The regular maintenance of your motor vehicle air conditioner not only ensures a comfortable driving experience during hot weather but also the logentity of the system itself. By ensuring regular motor vehicle air conditioner service at a NYS-DMV registered motor vehicle ac repair shop, you can enhance the cooling performance of your motor vehicle air conditioner, increase the fuel eciency of your motor vehicle, prevent costly motor vehicle air conditioner repairs in the future, improve the air quality of your motor vehicle cabin, increase the lifespan of your motor vehicle air conditioner, and the resale value of your motor vehicle. To ensure regular air conditioner maintenance service, it is very necessary to learn about the critical components of your motor vehicle air conditioner and the common symptoms of a faulty motor vehicle air conditioning system.

What Are Critical Components of Your Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner?

The air conditioner of your motor vehicle depends on the following critical components to ensure cool and dehumidified air inside your motor vehicle cabin for a comfortable driving experience:

Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner Compressor

The compressor of your motor vehicle air conditioner is the most critical component of your motor vehicle air conditioning system. It pressurizes the refrigerant gas and circulates it through the air conditioner. The high pressure refrigerant gas is crucial for the proper functioning of your motor vehicle air conditioning system.

Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner Condenser

When the compressor of your motor vehicle air conditioner pressurizes the refrigerant gas, it enters your motor vehicle air conditioner condenser located at the front of your motor vehicle near the radiator. The condenser cools down the pressurized motor vehicle air conditioner refrigerant gas and turns it into the high pressure refrigerant liquid from the pressurized refrigerant gas.

Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner Orifice Tube

The high pressure refrigerant liquid flows from your motor vehicle air conditioner condenser to the orifice tube or expansion valve of your motor vehicle air conditioner, which regulates the amount of high pressure refrigerant liquid entering the evaporator of your motor vehicle air conditioner system. It is the orifice tube or expansion valve of your motor vehicle air conditioner that ensures the expansion of the high pressure refrigerant liquid and drops in the pressure to turn it into a cold, low-pressure refrigerant liquid.

Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner Evaporator

The evaporator of your motor vehicle air conditioner is located inside the cabin, often under the dashboard. When the cold low pressure refrigerant liquid flows through your motor vehicle air conditioner evaporator coil, it absorbs the heat from the cabin air, causing the cold low pressure refrigerant liquid to evaporate into a gas. The cool air is then blown into your motor vehicle cabin through the flower fan of your motor vehicle air conditioner.

Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner Blower Fan

When the cold low pressure refrigerant liquid of your motor vehicle air conditioner evaporates into a gas after flowing through the evaporator of your motor vehicle air conditioner, your motor vehicle air conditioner blower fan blows the cooled air from the evaporator of your motor vehicle air conditioner into your motor vehicle cabin.

When You Need Motor Vehicle Air Conditioner Maintenance Service?

It is very necessary to drive your motor vehicle for regular air conditioner service to prevent any kind of discomfort during the hot weather since it can disrupt your motor vehicle driving experience and sometimes result in expensive motor vehicle ac repairs. The common conditions indicating urgent motor vehicle air conditioner repairs or maintenance service include the following:

● When the air coming out from your motor vehicle air conditioner is warm or inadequately cold, despite your motor vehicle being turned on, it could happen due to the low refrigerant level, refrigerant leak, faulty compressor or malfunctioning (blocked) orifice tube or expansion valve.

● When the air coming out from your motor vehicle air conditioner is unpleasant, it could happen due to the accumulation of mold, bacteria or fungi buildup inside the air ducts of your motor vehicle air conditioner evaporator coil.

● When you hear strange sounds like rattling, grinding, hissing or squealing after turning on your motor vehicle air conditioner. The rattling sound could occur due to accumulation of debris inside the blower fan of your motor vehicle air conditioner. The hissing sound could occur due to the refrigerant leak. The squealing sound could happen due to the worn or malfunctioning serpentine belt which drives your motor vehicle air conditioner compressor.

● When the compressor of your motor vehicle air conditioner is not on and o as it should, the refrigerant gas of your motor vehicle air conditioner does not pressurize or circulate, resulting in the malfunctioning of your motor vehicle air conditioner system due to various issues such as a faulty motor vehicle air conditioner compressor clutch, motor vehicle air conditioner refrigerant leak, motor vehicle air conditioner electrical issue or faulty motor vehicle air conditioner blower.

● When you notice refrigerant leaks around your motor vehicle air conditioner components or under your motor vehicle, it could occur due to worn out connections, hoses or seals.

● When you notice excessive moisture or pool of water on the floor of your motor vehicle cabin, it could happen due to a clogged or damaged condensate drain resulting in the wet carpets or puddles.

● When you notice inconsistent air flow from your motor vehicle air conditioner vents, it could happen due to a faulty motor vehicle air conditioner blower motor, dirty motor vehicle air conditioner filter or clogged motor vehicle air conditioner ductwork restricting the consistent airflow or resulting in too hot or to cold areas inside your motor vehicle cabin

● When you notice excessive hot air coming out from your motor vehicle air conditioner or your motor vehicle air conditioner running at unusually high pressure, it could occur due to faulty motor vehicle air conditioner compressor or improper motor vehicle air conditioner refrigerant pressure.

In all of these above-mentioned conditions, you need motor vehicle air conditioner maintenance or repair service on the urgent basis.
