Recirculation ON)
A motorized flap closes off the outside air intake
The system reuses air already inside the cabin
Air is cooled or heated repeatedly
This creates a sealed airflow loop, allowing the HVAC system to work more efficiently under certain conditions.

Why Recirculation Cools the Cabin Faster
In hot weather, recirculation is especially effective because:
Air conditioning service
The air conditioner doesn’t need to cool hot outside air repeatedly
Already-cooled cabin air requires less energy to cool further
Interior temperatures drop
