Because our exclusive GEN-II TM and GEN-IVTM technology incorporates so many revolutionary ideas and features we get some frequently asked questions from our customers. And, we hear some unfortunate disinformation coming from other “air conditioning sellers”. Here’s what you need to know...
Are the Gen-II & IV Systems really different?
Vintage Air is the only performance air conditioning
company that designs and manufactures all of their
products with industry standard Pro Engineering
CAD/CAM systems. Rather than trial and error or
repackaging ten year old product designs, we
continually refine existing systems and develop new
systems to deliver true climate control such as you
would find in the finest production automobiles. In
fact, we actually provide the climate control systems
for some of the world’s finest supercar makers!
What is the point of using servo motors?
Servo motors are not simply on-off electric switches
found in some aftermarket a/c systems. They are
variable position solid-state devices used reliably on
high-end OEM systems for years. Servo motors in
properly designed systems can deliver much greater
air-door travel. This allows us to design from
scratch with tremendous volume increases in all of
the Gen-II & Gen-IV systems. Conventional vacuum
operated air doors simply do not open far enough to
flow as much air as these systems.
Servo’s are not cheap. Nor are they just a bolt-in
change. That’s why other companies have only reluctantly
begun offering them, and why they tried for
years to discourage customers from wanting a servo
system. When combined with our exclusive solid
state circuit board controls the Gen-II & IV servo’s
can give you the most infinite adjustments for “Just
Right Temperatures” in any weather or location.
Can the case design make that much difference?
All you have to do is see the “virtual” flow testing we
perform on our engineering computer work stations to
understand. We can test, refine, and retest the most
minor case design changes or components until we are
satisfied that the system is delivering everything it has
got - before we even build a prototype! Then we install a
system in one of our R&D hot rods and drive it thousands
of miles - before you ever buy one for your own
hot rod. Just like professional race teams, we know
winning is in the smallest details!
Does the Gen-II & Gen IV deliver better defrost too?
One of the important design ideas we learned with our
in-house CAD engineering program was how to design
for optimum dehumidified defrost mode. Clearing the
fog from your windows on a mild, yet humid, day is a
snap with the new Gen-II & IV systems.
Do I have to be a computer programmer?
While the new electronic controls and servos are stateof-
the-art, the Gen-II & IV systems are actually easier to
install than old conventional type systems. No cables to
route through the firewall because the heater valve is
also servo controlled. No linkages to adjust because the
controls are solid state circuit boards. And, you can
mount the control panel almost anywhere in the car.
Simply plug and play!
What about high horsepower engines?
Gen-II & IV systems do not need engine vacuum. All
functions are controlled with electronic servos so your
climate control will not be affected even when you’re
powering up a mountain pass!
Why is the warranty three years?
Since the day we sold our first system back in 1976 we
have always gone the “extra mile” to satisfy our customers
needs. Ask any Vintage Air owner. The fact is,
when installed as directed, Vintage Air systems have
less than one tenth of one percent defects! We could
offer a longer warranty but our three decades of experience
tell us that in the very rare times that a part has
failed it fails in the first few months of operation. There
are thousands more Vintage Air systems on the road
today than all other brands combined.
Thirty-Plus Years Says It All!
We believe that the most important part of any warranty
is the reputation and longevity of the company which
stands behind it. We are proud to remain the most
trusted name in climate controls since 1976.
