R744 is the technical name for carbon dioxide (CO₂) used as a refrigerant in newer vehicle air conditioning systems. Unlike older refrigerants such as R134a or R1234yf, R744 operates at much higher pressures and requires specially designed components - it is not compatible with older systems. Many newer models from manufacturers like Volkswagen, Audi and Mercedes-Benz now use R744, particularly in electric and hybrid vehicles.
This refrigerant has become popular for its strong environmental credentials - it’s non-toxic, non-flammable, has zero ozone depletion potential, and a global warming potential of just 1 (compared to 1300+ for older gases). That makes it the most eco-friendly choice on the market.
Our R744 air con regas service includes:
We use the latest equipment specifically designed to handle R744’s high pressure safely and efficiently.
Even with cutting-edge refrigerant technology, R744 air con systems still need periodic servicing. Over time, small leaks or natural loss of gas can reduce performance. If the system isn’t working as efficiently as it should, it may be undercharged – which puts strain on the compressor and reduces cabin cooling.
Getting your R744 system regassed restores:
Because R744 runs at significantly higher pressure than older systems, it’s even more important that the system is checked and maintained by trained professionals with the correct equipment. GT Service is one of the only independent garages in the Harrogate area offering full R744 servicing – saving you a trip to the main dealer.
Whether you’re driving a new EV, hybrid or high-efficiency petrol/diesel model, regular R744 servicing keeps your air con working as it should and ensures your vehicle stays as eco-friendly as it was designed to be.
Not sure if your vehicle needs a regas? Here are some common symptoms to watch for:
Any of these could point to low refrigerant levels or a fault in the system. If your car uses R744 and it’s been a few years since the last service – or you’re unsure if it’s ever been regassed – it’s worth getting it checked.
