The company said the Cool Car AC Performance Booster delivers an average vent temperature drop of 12.1 degrees Fahrenheit, lowers cabin humidity and speeds cooling without adding refrigerant.
The proprietary thermo-conductive synthetic lubricant is designed to address oil fouling inside the A/C system. According to the company, the treatment improves heat transfer, reduces compressor friction and wear, and may extend compressor service life. The service works with R-1234yf and R-134a systems, does not require A/C certification, and uses a dedicated installation tool.
Cool Car AC Performance Booster Field Adoption
The Cool Car AC Performance Booster has expanded into nearly 500 quick lube locations. Dealers have reported take rates of 5% to 10% of car count. Operators report customer demand driven by peak summer heat and longer vehicle ownership, now averaging more than 12 years on the road. Stores also report additional revenue and repeat visits.
“In my career, I’ve rarely seen a product get this kind of reaction from the field,” said Joe Farr, sales director for Groove Technologies. “Technicians are excited to sell it. Store managers are telling us about customers who’ve left five-star reviews on their Jiffy Lube location websites. In some cases, brought in their second or third vehicle the same day to have the service performed. When you have both fast lube operators and customers this happy, you’ve got a winner.”
Field reports document temperature drops as high as 29 degrees, according to the company. Customers have commented that their A/C feels colder after treatment. One district manager reported a 22-degree drop during a store demonstration and said his team plans to position the service as a key seasonal offering during an expected warm summer across much of the U.S.
Pairing with Cabin Air Filter System
The Cool Car AC Performance Booster can be paired with Groove Technologies’ Qik-FIT Premium Universal Cabin Air Filter System. The company said the combination allows operators to offer an A/C performance package.
The Cool Car AC Performance Booster is available exclusively to professional automotive service providers through a Groove Technologies partnership with Service Champ.
