Reset MBA to Factory Settings

I have an old broken Macbook Air I am thinking of getting fixed. If I do is there a way to do a factory reset of the OS. I know on some manufactures of PC's like Lenovo and Dell they make an image or the original factory default OS. Does Apple do something Like this? Just wondering?


Thanks
