Ever wondered why your car's interior smells a bit funky? The culprit might be a simple yet essential part: the cabin air filter. These often-forgotten heroes keep your ride's atmosphere fresh and healthy. So, next time you're sniffing around, remember to check that filter! Why Are Cabin Air Filters Important? Improved Air Quality: Cabin air filters play a crucial role in maintaining the air quality inside your vehicle. They trap a wide range of pollutants, including dust, dirt, pollen, and even some exhaust fumes. For those with allergies or respiratory conditions, this can make a world of difference, reducing symptoms and improving overall comfort. Protects Your Vehicle’s HVAC System: Over time, dust and debris can accumulate in your vehicle's heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. A clean cabin air filter helps prevent this buildup, ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently. This not only prolongs the life of the system but also improves its performance, providing you with more effective heating and cooling. Odour Control: Cabin air filters can also help reduce unpleasant odours from outside your vehicle, such as those from traffic or industrial areas. By trapping these particles before they enter your car, the filter helps keep the cabin smelling fresh. Enhanced Safety: Visibility is crucial while driving, and a clogged cabin air filter can impact your vehicle’s defogging capabilities. A clean filter ensures that your windows remain clear, improving visibility and safety, especially in challenging weather conditions. If you can’t remember the last time you swapped out your car’s cabin air filter, or if you’re scratching your head trying to recall, here’s a friendly nudge. That little filter keeps the air you breathe fresh, and a clogged one can turn your vents into a sneeze machine. When it comes to keeping your car’s air as fresh as a daisy, Auto Care Ocean Grove is your go-to in Ocean Grove If its a funky smell, or just want to make sure your filter’s pulling its weight, swing by our workshop, and our team of air-quality wizards will have you breathing easy in no time!

What's that smell?

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.
