When the temperature in India reaches above 45 degrees Celsius, the car's air conditioner (AC) becomes every driver's biggest support. But if your car's AC stops giving cold air or its cooling capacity becomes weak, it not only makes your journey uncomfortable but also increases your fuel consumption.

If you are also facing such a problem, then do not worry. We will tell you five easy and effective solutions, that will improve the performance of your car's AC, and cooling will also happen faster.

# Ventilate the cabin well before turning on the AC

When the car stands in strong sunlight for a long time, its cabin becomes hot like an oven from inside. In such a situation, if you turn on the AC immediately, the AC works harder and the cooling slows down. So first open the windows of the car for a few minutes and turn on the fan so that the hot air inside goes out. When the temperature inside decreases a little, then close the windows and turn on the AC. This will reduce the load on the AC and you will get cool air quickly.

# Use re-circulation mode properly

Often people ignore the re-circulation mode while running the AC. This mode re-circulates the cool air inside the car and prevents the hot air from outside from entering. This quickly controls the cabin temperature, the AC compressor runs less, and also saves fuel.

# Avoid parking the car in direct sunlight

When you park your car in direct sunlight, its interior becomes extremely hot, sometimes the temperature goes above 50 degrees Celsius. In such a situation, the AC has to work harder to cool the cabin. So if possible, park the car in the shade or use a sunshade so that the temperature inside remains low.

# Pay attention to the cleaning of the air filter

Over time, the cabin air filter of the car can get clogged with dust and garbage. When the air filter becomes dirty, the airflow of the AC decreases, which does not bring cold air properly and puts more pressure on the compressor. This degrades the performance of the AC and increases fuel consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to clean or replace the air filter regularly.

# Set the AC to a moderate temperature

Many people think that setting the AC to 16 to 18 degrees Celsius will provide cool air quickly. Although this is true, it puts more load on the car's engine and also increases fuel consumption. According to experts, it is better to set the AC to around 24 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, the cabin remains comfortably cool, the compressor does not turn on and off frequently, and fuel savings are also good.
