How Does Your Car’s Air Conditioning Work?
A car’s air conditioning system works by compressing and circulating refrigerant gas through a closed loop, absorbing heat from inside your car and releasing it outside. It includes a compressor, condenser, evaporator and expansion valve; all working together to keep cabin temperatures cool.
Does car air conditioning use fuel? Yes, it does. When running, it draws power from the engine, which can slightly affect fuel efficiency.
Also, if your car battery is low, you may notice weak aircon performance, especially at idle or when starting the car, since the compressor and fan motors rely on stable electrical power.
If you notice any issues in fuel efficiency or a weak aircon flow, it might be a sign that it’s time to contact us to book in your next car air conditioning service or repair.
