioning service units; and with a growing database of vehicles on our roads, the Breeze and Blizzard units are said to be perfect for any level of expertise in the workshop. Indeed, Snap-on states that from the apprentice to the Master Tech, completing an air-con service will be a breeze.
Sold and configured in your selected refrigerant formant of either HFO-1234yf or R134a, these units are among the most modern air-conditioning service and re-gassing units on the market, says Snap-on, with both units designed to make the job quicker, easier, and more profitable.

Blizzard QTech IV
The Blizzard QTech IV is Snap-on Tools’ most advanced air-conditioning service unit, available in either R134a or HFO-1234yf models.
Features include Wi-Fi connectivity, a 7.0-inch colour touchscreen, 3.0m hoses, and a 12-litre refillable refrigerant tank.
This automatic recovery and charging station offers a unique hybrid functionality that supports electronic driven compressors and includes the option to pressure test with forming gas or dry nitrogen.

Breeze IV
Snap-on Tools says the Breeze IV is its best value for money air-conditioning recovery and recharge unit, with the option of R134a or HFO-1234yf models.
The Breeze IV also includes the latest Australian vehicle database, including agricultural machinery and trucks, with the option to manually enter specifications.
Snap-on Tools says its Breeze IV and Blizzard QTech IV take the hard work out of AC service and repair as truly powerful tools for any workshop.
