Why Air Conditioning is very important
In scorching hot weather with temperatures soaring up to 40 degrees Celsius, one thing that becomes incredibly important is the car’s air conditioning system. If your car’s AC is malfunctioning or not cooling in such extreme weather conditions, it can be quite uncomfortable. Opening the car windows may not be a good alternative because it not only lets in the intense heat but also exposes you to unwanted odors and the health risks of PM 2.5 dust particles. Today, G.P.Auto Parts brings you tips on how to maintain your car’s air conditioning system.
7 Tips for Car Air Conditioning Care
- Before starting the engine, it’s advisable to turn off the AC every time. This prevents the compressor from immediately engaging. Let the engine warm up a bit before turning on the AC.
- If you start your car in the morning, it’s a good idea to turn on the fan without activating the A/C button. This helps expel moisture from the AC system, and you can later turn on the A/C to reduce any musty odors and extend the lifespan of the AC unit.
- Avoid setting the temperature too low as it can put excessive strain on the compressor. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable level.
- If your parked car has been in the sun for an extended period, it’s a good practice to open the windows and let the hot air escape before turning on the AC. This helps cool down the car faster.
- Avoid frequent window openings as it can let external dust and particles into the car’s AC system.
- When approaching your destination, consider turning off the A/C before reaching there and just use the fan. There will still be some cool air left in the system, and this practice reduces the workload on the compressor and helps expel any remaining moisture.
- If your A/C is not cooling effectively or not at all, it’s advisable to have a qualified technician check for refrigerant leaks. A malfunctioning A/C can lead to a refrigerant leak, and prompt repairs are essential.
Maintenance:
- Inspect the AC system every 3 months or every 5,000 kilometers.
- Ensure proper refrigerant levels and top up as needed.
- Check and clean the AC filter to remove dust buildup.
- Inspect the A/C belt for wear and tear.
- Clean the AC unit every 2 years.
