Cooling System Services

Complete Cooling System Care

Your cooling system does more than just prevent overheating - it keeps your engine running efficiently and helps extend its lifespan. At Christopher's Automotive, we provide full cooling system services from simple flushes to complex repairs.

Cooling System Flush

Over time, coolant breaks down and collects contaminants that can reduce cooling efficiency and cause corrosion. Our complete flush service:

• Drains old coolant completely
• Flushes system with specialized cleaning solution
• Removes built-up sediment and deposits
• Refills with premium antifreeze
• Pressure tests the system for leaks

Thermostat Service

The thermostat regulates coolant flow through your engine. A failing thermostat can cause overheating or prevent proper warm-up. We diagnose and replace faulty thermostats, ensuring your engine reaches optimal operating temperature quickly.

Water Pump Replacement

The water pump circulates coolant throughout the engine. Warning signs of a failing pump include coolant leaks, squealing sounds, and engine overheating. We replace water pumps with quality parts and ensure proper system bleeding.

Hose & Belt Inspection

Cooling system hoses and belts are critical for proper operation. During any service visit, we inspect all hoses for cracks, leaks, or swelling, and check drive belts for wear. We recommend replacement of worn components to prevent unexpected breakdowns.

Head Gasket Testing

Head gasket failures can cause serious engine damage. We perform compression tests and leak-down tests to detect internal coolant leaks that might indicate head gasket problems. Early detection saves costly repairs.
