Only water-based paint is used for all compressors to prevent unsafe petroleum-based emissions. With this, it could be observed that 4-seasons is concerned about the environment and not just product quality. The compressors come in different specifications; car owners have to identify the product that is compatible with their particular make and model.
Manageable motors
Unlike the compressors, 4-seasons' entire line of motors is made in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada. Production of blower motors and radiator fan motors is conducted by the company's Unimotor facility. To ensure that car owners will really get the quality they want, materials are assembled and tested before mass production starts. Aside from that, the manufacturing facility itself is both certified QS9000 and ISO 9000. Moreover, the company ensures that all motors meet or exceed OE design and performance. These blowers are beneficial because they have a direct-fit design so, installation is a breeze.
State-of-the-art accumulators

The accumulators made by the company are constructed from quality aluminum. Each accumulator is designed with a universal can top containing the suitable hole configuration. Just like the motors, 4-seasons' accumulators have a direct-fit configuration for easy installation. However, car owners still need to carefully identify the specification of the accumulator for their particular make and model. Due to their design and configuration, there's no way that dirt and contaminants can get past it or leak out once they're trapped. All of these features of the accumulators show how much the people behind the brand care about customer satisfaction.
