After a summer of wind and sun, Xiaoxin’s air conditioner had a pungent and sour smell coming to her face. Because the humidity in summer is high and mold is easy to breed, it produces a peculiar smell. This reminds us that we should do air conditioning cleaning, so I and I made an appointment with the local 4S shop to drive our car to maintain the air conditioning system and wash its lungs when the season changes.

1. Car owner’s small file:
Aika ID: Meteor Shower_007
City: Dalian
Car series: 2013 Xinrui
Driving experience: 7 years
mileage traveled: 11w kilometers

2. Maintenance process:

Drive to the store and check out. It’s been a car for 6 years. Is the exterior protection okay?

The young man in charge of reception helped me put up the floor mats and seat covers early. The service was very good. Let me like it ~

This is the protagonist of today’s maintenance. The quality of the air conditioning cleaning and maintenance kit is guaranteed by the original factory.


Take a closer look. These two bottles of babies are air conditioning evaporator cleaner and air conditioning system ventilation line cleaner respectively. The large bottle is 400ml and the small bottle is 150ml. I hope these two babies can completely solve my distress.


Because I came early, there were not many people who came for maintenance, so I was the first one.

I ran into a royal blue RS in the store. It was so handsome…


At the beginning of maintenance, first remove the air conditioner filter element, then clean the air conditioner evaporation box, and use a tool similar to a thin straw to evenly spray the cleaning agent of the air conditioner evaporation box into it to play a sterilization role.


The next step is to clean the air conditioning air intake and continue to use a straw tool to evenly spray the air conditioning system ventilation pipe cleaning agent into each air outlet. The master operated very carefully, for fear of missing every detail. You can see that foam overflows from the air outlet.

A pool of gray foam can be seen flowing out under the car, proving that the entire air conditioning system evaporation box and air intake piping have been cleaned.

Because the air conditioning filter element is not too dirty, you can continue to use it when you take it out and blow it.



The final step is to use an ozone machine to sterilize the air inside the car, and at the same time, turn the air conditioner inside the car to the highest temperature to thoroughly dry the air conditioning pipes.


Finally, I came to settle the fee, because I bought a package that included working hours. All the fees added up to 257 yuan, which was still a very cost-effective one.




3. Summary
Whenever the season changes, the air conditioner needs to be cleaned, because the odor of the air conditioner is generally emitted by the air conditioner filter elements, ventilation pipes, and evaporation boxes. Air conditioner cleaning requires purchasing original accessories so that the cleaning effect can be achieved. Therefore, it is generally recommended that small partners operate in the store; the air conditioner filter element is replaced every 10,000 kilometers. If the local air is very poor, it needs to be replaced frequently. In addition, the air conditioner evaporator box and air conditioner pipes are recommended to be cleaned at least twice a year. It is still necessary to spend some money for the health of yourself and your family.
