Summer is just around the corner, which means scorching temperatures will soon be upon us. While that's a welcome fact for a day at the beach, it's not so fun when you have to get into a sweltering car for a long commute. There is, however, one thing that can help cool down that rather uncomfortable summer experience in a snap. And it all comes down to a single, often-overlooked button on your car's dashboard: the recirculation button.
When you get in your car later for a drive, make sure to check out the dash to find the recirculation button. It's usually the little button with an icon of a car and a sideways-u-shaped arrow inside of it. Here's a little more about what it does and how to use it effectively.
What Is the Air Recirculation Button? Car company Eden Tyers and Servicing shared in a blog post, "The air recirculation button effectively cuts off the outside air to the inside of the car 'recirculating' air inside your vehicle." This makes it easier to ensure you're recirculating air-conditioned air rather than hot air from outside.
What Does the Air Recirculation Button Do?
The post goes on to explain that the air recirculation button is great for, "boosting your AC to help your cabin get as cold as possible as quickly as possible, stopping pollution and exhaust fumes" and even "reducing pollen when driving if you suffer from hay fever" and "stopping strong outdoor odors entering your car."
