A/C proper usage

[nori]

for me its:

1> turn on engine

2> turn on blower

3> if mainit sa loob, open windows for a minute or two.

4> turn on the compressor, via thermostat. walang a/c button yung fx eh.

i do this to let the engine spray itself with oil, so when i activate the idle up system via thermostat its less wear and tear.

pag ioff naman engine, off muna compressor via thermostat pagdating sa bahay then off ng blower then engine after parking the vehicle. opening the gates, vehicle entry, gates closed, that takes a minute at least. by that time tuyo na evaporator. =)

its more of taking care of the engine (start up) and the vehicle itself (iwas amoy mabaho/kulob).

I turn on the A/C (fan and compressor) even on cold-starts. The extra load will actually speed up the engine warm-up. Also, the slightly elevated idling will help increase oil pressure to get them moving.

hindi ba ito masama?

I see no reason. The only thing to remember is, dapat mag idle-up. If by turning on the compressor, the extra load is instead dragging the engine to a lower RPM when the engine is still cold, then stop doing it.

Assuming your ac unit is working perfectly,kelangan bang I palinis at kung yes,kelan dapat,yearly,2 years?

[crazy_boy]

Mga newer cars Hindi na dapat nag cleaning ng ac system. Kaya may cabin filter na. Para mafilter yung mga dumi. Just change the filter every so often. Kaya usually baklas dashboard na mga cars ngayon kung kailangan mag cleaning. From design niya kasi filter changes nalang dapat.

Kabitan ng turbo timer ang blower, para pag off mo ng engine ung blower running pa din ng ilang minutes

Saan mas malakas ang effect ng fuel consumption, Sa high thermostat adjustment to cool, Yung high fan or both. Thanks.

i believe the power drain in running the compressor, outweighs any electrical drain the fan motor can think of.

basta naka engage ang compressor malakas effect sa fuel consumption

that speeding up the warm up is being done already by the thermostat of the cooling system at no extra load... adding excessive load on cold engine waste fuel and might cause engine damage

Depende sa design ng AC system. Nowadays on climate controlled cars (digital AC), compressor is always engaged whenever you turn on the AC button. Several temp sensors monitors cabin temp and adjusts the blower fan depending on the temp setting. Once the cabin reaches the desired temp, fan speed is reduced. If you want to save a bit of fuel, just use the fan mode (blower on, compressor off).

The simpler aircon design which is till found in cars like the Vios uses conventional cycle on and off depending on the temp setting. Just like and old fridge. This design is more economical, although less refined.

I had the same problem on my Honda civic .My air conditioner was blowing hot air for a long time I understood that u should turn out and was necessary to blow out the entire system and renew the freon in the cooling system of the pipes. I decided not to bother and contacted the company http://www.airconservicingsingapore.com/ for repair all types and models of air conditioning from domestic to industrial A/C.
