How to Properly Maintain and Clean Your Car Radiator
This is a subtitle for your new post
It’s often stated that prevention is the best cure. This applies as much to the condition of your car and its many components as it does to human health. With careful maintenance of your car, you can prevent the need for costly repairs, because you have dealt with the cause of most major problems before they occur. Your car’s radiator is one of its most important components, because it plays a major role in cooling your engine to stop it from overheating and seriously malfunctioning. Here at Applied Radiators, we have assembled some simple guidance on how you can properly maintain and clean your car radiator for better performance and a longer lifespan.
Top tips for radiator maintenance
1. Maintain Coolant Levels
The main thing you can do to maintain your radiator is to ensure you always keep the correct level of coolant in it. Your coolant should be mixed 50/50 with water unless you buy it pre-diluted. Your radiator cap should be firmly screwed on to keep the chamber pressurised. Each time you check any of these things, you should also look out for signs of leaks in your radiator, such as coolant on the road below your car, or low coolant levels after a recent top-up.
2. Professional Care
In addition to these easy tasks, you should also have an annual clean, flush and fill of your radiator performed by a professional radiator specialist.
