Does your car’s air conditioner smell bad?

Many times, we can notice that when turning on the air conditioning of the car, it begins to smell bad (a smell similar to wet earth or humidity). This may be due to the accumulation of moisture and dust in the ventilation ducts.

Some possible causes of the bad smell of the car can be:

Filters

The cabin or pollen filter that is located in the air intake of the air conditioning system, has the purpose of improving the air that enters the passenger cabin when one activates the ventilation, heating or air conditioning system and when this filter is very dirty, it can generate a bad smell.
To prevent this, it’s advised to change them every year

Moho

In case of humidity in the A/C system, it can turn into mold which will cause an unpleasant odor.

In this case, it is necessary to check the drains of the heating and air conditioning system.
