    These terms and conditions are in addition to All Seasons Air Conditioning and Heating’s standard terms and conditions available on request. They cover areas specific to MVAC, (motor vehicle air conditioning) Service as carried out by All Seasons Air Conditioning and Heating.
    The Customer acknowledges that this contract exists exclusively between the Customer and All Seasons Air Conditioning and Heating.
    The Customer hereby confirms that he or she is authorised to request the Service detailed over and will indemnify the Company of any action by any other party or parties or any consequences of any action taken by any other party or parties with a legitimate claim to the vehicle.
    The Customer warrants that the vehicle presented for Service is legitimately in his or her possession and that the vehicle, where it is a legal requirement, is in a roadworthy condition and where appropriate is taxed, insured and is subject to a current Ministry Of Transport test certificate.
    The Customer agrees to use his or her best endeavours to keep persons, children and animals away from the area where the Service is taking place. The customer accepts that the Company may suspend or curtail the Service if persons, children or animals are in the vicinity of the vehicle.
    The Customer accepts that the vehicle is placed in the exclusive custody of the Company for the purposes of carrying out the Service and that they will not interfere in any way with the procedures of the Company whilst carrying out the Service and they will also use their best endeavours to stop, over whom they have control, interference by others. The Customer agrees to give the Company exclusive access to the vehicle up to the point where payment has been completed in consideration for the Service provided by the Company. The Customer agrees to pay on demand any moneys due in the means required by the Company.
    The Customer agrees to provide, at his or her own cost, sufficient fuel to complete the service and will not make any claim for fuel used in connection with the Service. The Company will not be held responsible for any loss, consequential or otherwise for a vehicle running out of fuel whilst carrying out the Service.
    The Customer confirms that, where the Service is to be carried out on premises other than his or her own that they have been granted full permission, by those in legitimate control of the property, for the Service to be carried out on the property. The Customer indemnifies the Company for any loss, consequential or otherwise incurred by the Company in any circumstance where Service is curtailed because the Customer has failed to obtain such permissions or any actions by others relating to such circumstances.

    The Company may suspend the Service at any time if, in the opinion of the Company, weather conditions make Service unsafe or impractical. In these circumstances, provided that the Service is completed at another time within 14 days of commencement, charges as detailed over will apply on completion. If the Service is not completed within 14 days of commencement then, at the discretion of the Company, the minimum call out charge, as over, will apply and no further Service will be carried out.

    ********************************

    Please note:
    Service is only available on vehicles with air conditioning/climate control systems suitable for R134a refrigerant gas. This information should be visible on a label fitted in the engine compartment. Most vehicles manufactured 1995 onwards should be fitted with R134a compatible systems. Earlier models may have been fitted with R134a compatible systems or may have been converted from R12. If a vehicle has been converted then there should be a label indicating that somewhere in the engine compartment. R12 is no longer available and if you want to use an R12 system that is low on charge then it will have to be converted to R134a. Conversion should be available from your dealer. If a vehicle is charged with R12 then it will not be suitable for Service by The Company.
    On some vehicles, when the air conditioning system/climate control system has been allowed to run very low on gas, the onboard computer will not allow the system to run, even though the system has been recharged correctly, until the fault codes that have been recorded have been cleared. This procedure may require specialist equipment and or procedures only available to your dealer and as such you may be referred to them for this work. Your air conditioning system/climate control system may have a fault or faults other than low gas that may be stopping it from functioning correctly or at all, even though the system has been charged correctly, and you may be referred by us to your dealer to have items, not covered in our service procedures, repaired. In either case any charges for work completed by your dealer or any third party will be at your cost and the price quoted for the service will still be payable in full.
    By their very nature leaks are unpredictable. Leaks can develop over years, months, days or seconds and a system that proves gas sound on a pressure test can develop a leak or leaks during or soon after charging with gas. The action of the compressor cannot be replicated by the use of nitrogen and therefore the customer acknowledges that the company will not, in the event of component failure, be liable for leaks and/or the resultant loss of the gas charge. The customer agrees that they will pay the price of the re-gas in the event of loss of gas charge in such circumstances.
    As we offer a mobile service we are not equipped with the necessary facilities or equipment to carry out major repair work. In some cases it may not be legal to carry out certain work in a public place.
    Whilst we will fit the correct refrigerant gas and equivalent type and viscosity of oils we do not generally use OEM supplied oils or gasses in our service procedures.
    All offers are subject to change without notice. Some elements of service work, for reasons of practicality or expedience may not be available to all models. Some areas of service work may not be applicable to all models
    It is illegal to vent refrigerant gasses to atmosphere. If, when servicing, it is discovered that the air conditioning system/climate control system has a significant leak the service will be curtailed until the leak has been remedied by your dealer.
    It is illegal to mix refrigerant gasses. If, when servicing, the gas within the air conditioning system/climate control system is found to contain gas less than 98% pure (excluding air) the service will be curtailed until such time as the system has been evacuated by the dealer.
    If your vehicle is under warranty you may invalidate your warranty if you employ the services of someone other than your official dealer to carry out work on your vehicle. If you are in any doubt then please consult your dealer or vehicle manufacturer.

    No part of these terms and conditions shall constitute legal advice - customers are advised to seek council from suitably qualified persons.

Please note (just to make sure):
It is illegal to deliberately vent refrigerant gasses to atmosphere.
It is illegal to mix refrigerant gasses.
Gas or oil removed from your vehicle cannot be put back into the vehicle.
In the event of the discovery of a significant leak the vehicle cannot be charged.
If your vehicle gas charge has lasted less than 12 months then it should be repaired prior to charging.
We are only able to carry out, at our exclusive discretion, minor repairs.
Our minimum call out charge is £35 (£45 evening and weekends) and is payable in the event that the service cannot be completed.
The company reserves the right to charge for waiting at £1.00 per minute (£1.50 evenings and weekends)
