As the days get longer, the sun shines brighter, many of us look forward to the

excitement summer brings us. Traveling for vacations and outdoor adventures is not

always the topic of discussion. Alongside it brings us the scorching heat, days of

dehydration, and moments of exhausted energy. Especially if you are on a roadtrip with

your family or friends, while your car starts to become a portable sauna. That is why the

importance of recharging your A/C can be crucial in these moments. It can cause a

change in comfort and potentially your health.

Comfortability: Driving with the windows down and music blasting with the sun shining

is one of the core moments we experience as people. But what happens when that

outside air is no longer comfortable, it slowly starts to be hot and tolerable. Your steering

wheel is hot, and if you have leather seats and wearing shorts, it begins to stick to your

skin. And your only thought is hoping the metal clip on your seat belt does not graze

your hand. You close your windows and turn on your A/C only to be unsatisfied. You

start thinking to yourself, ugh I should’ve listened to that one article I read and got my

A/C recharged.

Safety: In those heated moments, the Sun’s UV Rays shine so bright and hard your

interior feels like the inside of a volcano. These high temperatures can lead to

dehydration or heatstroke. Potentially even fatigue. All of which are extremely

dangerous inside or outside of a car. You don’t want to be operating a 2 ton pound of

machinery and potentially risk your life or those around you.

Peace of Mind: Your A/C compressor is the heart of your A/C system. When you get

sick, your heart pumps your body with white blood cells and begins to work overtime,

your blood pressure rises and you begin to get so hot, you might even catch a fever.

The same goes for your A/C system. If your A/C is not blowing cold air, or mediocre cold

air, it causes your A/C compressor strain and stress forcing it to work harder than it

should. This can result in malfunctioning of certain components which can lead to a high

cost in repairs. Getting your A/C recharged can help you and your mechanic so he can

check your system and make sure everything is running smoothly.

Environmental Concerns: When an A/C system is charged, a machine sends a

cooling agent called refrigerant, into the system. This refrigerant has ozone-depleting

properties which affect and harm the environment. If your vehicle leaks refrigerant, it will

cause your A/C to not blow cold air, which results in sweaty summers, extremely high

water consumption for heat compensation, and harming the environment. Everybody

wants to be green, get your A/C recharged.
