AC repair in Tucson

We have a leak somewhere in the dash Ac system. Looking for a decent AC shop that can handle a DP motorhome. RV dealers are hopeless when it comes to AC. Truck dealers can do it but the few in Tucson charge $135 an hour when working on motorhomes! Thanks

In our times A/C is much easier to work with. The chems you put in to detect leaks and black lights used to find them. I've seen guys fix leaks with brazing rods and a small MAPP torch.
4 whopping cylinders on Toyota RV's. Talk about great getting good MPG. Also I have a very light foot on the pedal. I followed some MPG advice on Livingpress.com and I now get 22 MPG! Not bad for a home on wheels.

Check with a Thermo King shop if there is one. I had both the selling dealer (Tom Johnson in NC...before CW bought them) and them Country Coach in Oregon 'repair' a leaking fitting on my dash AC system. Neither of their fixes lasted more than 6 months.

Took the coach to a Thermo King shop and those guys know AC systems and have the equipment to fix them right.

Thanks for the replies. I like mobile repair guys for a lot of problems but not with AC If you are in a decent shop they can make up hoses on site. With a mobile guy he has to take the hose off and take it somewhere. I didn't think th mobile guys have the machine that empties the Freon and does a leakdown test. They can then reinstall your Freon. With the long hoses on a DP finding a leak can be a pain!

You might try A-Mobile RV Repair, 520-235-2220. Hear they're really good. Do you have Good Sam, they might have a local provider as well.

Yes, mobile guy is the way to go.
Local auto repair shops can do it too.

X2 on the mobile tech. The problem with MH A/C repair is that you are paying for the real estate you are cluttering up when your coach is in the shop. PM your email and I'll send you a Denso R/V dash A/C manual on the chance that is the system you have.
