Do you need to turn on the A-C for car air conditioning heating in winter?
1 Answers
You do not need to turn on the A-C for car air conditioning heating in winter. Here are the reasons why it is unnecessary to turn on the A-C: Only the blower is needed for heating in winter: Based on the heating principle of fuel vehicle air conditioning, the compressor is not required to work for heating in winter. Therefore, theoretically, there is no need to turn on the A-C. From a power consumption perspective, heating only requires the blower to be turned on, which consumes minimal power. Turning it on will increase fuel consumption: However, if the A-C switch is turned on, the compressor will consume additional energy when powered on. Although it will not blow cold air, it will unnecessarily increase power consumption and indeed lead to higher fuel consumption.
