Many Wakefield cars live outside on narrow streets through the winter, and road salt works on A/C condensers and aluminum lines the same way it works on brake lines.

Wakefield Questions About A/C Repair & Recharge
- Can road salt cause an A/C leak?
- Yes. The condenser sits at the front of the car and its thin aluminum fins and tubes corrode over salty winters. A corrosion leak usually shows up as A/C that gets weaker over time.
- How far is the shop from Wakefield?
- About 15 minutes via Route 129 west to 779 Woburn St in Wilmington.
