Keffer inc Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I know I should know this anyways, but which setting re-circulates inside air from the AC? Max AC brings in fresh air from outside right?

RedBullDog Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I think its the other way around, Max is recirculated air and normal is outside air, unless Mack is different from IH. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39673-max-vs-normal-ac/#findComment-286580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I would assume MAX recirculates. That is why it cools it faster then bringing fresh warm air in.

Gmerrill0516 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Yup, max is recirculating hence it runs the same air through the evaporator coil repeatedly removing heat and humidity. Some vehicles have a separate recirculate button that in some cases isn't overridden when the defroster is put on...some people ride around all fogged up all the way around and cannot figure out why...duh. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39673-max-vs-normal-ac/#findComment-286623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Public Service Announcement: Switch from max/ recirculate to fresh as soon as the vehicle cools off! I think most people believe Max is just another fan setting.
