How to Deal with Water Inside the Car?
1 Answers
When water gets inside the car, it is necessary to remove the accumulated water, clean the interior items, and disinfect the area. Here are some steps for removing water from the car: 1. Removing accumulated water: If the car is only slightly affected by rain, simply opening the windows on a sunny day to air it out thoroughly may suffice. If water has entered the cabin, the repair process mainly involves draining the accumulated water. There are several rubber plugs located at the bottom of the vehicle chassis; removing these plugs allows the water inside the cabin to drain out. 2. Cleaning interior items: Rain can easily bring dirt and mud into the car. On a sunny day, removable interior items such as floor mats and seat covers should be taken out to air and clean. For carpets that are not too dirty, a vacuum cleaner can be used directly. 3. Disinfection: Floodwater often carries sewage and other dirty water, which contains a lot of bacteria. Seat covers and similar items should ideally be washed with bleach, and absorbent cotton must be replaced to prevent bacterial growth. Ozone disinfection can also be performed. The evaporator box of the air conditioning system should be disassembled, rinsed, disinfected, and dried, and the blower should also be thoroughly cleaned.
