Odors from your A/C system? |
Q: What
can I do to eliminate the foul odor from my auto A/C system?
A: The foul odor is a
result of the basic design of the auto A/C system. The system is technically
known as a 'series re-heat system'. That's because all the air entering into
the vehicle passes over the evaporator regardless of whether you're calling
for cooling, heat or some blend of hot and cold air. Therefore, the air side
(or inlet side) of the evaporator faces all the pollutants and contaminants
in the air. Because the evaporator is usually wet or moist with condensation,
that dirt and debris tends to stick to the evaporator face. Those are perfect
conditions for the start of bacteria, mold and mildew. To eliminate the problem,
you have to apply something to treat the odor and help eliminate the odor
causing bacteria and mold. A good
A/C
Evaporator Treatment is available at the COOL ZONE. Also understand why
foul odors from your A/C system happen. See the complete article on
