How Does Car A.C Work? by autoremedy365: 3:06pm On Nov 15, 2022
How does car a.c work? If you've ever wondered how air conditioning works in vehicles, here's a basic rundown: Air conditioning helps cars stay cooler in hot weather. As hot air passes over a radiator, heat travels from the air into the liquid coolant. Cold refrigerated liquid is pumped through a sealed line into the evaporator. The evaporator then turns back into a gas and is recycled by being pumped back into the compressor. It's a chain reaction that starts with an engine-driven belt known as an "A/C clutch."

If the air in your car never seems to get cold enough, you may be tempted to add more coolant to the system on your own.

If the air in your car never seems to get cold enough, you may be tempted to add more coolant to the system on your own. However, it's important not to do this without following proper precautions. The first step is checking your owner's manual for any specific instructions about adding extra coolant. Some manufacturers have a recommended amount that should be added, while others just warn against overfilling the container.
If there are no instructions in your owner’s manual or online resources from your car maker, then follow these steps:
• Open up the hood and locate the reservoir tank where you would normally fill up with water (usually marked as “Coolant Tank”). This tank should be located next to other liquids such as transmission fluid and brake fluid (brake fluid is usually green).
• You might need some type of funnel or measuring cup if filling up directly into this tank doesn't work well for you, but try not using too much so it doesn't spill out when closing everything back up again!

How hot does it have to get before you start to turn the dial toward ‘cooler’?

It depends on the car. If you are driving in a hot climate and want to stay comfortable, the temperature should be set slightly higher than if you were driving in a colder area. If your car has air conditioning, it's important that the temperature is set properly so that the system doesn't overheat and turn off or break down.
It's also important to note that some vehicles have separate thermostats for heating and cooling, which means they can maintain different temperatures at the same time. For example, some vehicles allow people to keep their windshields clear while still being able to cool off by turning up their A/C vents instead of having both systems working at once.
