Groove Technologies Launches Cool Car AC Performance Booster for Rapid Cooling

Groove Technologies LLC has announced the release of Cool Car AC Performance Booster, according to a press release.

The company claims the five-minute procedure will instantly improve vehicle air conditioning performance, delivering an average vent temperature drop of 12.1 degrees Fahrenheit, lowering cabin humidity and accelerating cooling, without adding refrigerant.

Cool Car’s proprietary thermo-conductive synthetic lubricant technology restores lost efficiency by addressing oil fouling inside the AC system. The treatment aims to improve heat transfer, reduce compressor friction and wear, and extend compressor service life. The service is compatible with both R-1234yf and R-134a systems, requires no AC certification, and uses a dedicated installation tool.

Since its soft launch and test marketing in 2025, Cool Car has expanded into nearly 500 quick lube locations, with take rates of 5-10% of car count, with more stores coming online in 2026. Operators are reporting strong customer demand, driven by peak summer heat and the fact that consumers are keeping their vehicles longer than ever.

Field reports have documented temperature drops as high as 29 degrees. One district manager reported a 22-degree drop during a store demonstration and said his team plans to make the service a key offering across their territory.

Cool Car AC Performance Booster is available exclusively to professional automotive service providers through a Groove Technologies partnership with leading automotive aftermarket distributor Service Champ.

“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, and 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.”
