Summer heat is unbearable not only for human beings but for cars too. It can shoot up the cabin temperature, which may lead to overheating, engine failure, fire, and flaking paint. Every year the temperature is increasing like never before. Vehicular heatstroke is dangerous for passengers and can cause health emergencies. There are several things that car owners can do to control extreme heat and minimize cabin temperature. Whether you are driving a Tata Harrier or any other car, there are some amazing car accessories and tips to control your vehicle temperature. Let’s find out 10 quick tips and accessories to save your car from the damaging impact of summer heat.
Wash your car frequently.
In the summer season, a car is exposed to a lot of debris, dust, and minerals present on the road. If they are not removed on time, they can react with the sunlight and damage the paint. Hence, it’s better to wash and dry your car often to keep dead bugs, debris, and toxic acids away from your car.
Wax your car.
Be sure to wax your car at least twice a year to protect the original paint of your car. Many car owners don’t know that wax plays the role of a protective layer against UV damage and scratches. You can also go for ceramic coating, which is even better and more durable.
Don’t fully close your windows.
Air circulation is important for your car’s cabin to lower the internal temperature. This way, the excessive heat won't damage the interiors. However, don’t leave your windows wide open.
Install car sunshades.
Car sunshades act as a boon for your car during summer. They can keep the temperature under control and protect the upholstery. AutoFurnish offers a premium range of universal pullover car sunshades for all cars that you can install easily.
Premium floor mats
Since summer is all about dust, debris, and roadside minerals, they can damage the interiors to a great extent. You can bring them inside with your shoes. Hence, install premium 7D or 9D customized combination foot mats that offer advanced protection, up to 9 depth layers, and an absorbent surface. You can find 9D or 7D Tata Harrier floor mats or floor mats for any other car at the store.
All-weather-proof body cover
Covering up your car when it’s parked outside is extremely important. You can simply put a heavy-duty, heat- and waterproof car body cover on it to protect it from UV rays, bird droppings, debris, and dust. AutoFurnish brings a premium range of Tata Harrier covers in different designs and colors. You can find a tailor-made collection of body covers for almost every car model.
Go for window tinting.
Window tinting is another way to keep your car cabin cool. A thin tint film is applied to the windows to block excessive sunrays and improve comfort. However, ensure to check whether it’s permissible in your city.
Keep an eye on the car’s fluids.
The summer season is an enemy of your car’s fluids. Due to excessive heat, fluids can burn up pretty quickly. Hence, keep checking your car’s coolant, transmission fluid, and engine oil to avoid getting stranded on the road.
Cover your car seats with premium seat covers.
Car’s upholstery is pretty expensive, which needs to be protected. Prolonged sun exposure and food stains can permanently damage them. Hence, install premium car covers that keep UV rays, stains, dust, and food spillage away from the original seats.
Get a windshield protector.
Last but not least, protect your dashboard from fading by installing a windshield protector. It’s a tinted layer that’s applied on the windshield to minimize the severe impact of the sun.
