There are very severe frosts in Russia. They give motorists a lot of headaches. Cars are freezing to death. Opening the car and starting it early in the morning is a whole problem. If you succeed, then you still have to drive more than one kilometer in a real ice carriage. How can you insulate, for example, an ordinary Niva?
It is necessary
Vibroplastic, building hair dryer, a set of rollers, seals, heated rear and windshields
Instructions
Step 1
In Niva, as a rule, there is no vibration and noise isolation, and if it is, then it is no good. Therefore, you should silence your car. It is not at all necessary to take the car to the service for this procedure. You can do it yourself. In any auto shop you can find sheets of vibroplastic. It is convenient in that one of its parts is sticky, that is, you do not need to use glue when laying it.
Disassemble the interior of your car to the ground. Carefully examine it for the presence of foci of corrosion, if any, then they should be treated. Remove the door trim. Now, using a hair dryer and a specially set of rollers, lay a layer of vibroplastic. Heat the sheets before applying and rinse with a roller so that they adhere to the surface without bubbles. So apply several layers, then install the interior back.
Step 2
Examine all the seals. Heat is lost usually in two ways - heat radiation and heat transfer. Damaged seals create gaps through which warm air escapes. Therefore, it is best to install new seals. Also check that all power windows are working properly. Over time, they can sag and form gaps.
Step 3
Check the functionality of the standard stove. It must be periodically sorted out and changed filters, since a lot of debris accumulates in it. Also check and clean all air ducts so that air can circulate easily through them.
Step 4
You can also go for the modernization of the standard heating system. Install the thermostat from the Chevrolet Niva. This modernization will require some investment, but the result will be quite tangible.
Install a glass heater, then the glass will be constantly heated. This will reduce heat loss through cold glass.
