(Baonghean.vn) - Like all other parts, car air conditioners also need proper maintenance and use to maintain durability, ensure coolness and health of people in the car... Below are the tasks that need to be done when cleaning car air conditioners.
1. Clean the air filter

The air filter plays an important role in the air conditioning system. This part has the function of retaining dirt before the air passes through and is released into the vehicle compartment.
Cleaning the air filter is a fairly simple task. First, remove the front trunk on the passenger side, then take out the air conditioner filter; then use an air gun to spray the middle of the filter to remove the dirt. You can also use a deodorant solution to make the air filter cleaner...
If the air filter is too dirty due to long-term use, the car owner should replace it with a new one to use the air conditioner effectively.
2. Clean the condenser

The air conditioner condenser is a part with good durability, rarely broken down and requiring repair. However, over time, it also needs to be cleaned periodically for the air conditioning system to work well.
The simplest way to clean the condenser is to use water to clean this system. The car owner only needs to ask the technician to clean the condenser with clean water, or specialized chemicals, or can use compressed air to clean... To clean the condenser, the technician must have quite a bit of skill so as not to damage the engine compartment, especially the electrical system.

The evaporator has the function of cooling the air. When entering the evaporator, the refrigerant evaporates strongly, absorbing the heat of the evaporator and cooling the air blown through the evaporator to the vents; from there, the cold air is released to cool the car compartment.
In the past, cleaning the evaporator was quite difficult when you had to open the car dashboard, take out the evaporator and then clean it... Currently, most auto garages use the "endoscope" method. First, remove the air filter and air conditioner fan, the endoscope includes a small camera connected to a smartphone to easily observe the evaporator. Combined with the included cleaning and cleaning spray system, the technician can spray a specialized cleaning solution without much difficulty.
4. Add air conditioner gas

Air conditioning gas is an indispensable component of the car air conditioning system. Air conditioning gas is a refrigerant used in the system to absorb heat, with the task of carrying heat from low temperature areas to higher temperature areas... Depending on the function of each type of machine, use the appropriate refrigerant to ensure the air conditioner operates well and effectively.
If the air conditioner is low on gas, you need to take your car to a professional facility for gas refilling.
