Think of how you control heating and cooling in your home: Your HVAC system operates the flow of warmed and cooled air. Your vehicle’s heating and cooling system operates similarly, providing warmth and cooling for your comfort on the road. However, your car’s system is arguably more complex, and the stakes are high when a component fails. A good example of this is foggy windows. In your home, foggy windows are not much more than an inconvenience. On the road, a fogged windshield that you cannot clear can seriously hinder your visibility and put you at risk of an accident. This can occur if your defroster is unable to pull moisture from the vehicle to prevent condensation.
Your car’s heating and cooling system depends on permanent coolant—referred to as antifreeze—to operate. With a higher boiling point than water, permanent coolant prevents your vehicle from overheating. It contains lubricants and anticorrosion properties that protect your engine from chemical reactions. Rad Air Strongsville can maintain your engine with regular fluid exchange services. If your system becomes contaminated, we will perform a cooling system flush and refill. We recommend having your car’s heating and cooling system inspected during every Lube, Oil, and Filter change. The entire system should be serviced every 30,000 to 50,000 miles, or 3 to 5 years, or as needed to resolve an issue.
We perform thorough heating and cooling system inspections, checking for proper heating, cooling, airflow, belt condition, coolant level and condition, cabin airflow, and many more items that are unique to different car makes and models. During our inspection, we pay special attention to mode operation, which is critical for running the heating, defrosting, ventilation, air conditioning, bi–level, and recirculation modes of operation. If our team finds an issue with any component of the system, we will repair it thoroughly and ensure your system runs optimally.
