Keep Your Cool: The Importance of Coolant in the Summer

Keep your cool: The importance of coolant in the summer
Summer has arrived, and with it, warmer temperatures. Although we may be overheating it’s important that our cars aren’t. This is where antifreeze comes in. Antifreeze is most commonly known for its ability to keep your car’s coolant from freezing in the winter; however, it could just as easily be called “Anti-boil.” The same chemical characteristic that lowers the freezing point also raises the boiling point of the liquid, preventing your vehicle from over-heating in the summer. This dynamic liquid is a multifunctional 50/50 mix of fresh coolant and water that is designed to keep engine temperatures stable and includes additional additives that prevent rust and corrosion in the radiator, engine and the vehicle’s heater. A common cause of vehicle breakdowns in the summer is due to the coolant system failing. Be prepared and get the most out of your engine and summer adventures by making sure your coolant system is in good working order.
