Tips For Keeping Your Car Cool When It's Parked

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....

When it comes to these hot summer months, there is not a whole lot that feels worse than getting into a car that is twenty or thirty degrees hotter than the temperature outside – and in fact, if you do not take the proper precautions to keep your car cooler when it is parked, your car can even be so hot that you will have to wait to drive it! Although you will certainly have to put up with some level of heat in your car during the summer regardless of the precautions you take, these steps will help to make your car more bearable during these hot months of summer.

A big part of keeping your car from being so hot will be parking in the shade – but you cannot simply park where the shade is, as the sun will move during the day; when you are parking at a place where you will be for a while, you should figure out where the shade will be by the time you are returning to your car (and remember, it is better to park in the shade and walk a little ways than to park in the sun and have your car feel like an oven!).

It will also be beneficial for you to crack your windows a little bit when parking; some people do not like to crack their windows, as they feel this makes their car more susceptible to break-ins, but if you crack your windows just a bit, your car will remain safe, and it will also remain a whole lot cooler.

You can also block the sun from coming in through your windshield by creating a bit of shade when there is no natural shade; while people think of car shades as being “very 1980s,” there are actually some very classy car shades being made today, and this will make your car feel a whole lot better when you get back in.

Your car will not be nearly so hot during the summer when you pay attention to these tips – which will make driving a whole lot easier, and a whole lot more enjoyable!
