Do you know that on an average, the temperature of a car can reach up to 130 degrees F when left under the sun? Without air conditioners it becomes very difficult to sit in the car specially during summer months. This makes car air conditioners all the more important feature that should be there in various automobiles. Be it winters or summers, car AC make us enjoy comfortable driving experience in all weathers.
When it comes to car AC maintenance, just like air conditioners at homes, they need regular servicing. Following are some tips to ensure your car air conditioners stay in good working condition:
- Know about the parts of the AC: The user manual of your car contains all details regarding each and every component of the car, including the air conditioner. It makes you know about all the parts of car air conditioner like the compressor, evaporator, hoses and belts. These parts tend to wear out at very soon and need to be replaced when required. However, no parts of the AC collapse all of a sudden. So keep a regular check on the working of the AC.
- Servicing at regular intervals: The professionals at the servicing centers make a thorough inspection of your car AC and ensure that all its parts are working smoothly. The level of its refrigerant is checked and hoses are also checked for leakages or hardening.
- Don’t keep AC unused for long: If you do not use the car AC for a long period of time, its hoses may get hardened. It is very important to run the AC once a month for at least 10 to 15 minutes to maintain the coolant pressure.
- Dry out evaporator core: It is also very important to dry out the evaporator core after using the car AC for a long duration. Run the car’s defrost to ensure that accumulated moisture is cleared out. This helps in avoiding any bad odor in the car.
