Musty smell from your Air Conditioning?

The warm weather has finally started to make an entrance and this has had many of us turning on the car’s air conditioning unit for the first time this season. Have you noticed a musty smell or worry that it might not be blowing clean air into the cabin of your vehicle?

The Good Garage Scheme, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, recommends that air conditioning systems are checked, especially if they have been inactive over the winter. It has been proven that harmful mould and bacteria can grow in the ducts while the system remains unused over many months. Drivers can be blissfully unaware of the dangers it can pose when switched back on.

Breathe easy with the Good Garage Scheme 

There is good news for motorists looking for a garage to check their car’s air conditioning. Simply visit your nearest Good Garage Scheme member garage and ask them to sterilise and deodorise your car’s air conditioner. It is a simple way to ensure you and your passengers are breathing healthy air.

Now widely accepted as a mark of quality for independent garages across the UK, Good Garage Scheme member garages are recognised as providing exceptional service to their customers based on a rigorously monitored mandatory Code of Conduct.

Find your nearest member garage using the easy-to-use search facility on the Good Garage Scheme website www.GoodGarageScheme.com.
