Is It Safe to Keep Floral Water in the Car?
1 Answers
It is not safe to keep floral water in the car as it is a flammable item. The main component of floral water is alcohol, and it has a low ignition point, making it highly flammable. Therefore, floral water should not be stored in the car. In addition to floral water, commonly used items like light perfumes and lighters should also be avoided in the car to prevent potential fires caused by sun exposure. If the temperature inside the car is not extremely high, keeping floral water in the car for a short period may not cause an explosion. However, during summer when temperatures inside and outside the car are high, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, especially near windows, may lead to an explosion. Hence, it is advised not to keep floral water in the car, and avoid exposing it to direct sunlight. Spraying a small amount of floral water in the car can have benefits. It can freshen the air inside the car, especially during summer when unpleasant odors may develop. The alcohol in floral water helps evaporate some of the odors, while the fragrance adds a pleasant scent. However, it is important to spray only a small amount and ensure that the car windows and doors are open for proper ventilation to prevent the risk of spontaneous combustion due to high temperatures. Additionally, during summer, a moderate amount of floral water can effectively repel mosquitoes and insects. Again, it is crucial to spray sparingly and maintain proper ventilation by keeping the car windows and doors open.
