We had this discussion over burgers with some friends yesterday. One of our friends admitted to having the a/c button "on" when they wanted hot air.
I always thought the a/c compressor and the heater core operated independently. You only use the a/c button when you want cold air.
They say it makes the heater work faster...and "conditions" the air, regardless of whether it's hot or cold.
No one in the group is a mechanic, so I thought I'd open it up to the board. Why should/shouldn't I have the a/c button on when I want heat?
Cheers,
