Lower The Windows Before Switching the Aircon On - Should this be the practice?

[Yatta]

thanks for the replies. however, the real reason I'm asking is - have you heard of that case (played/told on the video) re: cancer-causing agents?

I believe the video also told that there are still cancer-causing agents even if not parked under the sun (for e.g., at night). hence, at night, the windows should be open by the time you switch on the AC.

what do you think?

Then it doesn't matter whether you turn the aircon on or off or open or close the windows?

What i heard is its the adhesive they used for the interior thats causing it. But it was never really proven.

Another way to quickly cool down the cabin is to “fan out”.
-open passenger window
-open driver side door, open close several times (without latching the door)
- repeat five times

Works well for me

Everything everywhere has carcinogens. From the food you eat to the air you breathe, but in very minute amounts which can be eliminated by the body in time. So if carcinogens are your reason to ask, then I think it wouldn't matter. I'd be bothered more about the heat in the car than those carcinogens

This. Everything is so overblown nowadays.

This Benzene-in-parked-cars scare is 10 years old, maybe more.

Opening all doors will vent out the hot air quicker ... including the rear hatch if there is one ...

[dr. d]

it depends.
anong klaseng hangin ang nasa labas?
if the cooler air outside is dirtier than the hot air inside, i wouldn't open my windows and/or doors, just to vent out the hot air. i'll let the aircon take care of the temperature gradient.
