Auto Climate Control

Auto climate control. Quite a long time air conditioning or climate control was considered a luxury. Today, virtually all automakers are committed to equip even expensive car with air conditioning, and the more expensive cars will certainly stand the climate control. The advantages of the climate control are undeniable. Ability to set the required parameters of the microclimate in the car before the trip and not to be distracted by them adjustment and maintenance during the ride, gives a clear sense of comfort and security. Not unimportant factor is also the opportunity to catch a cold and strong from hypothermia during the hot summer period, when not control the air conditioner. On a machine with climate-controlled of course this does not happen.

So having a car with air conditioning, many motorists stop to think, but whether the climate usovershensvovat installation of your car? In principle, the device conditioning in all cars is almost the same. The differences are only in their design. Understanding this gives us the opportunity suggest that an upgrade of air conditioning in a climate-control is possible. This matter has already given much attention in some countries. A striking example of this – China. They developed odnozonovy climate control, which can be installed on a car with air conditioning. The installation process takes no more than 3 hours. But in this version there is one drawback.

Put a climate-control is possible only on some models of cars with air conditioning. If your car from this list, then you are lucky. But this example is not unique. I'm pretty sure that there are a number of individual "authors" developments in this area, which also deserve attention. Requirement unification, ie ability to put the equipment on almost any car with air conditioning, in my opinion is fundamental. After considering all possible options to address this issue, you can pick up at most acceptable to itself.
