Does Seat Heating Have Cold Air?
2 Answers
Seat heating does not have cold air. Here are the relevant details: 1. Heating Design: The basic structure of a seat heater consists of: a lower layer of non-woven fabric, heating wires arranged on the non-woven fabric, fixed in place with adhesive tape, covered with knitted fabric, and stitched with knitting thread into a shape similar to the seat heating area, then sewn into the seat cover. To enhance passenger comfort, the seat heating temperature is controlled within a specific range. 2. Heating Methods: Front Seat Heating: Front seat heating is typically found in vehicles with leather seats. Since leather surfaces can be cold in winter, front seat heating ensures that during freezing winters, sitting down won't be on an icy leather seat. Most electric heating devices come with temperature adjustment features. Rear Seat Heating: Rear seat heating is usually available in luxury cars or high-end models.
Seat heating doesn't blow cold air because it's just an electric heating pad embedded in the seat, warming you like sitting on an electric blanket. When I first started driving, I also thought it would blow air and found it strange that cold air came out when I turned on the seat heater in winter. Later, I realized I had mistakenly operated the air conditioning: it was set to external circulation mode, blowing cold air from the vents to the rear seat area, which had nothing to do with the heating. If you feel cold, check if the air conditioning is set to a low temperature or high fan speed, and try switching to internal circulation. Also, make sure the seat heating button is correctly activated. This feature is simply a heating pad, ideal for warming your bottom on cold days, but it's entirely different from ventilated seats, which have dedicated fans to blow cool or warm air.
