Did Mother Nature Skip a Season or Two?

How many years have we gone right from Winter to Summer in Topeka?  I mean, what happened to 3 months of spring?  One of these days, sooner than later, you will reach for the A/C on your dashboard.  Will it work as well as it did last August?  Here is a little information about your vehicle’s air conditioning system.

The A/C is a closed system, which comprises a low and a high pressure side.  At the high-pressure side the coolant is operated by an engine compressor.  At the low-pressure side, the high pressure cooling liquid passes through an expansion valve and comes to the evaporator.  The evaporator, which is located somewhere behind the dashboard, cools the surrounding air.

Those are the very basics.  To make sure that your vehicle’s air conditioner works the first time (and EVERY time) you turn it on this upcoming summer stop by A.J.’s Import Garage.  Whether your car is imported or domestic A.J.’s will make sure that the a/c is performing properly.  They are located at 501 S.W. Harrison.  Call ahead for an appointment at (785) 233-1000.
