Does Using the Heater in Winter Consume Fuel?
1 Answers
Using the heater in winter does not consume fuel because the compressor is not in operation, and the engine is not under additional load, so fuel consumption does not increase. The warm air is generated by the heater core inside the dashboard dissipating heat and the operation of the blower. The car's air conditioning system generally includes a cooling device, a heating device, and a ventilation device. The car air conditioning system refers to the air conditioning equipment installed in the vehicle, which can cool, heat, ventilate, and purify the air inside the cabin, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing driver fatigue, and improving driving safety. The air conditioning system has become one of the indicators to measure whether a car is fully equipped.
