IDQ Inc., the world’s leading manufacturer of automotive aftermarket air conditioning products, introduced a new product, ACP-400, a reusable long-length recharge hose and gauge that fits all standard R-134a refrigerant cans. 

The hose is two times longer than the hoses that come with most kits, allowing users to access low pressure ports that on some vehicles are hard to reach, with relative ease. In addition to the longer length, A/C Pro’s hose kit includes a 40-percent larger dial-in gauge for easier viewing and more accurate measurements when recharging a car’s air conditioning system.

The ACP-400 hose kit is compatible with all of A/C Pro’s existing standard R-134a products as well as those of standard R-134a refrigerant cans on the market.

“Recharging your air conditioning system is really as easy as filling a tire with air,” said Ken Motush, vice president of marketing for IDQ, Inc. “Our new kit is even easier to attach and get an accurate reading of your vehicle’s refrigerant levels. No matter what brand of refrigerant you use, our kit will surely make the job painless.”

Most mechanics generally charge anywhere from $50 to $100 per hour for their services, not including parts. This means an air conditioning recharge service often times costs more than $100. For less than $40, A/C Pro and its products allow owners to do the same service repairs; often in as little as 10 minutes from start to icy-cold finish.

The A/C Pro recharge hose and gauge sells for $24.99 and can be found at most leading auto parts retailers.  For more information on A/C Pro, locations to buy and a full line of A/C Pro products visit, www.acprocold.com.
