These guys stand behind their word! My AC system leaked twice here because of a line issue(my fault) I had and they said as long as I fix the issue they would recharge my system within the month of my original service from them free of charge. Super helpful staff and nice owner, they started work on my car each time i came immediately. I would recommend calling in before showing up, these guys get busy sometimes.

Great shop!! This is my second time here. The first visit was to inspect the radiator on my 1990 Nissan. They found that half the radiator core was clogged and was causing the engine to overheat. This time it is to inspect the air conditioning of the same vehicle. They are going to remove the old r12 refrigerant, update and recharge the system with r134a. Solid crew of workers and will return. The biggest trick to his shop is the entrance, it is small and blends in with the others. I added a video of how I enter Art's

My first visit to Art's Radiator & A/C. I had no air conditioning due to a failure in the dashboard controls. These controls in my 21 yr old truck use vacuum that in my vehicle was clearly leaking. I went in to Art's very much wondering if I could find anyone who could fix the problem. My consternation was in part due to a previous shop that gave me a 3 week fix, charging me real money! After talking to Art & staff a few minutes, my confidence in achieving repair went way up!Amazing! Within 2 hours of dropping off the vehicle I received a call that the work was completed! They fixed the controls, brought the A/C fluid up to full charge, and removed the jury-rigged "repair" installed by the previous "repair" shop. All achieved at a reasonable cost. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this 5 star establishment!!

Referred by another a/c shop & I'm grateful they sent me to Art! They are knowledgeable and honest. Came in to replace fan switch, check out water leak inside of car and then needed my fan replaced. They kept me updated and all work was completed same day. Art was fair with the prices and even extended his network of mechanics to me if I ever needed auto repairs beyond what they do. It's an honest shop, come by and see Art.

Best radiator shop that helps you get the work done. The guys are great and Gera was with me throughout the process. Fixed it like a top. He also worked in my girlfriend's truck and it has been running great for more than five years now. I highly recommend this place for radiator and air conditioning repair.

I've been taking my vehicles to Art's for years. They do quality work at good prices, and always give an honest assessment without trying to push any un-needed work. They are my trusted mechanics for A/C, heater and cooling system repair and maintenance.

5 years ago I went to Art's and they fitted me with a new radiator for Chrysler Sebring LXi V6. The service was excellent - professional & friendly. 5 years later the fitment and performance is as new on a 25 + year old car!I will be visiting Art's again this morning - hoping they can work the same magic on the ac .

Was pleasantly surprised by the honest and clear appraisal of my situation. The work was done promptly, Art showed me all the parts that were replaced and the old parts taken out of the car. I felt that was in very good hands and would not hesitate to recommend Arts radiator and air conditioning again. Very fair prices!

Good job at Art's radiator shop, he welded my custom aluminum radiator, I called 10 radiator shops and no one could help me, but only him got my radiator fix and welded, highly recommend, hes been doing radiator and A/C since 1980. Thanks

Just needed a fitting for my radiator because it was damaged. Looked for it everywhere and couldn't find it. Not only did they help me look for the piece; when I asked how much it was they said anything is fine. Excellent service. Will definitely come back when I need them.

Took my vehicle to someone else, and they took two hours to diagnose what could be wrong. Luckily I went here for a second opinion. Art is the A/C subject matter expert. He pinpointed my A/C problem in less than 20 minutes. His flat rate is a steal. His staff are friendly. The location is difficult to find. You'll probably drive pass it. Don't waste time with DIY bottles that (really isn't the right way to refill/fix the A/C), aren't really saving you much anyway, and can cause more issues later. Get the job done right by real professionals with accurate equipment, not a bottle with a gauge. The nice touch is that Art gives you a thorough breakdown of what he found, what he will do, and then later what he actually did. A++++

The technicians here are knowledgeable about AC and radiators. I took my Subura Outback here twice for an AC issue and both times the problems was fixed. The prices are very reasonable also. This place is my go to for AC/Radiator issues.

Took the radiator of my mustang its been 3 months and its now leaking he was trying to charge $189.00 when he had previously told me $89 so I refused to pay that amount just for a radiator flush he then stated oh its because i did this and that when no.one told him to supposedly he did nothing anyhow he lowered the price to 129.00 after I told him I wasn't paying 189.00 I told him for n extra 20 I could of bought a brand new 3 core aluminum i said it makes no sense to do this service at this amount so long story short I had to go to the atm to get more money when I came back he said well I don't know how long the radiator will hold up it could be a few months it could be a year in my head I was like he just told me everything was good that the radiator was like brand new and blah blah I go to the atm and come back and all of a sudden he dont know how long the radiator is going to last thats shaddy has hell and well like i said radiator leaking will never recommend or return to this place he seems like a nice old man will smooth talk you then get you beware
