La Jolla has one of the most coveted climates in the world. However, most of us still rely on our vehicle air conditioning during the summer, especially when traveling inland. Air conditioning service La Jolla provided by Pacific Automotive ensures the health and comfort of you and your family, as well as longer life for your A/C system.
Health Benefits of Air Conditioning Service
The benefits of servicing your vehicle air conditioning system go beyond just comfort. There are health benefits as well! Cleaning and disinfecting your A/C system removes microorganisms that can cause health and respiratory problems.
A strong, foul odor in your vehicle is the #1 indicator of mold in your A/C
Sometimes mold, mold spores or bacteria accumulate in the A/C system. But sometimes there is no odor, which is one reason regular service is always recommended.
Humidity, condensation, lack of air flow, or any water leakage inside the vehicle causes moisture which can lead to mold. Mold is a fungus that grows due to moisture, and will be surrounded by bacteria. The mold and bacteria contribute to the odor. They can cause damage to your air conditioner and your health.
The air that passes over the evaporator carries mold that enters into the passenger cabin through the A/C vents. The foul odor will then circulate throughout the car when the air conditioner is turned on.
Vehicle Benefits of A/C Service
Air conditioning service can assure that your A/C is functioning optimally. Not only will this provide greater health and comfort to you and your passengers, it will help the system last longer, Unlike your refrigerator, your vehicle can often require air conditioning service to maintain the appropriate level of coolness.
Therefore, we suggest having your A/C inspected every 1-2 years, especially if you keep it turned off for long periods of time like over the winter.
