DIAVIA retrofit air conditioners – healthy and safe!
Road safety depends on many factors, one of the most crucial ones being the driver’s mental and physical state. After all, only a focused driver is a safe driver. An air conditioning system creates ideal conditions for healthy and safe driving.
Full concentration – prompt reaction
A driver’s concentration and reaction largely depend on the climate in the car. Doctors and road traffic experts are warning about the dangers of driving in extreme heat and humidity. A properly tuned air conditioner eliminates the risk.
Avoid draught problems
Too much of a draught is bad for your health. It may cause a chill or lead to muscular tenseness and rheumatic ailments. Therefore, the air velocity inside a vehicle should be kept as low as possible, it should never exceed a maximum of 0.2 to 0.25 m/sec. Only an air conditioner provides truly comfortable fresh air supply, without the risk of getting a "stiff neck".
Visibility is vital
Unimpaired visibility is vital to safe driving, especially in the dark months of the year. An air conditioner provides optimum conditions at all times. Even when the humidity is high and all the windows are steamed up, it’s enough to run the A/C at the lowest setting and switch the heating on. In no time at all, you’ll have clear, all-round visibility.
Clean air
Exposure to cold air, pollen and exhaust gases may irritate the respiratory tracts, especially with persons suffering from allergies. This is where an air conditioner with integrated air filter can be an effective remedy. It keeps harmful substances out of the car and prevents respiratory troubles.
Air conditioning not only adds comfort for the driver and value to the car, it also makes a major contribution to health and safety. |
When you notice an unpleasant smell coming from the A/C vents of your car, the reason quite often is that bacteria, mould or other micro-organisms have settled on the evaporator. In that case, treat your car to a refreshing spray of Airsept®. WAECO’s air conditioner cleaner keeps the air fresh and free of bacteria. One application lasts for at least one year.
