Whenever the AC is operating, it not only cools, it dehumidifies the air. The moisture in the air condenses on cold surfaces inside the evaporator case. Most of this moisture drains harmlessly out of the system through the AC drain tube.
However, some of the moisture remains on surfaces after the AC shuts down. This lingering moisture combines with pollutants and microscopic contaminants that are naturally present in the air. The growth of these often occurs behind the dash, in the vents and in the evaporator case. The more humidity, the worse it gets. This causes an unpleasant odor. If the AC is not used as often then this can also cause the growth of bacteria and mold.
The next time you turn on the AC system, you will encounter this musty odor.
One way to solve the problem is to keep your AC unit as dry as possible by running it with the compressor off shortly before you arrive at your destination. This will allow some of the condensed water to drain off the AC evaporator surfaces and accelerate the drying process.
Most of today’s vehicles have cabin air filters typically located behind the glove compartment or under the hood or dashboard. Its job is to filter all of the air that comes through the car’s HVAC system to prevent pollutants, such as dust, pollen, smog and mold spores from entering the passenger compartment. If dirty, the filter can be full of mold, bacteria and other odor producing microorganisms which, during AC operation, forces the smell into the vehicle through the air intake. Follow Manufacturer’s recommendations found in your owner’s manual or check with your service professional to replace the cabin air filter in order to prevent excess dust and mold from entering the vehicle.
Tips for preventing air conditioner odor: avoid parking under trees to reduce the possibility of leaves entering the air intake; use the fresh air setting on your climate control rather than the recirculated air setting whenever possible to allow the evaporator to dry out and drive on paved roads whenever feasible as dust may accelerate the condition.
Consult your local LEAKPRO® Representative. LEAKPRO® has the knowledge, the tools and the proprietary products to eliminate the odor, not just mask it for a few weeks. LEAKPRO® uses various techniques and chemicals which are EPA rated and safe for the environment.
For the following smells see your Professional Service Provider Immediately;
If you smell gas every time you turn on your car’s AC system, your car may have a gas leak. When you turn on your AC unit, the gas smell can be brought into the vehicle through the fresh air intake. You need to repair the leak. There are several areas where your service professional can check for a gas leak, including inspecting the fuel pressure regulator of the engine. They can also check the fuel injector “O” rings in the engine compartment. It is advisable to check your exhaust system for any holes.
If the cooling system in your car smells sweet, then you should have your AC system checked immediately. The sweet smell is often caused by the toxic liquid, ethylene glycol (coolant). This smell is the result of a leak in the cooling system. The leak can originate in the heater core, pipe or hose, coolant housing unit or radiator.

I recently discovered a leak in my trunk and was referred to Leakpro by a coworker. I was impressed by their prompt response and quick turnaround. They sent someone out right away. The price was very reasonable as well since I was expecting to pay a lot more at a dealership and wait much longer to have the issue fixed. I recommend Leakpro to anyone looking for quick, reliable, and effective service. Done right the first time.
I am extremely happy with the service that Jesse at LEAKPRO provided. After doing an analysis of what was causing the various leaks in my vehicle's roof-he explained what was wrong, what needed to be done and a quote for the cost. He was very knowledgeable, professional and worked extremely hard to fix all of the problems. Afterwards, I went through a car wash and was so relieved there were no more leaks. Don't waste money by going to a place that "might" be able to fix a leak - go to LEAKPRO and have it done properly.
Jesse demonstrated LEAKPRO are truly professionals in their field. The repair was done in early September and my vehicle has gone through periods of heavy rain since it is parked outside. It's now mid November and I am happy to report that the floor has remained dry! Thank you Jesse once again!
Amazing service called in was able to explain what issues I was having with my car. I was able to book an appointment pretty quick, the guys were very professional even was able to take me to a nearby coffee shop while I waited. They were able to find the leak and was able to fix it the same day. Now my car is leak-free!
They stopped the leak in my near new F150 I was a little taken back by the final price however 1 year later it still dry.
Thank you for the 5 star rating! We�re glad to hear you were happy with your service!
Alex was very friendly and accommodating! The gap from booking to getting the car back was about 36 hours. Very impressive turn around time and great communication.
LEAKPRO® fixed my car in 10 minutes and didn't even end up charging me since it was such a simple job. Top notch service, I ended up bringing by a box of donuts just to thank them!
Quick and effective, they come to you and diagnose the issue. Jesse helped me out big time. He identified the issue, solved it, and tested everything afterwards to ensure the problem was dealt with. Took about an hour and a half for everything. Treated everything with care, and on top it�s very affordable. ______

I had a back window/brake light leak on my ram 1500. Called Mike @ Leakpro and he told me this is a very common issue with rams. came out and fixed it for me very pleased with his service and professionalism and would highly recommend his service to anyone that has any leak issues with their vehicle.
Jesse was easy to deal with and fixed the leak in my RAM 1500 cabin within an hour of getting on site. Communication was clear, professional and the work has thus far been solid - no more leaks after 3 months. Price was more than fair. He even cleaned the water stain on the headliner. Would recommend.
I had a frustrating water leak inside my Nissan Murano which was coming from my sunroof. I contacted Mike and he was very responsive and knew what the problem was right off. Within a couple of days he came by my house and fixed the problem then and there and it's been 6 months and I haven't had a leak since. I would highly recommend LEAKPRO for any issue related to water ingress in your car.
