Engine cooling is the most important functional system of the car. The coolant does not allow the engine to overheat and “boil”, as well as ice, which has a positive effect on the reliability and durability of the power unit. As a rule, the replacement of antifreeze (coolant) must be replaced every 100,000 km or after 2 years of operation of the car.
At the heart of any coolant (antifreeze) is one of two substances:
- ethylene glycol;
- propylene glycol.
These agents increase the boiling point of ordinary distilled water, and also do not allow the distillate to be taken by ice during the winter cold.
Replacing antifreeze in Kyiv requires a professional approach. Experienced drivers are aware that refrigerants are extremely toxic. Ethylene glycol-based OPs have the highest carcinogenic properties. But such antifreeze is cheaper than its closest counterpart. Propylene glycol is considered less harmful, but such antifreeze is significantly more expensive than OP from ethylene glycol.
Specialists of our service center use personal protective equipment when working with coolants. Only highly skilled craftsmen know how to make the replacement of antifreeze safe, efficient and rational. Come to us. We will replace the antifreeze without adverse health effects and immediately dispose of the OP. And most importantly, the coolant update will not hit your pocket.
Replacement of coolant by means of the special equipment
In the cooling system of the vast majority of machines is arranged so that at home to drain all 100% of the OP is not possible. In most cases, “home builders” can eliminate up to 60% of antifreeze.
Our service station has the certified equipment for pumping of a cooling circuit. Hardware replacement of antifreeze has a number of undeniable advantages:
- diagnostics of the cooling circuit;
- working off merges on all 100%;
- the radiator and furnace are cleaned of sediment;
- all internal channels and branch pipes are cleared of obstructions;
- all air is completely expelled from the system.
Note that there are cases when engine oil is mixed into the coolant. This point indicates that the cylinder head gasket has lost its tightness and requires replacement. In such cases, it does not help to simply replace the antifreeze, as the engine oil will still mix even with the new coolant through the torn seal.
If the diagnostics showed that the cylinder head gasket is not airtight, the car owner will be asked to start repairs to eliminate the “root cause”. However, it may be necessary to replace the rings and clean the pistons from soot, as well as other related work. Our service center is always comprehensive in its approach to maintenance. That is why we are not afraid to guarantee impeccable quality of maintenance and achieve optimal results.
Professional replacement of antifreeze in Kiev
The result of quality maintenance of the cooling system is:
- reduction of fuel consumption to 10%;
- prevention of inclusion of the radiator fan;
- increasing the service life of the engine.
Mechanized cleaning of PR channels is carried out quite quickly. The device of washing of a cooling contour allows to achieve necessary result only for 1 hour of work.
