Why You Need Your Car's AC in Winter

Snowflake

Did you know that your car’s air conditioning can come in handy during the winter months? No, we’re not talking about your ability to weather a sudden and highly unlikely heat wave in the middle of January. Instead, we’re talking about using your air conditioning unit to stay safe on the road. How does it work? Here’s how.
Essentially, your car’s air conditioning unit blows dry air. Turning on your car’s A/C on an especially cold day can defrost the interior of your car windows a lot faster than channeling in the moist outside air. But what if you don’t want to blast cold air into your face in the middle of one of the coldest days of the year? There’s an answer to that.
You can engage your car heater at the same time you engage your air conditioning. This will cause the cold air being blown in from the A/C to be heated up as it enters your car, thus delivering warm, dry air that will effectively kill two birds with one stone: defogging your windshield and warming up your frozen bones.
Does your car’s air conditioning unit need recharging? Have you been holding out until the warm weather returns? You might just want to skip the wait and head over to your local auto mechanic to get your A/C recharged right here and now. Not only can having a fully operational air conditioner save you precious time sitting in your driveway waiting for your windshield to clear up, but it can also keep you safe on the road if your windows suddenly fog over while you’re driving.
