Fitting A/C to a non-A/C 850

Hello Simon,

Thanks very much for your input.

Let me ponder on what I'm letting myself in for.

I will contact your man re the new evaporator to check the cost.

I'll also have a good phone around to check on cost of a fresh aftermarket install.

Would you think said aftermarket system would offer 'all year round' use?

Thanks.

Phil

For anyones info I e-mailed several companies re my A/C install interest and just got off the phone with a good chap in Kent who sent me the following. Note the comment re the evaporator which I brought up in conversation:

Many thanks for your enquiry and our conversation this evening. Just to
confirm, the installed cost of Diavia air conditioning for your 1992
Volvo 850 Estate is GBPounds 1,195.00 + v.a.t., installed here at
Edenbridge (M25, J6 + 20 minutes south-east) over the course of three
days. The warranty is one year unlimited mileage excluding accidental
damage but, because of the quality of the system, we usually take a
relaxed view of any problems which occur within a reasonable time of the
warranty expiring. I confirm that the evaporator core is copper.

Comments please.

Phil
