You mustn't forget to run it in the winter too, keeps the seals lubed etc

I said to the girlfriend to use it every time it rains as you can use it warm. She didn't so I need to top it up again.

I used mine all the time and it's still cold.

I never switch mine off. I find the windows clear faster too.

They do loose gas over a period of years. My car is 4.5 years now and gonna get it re-gassed this year. I use it in winter as well to keep the seals lubed but still is not as effective as when the car was new.
