Saw my allergy/asthma doc yesterday (a new condition for me - don't get me started...)
For a car you've had for a while, or before a major road trip, he recommended "sterilizing" a car's climate control system by running the car with the fan on max and the heat on high for 1/2 hour. That, according to him, will kill any pollen, mold, and general unwanted funk that may be accumulating in your A/C system.
Sound feasible? Safe for the car, particularly in 90-degree outdoor weather? Windows up? Down? Fresh air? Recirculate? How to run the car unsupervised without someone walking by and boosting it?
So many questions...
