What does the cooling system do?

Your cooling system’s primary function is maintaining the correct temperature in the engine. Whether the temperature outside is hot or cold, your cooling system keeps the engine from overheating and keeps the fluids inside from freezing.

Why is cooling system maintenance important?

Your cooling system is filled with coolant, a mixture of antifreeze and water. This chemical cycles through the radiator, heater core and water pump to protect your engine. Without high-quality coolant and regular inspections, corrosion could build up in the system and cause premature failure.

Interesting facts about your cooling system

• Different types of antifreeze are necessary for different vehicles. Check your manufacturer’s manual to know what you should be purchasing.
• Antifreeze itself is actually susceptible to freezing in low temperatures. By mixing the antifreeze with water, the fluid is less likely to freeze.
• Overheating is the most common cause of engine failure, especially in Cypress. By keeping up with cooling system maintenance, you can prevent a disastrous situation.
