Can antifreeze add water? Can antifreeze be watered?

A qualified driver can not only drive a car, but when using the car in peacetime, it is not possible to find a repair shop for processing, so the daily maintenance of the car or some common sense must be understood. Recently, a friend asked, can antifreeze add water? Antifreeze can not be watered, let's take a look at the introduction of Xiaobian.

Antifreeze is not exclusive to the northern region. Whether in the south or north, the car must be filled with antifreeze. Antifreeze is not only anti-freezing, but also anti-boiling, anti-corrosion, anti-scaling and so on.

There are two types of antifreeze, one is concentrate, which needs to be used with water. Most of the original brand antifreeze is this type; the other is “ready to use” type, antifreeze does not need to be watered when used. The "universal type" sold in the market is this category.

After a period of normal use, the antifreeze will consume a portion over time. When the owner finds that the antifreeze liquid level is low, the method is to add with the same color and brand antifreeze. If there is not much loss, use a small amount of purified water or distilled water for replenishment, but do not do so for a long time, otherwise it will lead to the freezing point of antifreeze and the rust prevention function, which will easily damage the water tank.

In the event of an emergency, such as high temperature, boiling pot or antifreeze leakage, you can use the method of pure water distilled water to temporarily make emergency, do not use mineral water, tap water, mineral water, but must go to the repair shop or 4S shop as soon as possible afterwards. Replace the antifreeze.

So, how should antifreeze be selected?

1. Choose a large brand of antifreeze

Some bad businesses are cheaper to cut costs and cut costs. It turns out that many cars will see water seepage, rust and other phenomena, which are mostly caused by fake antifreeze, so it is recommended that you do not greedy small and cheap.

2. Try to use the same brand of antifreeze

Remember not to change the antifreeze of different brands at will. This kind of thing has to be matched. The antifreeze formulas of different brands may not be the same, so try not to mix them.

3. Choose the appropriate antifreeze for freezing point

Generally, the freezing point of antifreeze is lower than the local low temperature of 10 degrees Celsius.

As far as the Beijing area is concerned, the minimum temperature is around -15 °C, so buy an antifreeze with a freezing point of -25 °C. Of course, the lower the freezing point, the better and more expensive. The owners of the South do not care too much. Although the winter in the south is not too cold, it is recommended to always pay attention to the freezing point and margin of the antifreeze.

After reading the introduction of Xiao Bian, everyone should understand that the antifreeze can not be watered. Antifreeze sold in the market, try not to exchange water, even in an emergency, try to add a small amount of pure water or distilled water to avoid damage to the water tank.
