Car AC Tips:
Car air conditioning (AC) is no longer a luxury; it has become a necessity, especially in India’s hot weather. But many car owners do not know how to use the AC panel properly. Wrong usage not only reduces cooling but also affects fuel efficiency and engine performance. Experts suggest a few simple tips and tricks to get the best results from your car’s AC.
The AC compressor runs on the car engine. If the AC panel is not maintained properly, the engine takes extra load, which increases fuel consumption. Studies show that improper usage can reduce mileage by 10–15%. This means you spend more on fuel and also compromise on car performance.
A common mistake many drivers make is keeping the fan speed on maximum, thinking it will cool the cabin faster. In reality, higher fan speed only increases airflow, not cooling. The best method is to set the fan speed to medium and adjust the temperature settings instead.
The perfect cooling temperature for most cars is between 22–24 degrees Celsius. Setting the AC below 20 degrees puts more pressure on both the engine and the cooling system, which reduces efficiency. Keeping it in the recommended range ensures comfort without extra fuel consumption.
Most people direct the AC vents towards their face. However, experts recommend adjusting them towards the upper part of the cabin. This way, the cool air circulates evenly, and the whole car cools faster.
Another useful feature is the recirculation mode. Switching it on prevents hot air from entering the cabin and allows the already cooled air to circulate inside. This reduces load on the AC system and cools the car faster.
