It’s fair to say that the UK has one of the most varied climates in the world, thanks to being an island that is positioned between the Atlantic Ocean and a large land mass, making air conditioning for classic cars a key consideration for owners.
Indeed, keeping an eye on the weather forecast is a national obsession, as it’s not often that any two days are the same.
Our latest blog explores why classic car owners wanting to enjoy their car in all seasons should consider a bespoke air-conditioning system upgrade, which can be installed by our experts or supplied in kit form, whether they live in the UK with our wonderful weather, or are based further afield.
SPRING SHOWERS
Owning a classic car has a unique appeal, especially with the arrival of spring and the chance to get out on the open road more often.
However, spring also sees plenty of heavy downpours. The increased moisture in the air can creep into the cabin, misting up cold windows and damaging the interior.
The solution for clear windows is a constant air flow, which is possible with one of our bespoke world-class air conditioning systems, specifically designed to deliver high performance without compromising the aesthetic appeal of older vehicles.
AIR CONDITIONING FOR CLASSIC CARS IN THE SUMMER HEAT
As the temperature rises, so can the stuffiness inside a classic hardtop.
Yet, it does not need to be an uncomfortable experience in the heat, as a cool cabin is possible with an upgraded air conditioning system that has been developed and tested around the world in extreme climates.
As global leaders in air conditioning for classic cars, with over a century of technical innovation, our expertise has helped countless owners enjoy a pleasant drive, while maintaining the authenticity of their pride and joy.
UNSETTLED AUTUMN
As the nights draw in, cars need to be able to cope with autumn’s variable climate.
Maintaining a steady, and agreeable, temperature inside the cabin can make all the difference between an enjoyable time behind the wheel, rather than wishing for the journey to end.
This is where our discreet air conditioning and heating systems come into their own, while also protecting the inside of the vehicle, such as helping to prevent seat covers from cracking.
WINTER CHILLS
Classic cars can still be enjoyed even when it’s cold, as our technologically advanced heaters clear windows quickly, while raising the temperature inside the cabin to a warm level.
If the car is in hibernation over winter, then it’s a perfect opportunity to have one of our bespoke heating and air conditioning systems installed, so the car is ready to be enjoyed when spring arrives.
Our systems can also add value to a classic car, while it is possible to reverse them at a later date if the car needs to be returned to original condition, an important factor if considering a potential resale.
