Tips and Tricks for Enhancing Auto Ac's Performance

• To ensure proper lubrication and to avoid gas leakage which results due to non usage for longer periods, operate the air conditioner for ten minutes (once per week and even in the winter season). This basically avoids the hardening of the rubber seals which results in the leakage.
• All windows must be properly closed to ensure effective cooling.
• Cars tend to get very hot when parked in sunlight. In such a scenario:

• Let the air escape through the windows first
• Maximum speed of the blower should be used to facilitate quick escape of hot air.
• When the temperature inside becomes equivalent to the outer one, close the windows and start the air conditioner.
• Now make adjustment in the temperature control and the blower speed as per your desired level of comfort.

• The air conditioner of the car carries the moisture from inside and pours it out on the ground below (same as we see with home air conditioners). So no need to worry if you see water beneath the car while the air conditioner is running.
• Condenser ensures effective cooling and therefore should be washed with water every month because a dirty one is non-conducive for effective cooling. Fortnightly washing of condenser is recommended in case of dusty conditioners.
• To ensure the appropriate gas quantity, check that the bubbles on the Dryers sight glass are appearing or not (under normal operating). If they do not appear, no refilling is needed and if they do, then refill your air conditioner gas.
• The enhance the effective performance and the life span of the air conditioner evaporator, shut down the air conditioner without shutting down the blower, a few minutes before you are about to reach your desired destination or before turning off the car's engine.
• To get warm and de-humidifying air, use your car heater and air conditioner in conjunction.
