Scorching heat inside the car

[vincent9999]

Hello,

Ask ko lang kung meron bang way para hindi tumagos sa loob ng car ung init pag nakabilad sa araw? Parang sauna kasi eh. Thanks!

V-Kool V40 series tint would help. Will cost you 30-50T depending on vehicle.

Mainit talaga sir specially pag direct sunlight mo naparada. Sakin maghapon bilad both front and rear windshield may heat deflector na, parang sauna pa din.

What I do pag safe naman sa pinarkingan ko open 4 doors para labas mainit na singaw then mga after 2mins pwede na. Mainit pa din pero kaya naman na ng aircon. Bagong linis din aircon ko kaya mabilis lumamig.

1. Buy a good window tint (full)
2. Buy window visor (para pwede mo i-open ng konti ung window mo at ng makalabas ung init.
3. Put your AC to fresh air

4. Hanap ka ng shaded area to park.

get a roof over your parked car, sir. nothing else works effectively.

Covered parking ang solusyon diyan boss. Napakainit dito sa atin.

Sir does this tint have lesser vision during night time? Thanks!

[RC-V]

palagay ka na din ng heat insulation sa roof.

[povillo]

palagay ka na din ng heat insulation sa roof.

Puede kaya yung insulation na ginagamit sa roof sheets? or may specififc na pang kotse? Magkano inabot ang cost mo jan sir?

[jakewise]

pareho lang ang insulation ginagamit sa bahay at ang nasa pic ni RC-V, it comes in different thickness lang. May binebenta ang Ace Hardware nito and mga upholstery stores. I believe it is sold by meter

V-Kool V70 is clear, V40 is lighter than medium. If you want something more affordable but still with good heat rejection, try V-Kool K-series tint.

walang solution dyan eh..... hindi kakayanin yan ng tints specially kung direct sunlight ka nakapark.

among the things that are alternatives:

a) buy a car cover.
b) park in the shade.
c) if you have a window visor, leave an inch opening sa windows para makasingaw lang yung init.

Greenhouse effect. Even if you have the most expensive tint or roof insulation, it will only buy you several minutes before the heat starts building up.

For example, if you have two identical cars with one treated with good tints and insulation, it will take a bit more time to warm up the interior of the treated car. This is effective only if you leave it in the sun for a few minutes. But if you leave both cars bathing in the sun for an hour or the whole day, both cars would be equally hot inside by the time you get to it. And ironically, the treated car would retain the cabin heat much longer than the untreated car long after the sun has set.

Tints and insulation will only slow down the heat transfer, not stop it. As many have mentioned, it can't replace a covered car park or garage.

any tint will diminish vision at night.
some might counter, as per their experience, that it does not.
well, that may appear to be under ordinary conditions. but in extraordinary conditions, which, i daresay, we can not predict when they will happen, the diminished ability will make itself known, often with disastrous results.

That being said, is it the best thing not to use tint on your windshield( or atleast just use tint at the bottom and top portion of it)?

[oj88]

In some countries, and for good reason, it is illegal to put tints that are darker than 70% and/or having a VLT lower than 90% below the AS1 line. This line is typically 4-5 inches from the upper edge of the front windshield. Though, it can vary slightly from vehicle to vehicle. You can put a strip of tint of any shade above this line, but only tints specified above are typically allowed below the line.



There's an optical difference above and below this line. The quality of the optics below this line has better clarity than the part of glass above the line. In contrast, side windows including the rear windshield is only rated AS2 (some are even AS3) which are typically of lower clarity. Hence the importance of the front windshield's AS1 area as this is what any driver use to operate the vehicle 99% of the time.

[Walter]

^^^ Actually, you can tint front windshields as long as VLT is 70% or higher.

[oj88]

Yeah, about that. I read that the tint's VLT should be 90% if using it below the AS1. At least, that is the DOT standard, as is most our own standards are roughly based on.

*Edited my previous post.

[dr. d]

actually, a number of states in the USA allow front windshield tints, with at least 70% light transmittance.
but a number of states allow absolutely no front windshield tint, except for the top 5 or 6 inches..
what is the phillippine regulation? i don 't know.. marcos forbade tints among the common tao during his reign...

BTT:

Aside from getting good tints, try to check your Aircon if its working properly. The quality of refrigerant can also be a factor. The difference of the cooling is almost night and day. Parang brand new car yung lamig.

Just for reference, on my mom's car with ordinary tints, no problem kahit bilad. It can cool down the cabin in a few minutes. This car was recently serviced sa casa using original freon. While on my car, AC was serviced sa Banawe using ordinary freon, its cold but not frigging cold.
