To keep the refrigerant circulating properly, and to keep your car's air conditioning system lubricated, run your air conditioner once a month during the winter. Running the air conditioner a few times during the winter can also keep the refrigerant in older systems from leaking.

If you notice that all of the cooled air seems to be coming out of the defroster or the floor vents, it could be because the vacuum line has broken off or become otherwise disconnected. Refer to a technician to identify the exact problem and to locate the faulty vacuum line.
