Car Aircons and oil based car fresheners

[mazingerZ]

Mga People,

Is it an urban myth that using oil based car fresheners (like myshaldan and the like) will eventually damage your aircon?I have several friends who have advised me not to buy these types of car fresheners coz the oil particles will eventually ind itself inside the aircon's internals thus damaging it in the long run.

Hope someone could confirm or debunk this myth.

Myshaldan Strawberry scented fresheners remind me of someone in the past kasi. :naughty2:

^^^ Yup, no question about the scent of these shaldans ambango talaga! but the problem is it’s material, wax is so sticky that when it zips into the evaporator, tiny dusts that could easily pass through this will definitely drawn in and trapped for good.

if these are really true, how come manufacturers are keeping mum on this?
*maz: ano na naman yang naaalala mo ha?

[forbiddensmoke]

ano po ba yung oil based car fresheners? yun pong matigas yung sa loob? tapos nauubos pag naluluma na?

[mazingerZ]

Yep. Myshaldan is a prime example of this. SM Bonus also

it's proven. numerous shaldan / wax based freshners user in the past can attest to this... wax particles can clogged /accumulated the a/c evaporator that can diminish the a/c's cooling power.

newbie lang po ako dito. kung ok lang po, gusto ko lang mag-share ng idea about the topic...

my analysis lang po... since oil-based (wet-type) yung freshener, mas madaling dumikit yung alikabok. pag dumikit yung alikabok & oil combi sa evaporator, di madaling maaalis & eventually masisira yung evaporator

Mga sir how about the dehumidifier na nabibili sa mga handyman etc? yung nakalagay sa plastic containers na umaabsorb ng moisture....

Nakakaabsorb din ba eto ng bad smell?

Tried it and true na nagaabsorb ng moisture pero don't know bout the bad smell kase amoy yosi auto ko

FYI...MAS mura mga dehumidifier sa JAPAN surplus shops sa mall.. 88 pesos lang for 6 pcs yun.. mas tipid

on my case I dont use car air freshner anymore... and totoo na mag build up ang dirt sa cooling coil, nag paayos kame ng friend ko kay mang mario, may california scents 2 pcs at isang ambi pur ang friend ko..ask namin why barado ang cooling coil at hina ng lamig. DAHIL DAW SA MGA CAR AIR FRESHNER NA YAN...dinako gumagamit ng kahit anu...pag may date mag spray nalang ako ng 212 sa kotse at sa body ko...hehehehe

sayang diko nakunan ng pics yung cooling coil grabe sticky at prang may mga putik pa...sana ginawan ko ng video next time gagawan ko talaga...

and ang mura kay mang mario P700 lang...kakagaling lang ng tropa ko sa honda casa sabi malinis pa daw aircon nya after 1 month ayaw na lumamig ayun pinakilala ko sya kay mang mario! tapos nawala ang problema nya! at wla pang isang oras tapos na agad ni mang mario

yung P700 labor at freon na yan! napakamura...kaya mag bigay tayo ng tip sa mga bata ni mang mario...

peace...

may nagsabi sakin maglagay ng uli sa loob ng kotse if di nyo ginagamit absorbent daw kc ang mga uling (charcoal) if gagamitin na ang kotse tanggalin na ang mga uling (charcoal)

yung mga ionizer kaya ok ba yung mga yun? medyo mahal mga P950 pro mukhang ok eh

[X-isle]

so does this say na mas okay gumamit ng mga hindi oil/wax based na fresheners?? like ung pine tree na sinsasabit or ung mga california scents na organic air fresheners?? kasi california scents gamit ko eh...
