Make your Vehicle Warm and Cozy with the Right Heater Core
When the snow is coming down and the driveway is covered in ice, getting into a warm car can make the cold a little more manageable. If you want your interior to feel a little more like a cozy fireside and less like an igloo, you'll need a heater core. The car heater core sits beneath the dashboard and filters the heat of the engine coolant to turn it into hot air.
Heater cores are relatively standardized in terms of design. They're made of copper or aluminum and like a radiator they have a layer of small fins over tubes that carry hot coolant through the core. There are some specialized car heater cores. If your vehicle has dual-zone climate controls, you will need a specialized heater core to manage both areas. Dual heater cores are split in two to allow for control on each side. Make sure you get a core that will match your vehicle's heating capabilities.
Two of the most common issues that can occur within your heater core are a block or a leak. Regularly replacing the coolant can help extend the life of your car heater core. Find heater cores and other replacement auto parts to help solve common auto issues at Sears.
