How to clean my Seat Tarraco air conditioning
Let’s start our document with the cleaning of the air conditioning system of your Seat Tarraco. The only way to do a full cleaning of this system will be to use bactericidal and fungicidal sprays, in reality, your air conditioning generates loads of moisture that will stagnate in the system and will activate the production of germs and bacteria of all sorts. You will find these products on the internet or in car centres. There are two solutions to perform this, here they are
Clean the air conditioning system of your Seat Tarraco in a simple way
Once you have a disinfectant spray, you can very easily clean your car’s air-conditioning system.
The methodology is very easy, however, this process can dirty the inside of your Seat Tarraco.
- Take off the cabin filter.
- Install the disinfectant spray on the floor of your car (if possible on the passenger side).
- Start your car’s ventilation and air conditioning (with the engine is on) with air recycling
- With the windows shut down, press the button on the bomb to empty it little by little and close the vehicle doors and leave it on for about ten minutes.
- Once this time has passed, open the doors of your Seat Tarraco, ventilation still on and let the passenger compartment air out for about 20 minutes.
This approach will allow you to quickly clean the air-conditioning system of your Seat Tarraco, but if you have bad air-conditioning odours on your Seat Tarraco that are persistent, we encourage you to utilise the second solution.

Now let’s go forward to the more radical process of performing a cleaning of your ventilation system complete. You will have to buy the same bactericidal and fungicidal spray, it is only the application that will be different. Here is the procedure to follow:
- Take off your cabin filter.
- By the external air intake of your Seat Tarraco (between the bonnet and the windscreen), with the engine on and the ventilation on, spray several times for 5 seconds and leave all windows and doors shut down for A moment.
- Once this first step is conducted you will be able to tackle the inside part of your air conditioning system, doing the same but not the inside air intake which is usually found under the glove box.
- Finally, to finish, you can spray a few sprays into the vents of your Seat Tarraco.
- All you have to do is air out your car while the product dissipates before you can use it again.
