What we do
All servicesAir conditioning specialists who also handle everything else
Most shops treat A/C as a side job they would rather not take. It is the work this business was built on.
A/C Repair & Recharge
Automotive air conditioning is what we have done longer than anyone around here. Cold air, done right the first time.

Ownership is passing to Tommy Pelletier
The Pelletier family opened these doors in 1924. Ownership of the shop is currently transitioning to Tommy Pelletier — same location, same standards, same answer when you ask whether a repair is really necessary.
A century in one trade, in one neighborhood, means we are not going anywhere. If something we fixed is not right, you know exactly where to find us.

This shop came highly recommended from a member of the staff at 'NAPA Auto Parts' as a good place to get Auto AC Lines fabricated while you wait. Paul and his crew took my damaged line and quickly came up with a workable replacement. The pricing and workmanship make this place an excellent alternative option for AC Lines that are no longer commercially available.

Paul is a great guy with a really great personality. My Jeep Patriot's A/C let go and needed to be replaced. Paul and his mechanic did an excellent job and Paul went above and beyond my expectations. With costs being so high now-a-days, everything is expensive. However, the work that was done (and knowing it was done correctly) was worth the cost. I will continue to have RJ Pelletier service my vehicles for not only A/C issues but for any of the services they can provide for my vehicle. Thank you so much Paul. You earned a life long (and appreciative) customer.

Auto Air Pelletier Inc helped design and fabricate a custom A/C setup for our prototype kit car. It works great! Thank you Paul!!
