GENERAL DESCRIPTION

CHEVROLET, CHEVELLE,
AND
CAMARO

Components
of the
Chevrolet, Chevelle,
and
Camero

heaters
are
attached
to the
firewall
on the
right side
of

the vehicle. The blower
and air
inlet assembly and water

hoses
are
located on the engine side
of
the firewall while

the heater core and distributor duct
are on the
passenger

side.

The heater operates
on
outside
air
only with
the

blower receiving
its
airflow from
the
cowl vent plenum

chamber.

Since
the
unit
has no
water valve, water circulation

keeps
the
core
hot at all
times.
Air
passing through
the

core receives maximum heat from
the
core.

In operation, three levers control
all
heater opera-

tions.
The
AIR-FAN lever
is a
combination control;

moving
the
lever half-way opens
the
AIR door
(by
means

of
a
bowden cable)
to
supply outside
air to the
three

speed blower. Further movement
of the
lever operates

the blower.
The
other levers depend on bowden cables
to

operate
the
diverter doors located
in the
distributor

duct
to
control heater output and operation.

At
the
heart
of
the heater operation
is the
temperature
door.
Air
from
the
blower follows parallel paths through

the distributor duct, with
one
path passing through
the

heater core
and the
other path bypassing
the
core.
The

temperature door, operated
by the
TEMPERATURE
con-

trol lever,
is
placed
in the
duct
so
that when
it
closes
off

the path from
the
heater core,
it
allows ambient airflow

through
the
unheated path.
In the
opposite position only

heated airflow
is
allowed. Final heater output tempera-

ture
is
dependent upon
the
proportion
of
heated
and

unheated
air
blended together according
to the
setting
of

this temperature door.
To
insure positive closing
of
this

door when
the
heat lever
is in the off
position,
a cam

lock device
is
utilized
in the
control linkage
of the

Chevelle heater only.

Just beyond
the
temperature damper door
is the Air

door, operated
by the
AIR-FAN control lever, which
is

the
air
on-or-off control. This door will
be
open when-

ever
the
heater blower
is in
operation.

The defroster door, operated
by the
DEFROSTER

lever, acts
to
divert
the
heated
air
flow
up
through
the

defroster ducts
for
de-fogging, defrosting
or
de-icing

operations.

Figures
1 and 2
illustrate airflow through
the
heater.

Fig. 2-Heater Schematic (Chevy 11)

CHEVY

Heater components are located under the instrument

panel in the passenger compartment. Hot water hoses

from the engine are routed to the fire wall to the heater

core pipes. The blower motor receives outside air from

the cowl vent plenum chamber through the adapter as-

sembly. The air enters the heater core chamber where

it either bypasses or passes through the core depending

on the position of the temperature door, controlled by

the TEMPERATURE lever on the instrument panel.

Temperature control is achieved by adjusting the position

of this door to vary the proportion of heated and unheated

air introduced to the car interior. As the air flow is

drawn out of the heater core chamber (in the desired

proportion of hot and cold), it enters the blower where

it is thoroughly mixed, assuring a uniform temperature.

The distributor guides the air flow through either the

floor outlet or the defroster outlets depending on the

setting of the DEFROSTER lever on the instrument

panel. The AIR-FAN lever is the air OFF control as

well as the blower control.

CONTROLS

Control Assembly (Chevrolet, Chevelle, Camaro,

and Chevy II)

Air-Fan Lever

Since the heater makes use of outside air only, this

lever serves as an "air on or off" control by actuating

a damper in the distributor assembly downstream ("up-

stream" in the Chevy n heater) from the blower assem-

bly. With the lever in the half-way position, this damper

will be open to allow airflow into the vehicle. Moving the

lever further will actuate the three-speed (LOW-MED-

HIGH) fan lever which controls the blower motor and

determines the volume and force of the air flowing

through the heater core into the car.

Temperature Lever

Through its bowden cable, this lever controls the
positioning of the temperature door in the distributor

duct. This door allows airflow through either the heater

core (full RIGHT) or the bypass duct around the heater

core (full LEFT). Because the water temperature is con-

stant, this knob acts as an air mixture control, control-

ling temperature by varying the proportions of heated

and unheated air blended in the heater distributor duct.

The cam lock device at the damper door operating

lever (Chevelle only) may be adjusted as follows: Loosen

the two attaching screws. Place the cam in the closed

position and insert a pin through holes provided, locking

the cam in this position. Rotate the entire assembly

toward the closed position. Hold closed with some force

and tighten attaching screws. Remove the locking pin.

Defrost Lever

The defrost lever controls the position of the damper

(or deflector) door located in the heater and defroster

assembly. In the "off" position full airflow will go to

the floor duct for car heating purposes. In the "de-ice"

position the diverter door will drop down and divert

almost all the airflow to the defroster duct. (This posi-

tion will seldom be needed except for extreme de-icing

requirements). A "detent" position is built into the

Fig. 3—Heater Control Panel (Chevrolet Shown as Typical)

CHEVROLET CHASSIS SERVICE MANUAL

Page 26 of 659


HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONING 1A-3

linkage of this lever which will provide partial airflow

only to the defroster duct and which should be used for,

all normal defogging operations.

CORVETTE

Heater components are attached to the dash panel on

the right side of the vehicle with the air inlet assembly

on the engine side and the heater and air distributor

assemblies beneath the instrument panel within the pas-

senger compartment.

The heater operates on outside air only with the blower

receiving its air flow from the cowl vent plenum

chamber.

No water valve is utilized in the system. Therefore,

water flows through the heater core constantly while

the engine is running, keeping the core at maximum

temperature at all times.

Airflow through the system is shown in Figure 1.

Controls

Two knobs control all heater operations:

The FAN-TEMP knob is rotated to turn the blower

on and off and control blower speed and is pulled out

as desired to regulate heater temperature.

The AIR-DEF knob is the air on-and-off control as

well as the defroster control.

Temperature Damper: Door

At the heart of the heater operation is the temperature

damper door. Air from the blower follows parallel paths

through the distributor duct, with one path passing

through the heater core and the other path bypassing the

core.

The temperature damper door is placed in the duct

so that, when closed, the path of the heated air leaving

the heater core is blocked while the ambient air path

remains open. Positive closing of this door when no

heat is being called for is assured by a cam assembly

at the door operating lever. As the FAN-TEMP knob

is pulled out, the damper door is opened accordingly,

allowing varying proportions of heated air to mix with

the unheated airflow, thus providing heater outlet tem-

perature control. With the knob pulled fully out the
Fig.
4—Heater Controls (Corvette)

ambient air path is blocked and all airflow passes

through the heater core. Final heater output temperature

is dependent upon the proportion of heated and ambient

air blended together according* to the setting of the

temperature damper door.

Air and Defrost Damper Doors

Beyond the temperature damper door are the air door

and the defroster door, both operated through a single

bowden cable by the AIR-DEF knob. The first half of the

travel of this knob opens the AIR door allowing the

airflow to pass into the interior of the car through the

floor distributor openings. Pulling the AIR-DEF knob

fully out causes the defroster door to open, diverting

this airflow to the defroster ducts for defogging, de-

frosting or deicing operations.

NOTE: Since this knob is the air on-or-off

control, it should be pulled at least halfway out

before turning on the blower.

Fan Control

Rotate the FAN-TEMP knob to operate the three-

speed blower, increasing the velocity of the air through

the heater. The fully counter-clockwise position of the

knob is the off position. Turn clockwise to the desired

blower speed; fully clockwise for high blower speed.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Four
air
conditioning systems
are
covered
in
this

section. They are:

1.
The
Four-Season System (Chevrolet, Chevelle,

Camaro and Corvette).

2.
The Comfortron System (Chevrolet).

3.
The All Weather System (Chevy n).

4.
The Universal System (Chevrolet, Chevelle, Chevy
n,

Camaro)

Underhood components (that
is, the
compressor,
con-

denser
and
receiver-dehydrator)
are
much
the
same
in

type,
location
and
method
of
attachment
on all of
the

above systems. The six-cylinder reciprocating compres-

sor
is
bracket-mounted
to the
engine
and
belt driven

from
the
crankshaft pulley.
The
condenser
is
mounted

ahead
of the
engine cooling radiator
and the
receiver-

dehydrator
is
mounted
in
the refrigerant line downstream

of
the
condenser.
All
cooling system components
are

connected by means
of
flexible refrigerant lines.

Evaporator size
and
location differ from system
to

system
as do
methods
of
temperature control
and air

supply
and
distribution.

FOUR-SEASON SYSTEM

The Four-Season system used
in the
Chevrolet,

Chevelle, Camaro,
and
Corvette vehicles
may be
iden-

tified
by the
fact that
it
uses
an
evaporator pressure

control known
as the POA
(Pressure Operated Absolute)

suction throttling valve.
Both
the
heating
and
cooling functions
are
performed

by this system.
Air
entering
the
vehicle must pass

through
the
cooling unit (evaporator)
and
through
(or

around)
the
heating unit,
in
that order, and the system
is

thus referred to
as a
''reheat" system.

The evaporator provides maximum cooling
of the air

passing through
the
core when
the air
conditioning sys-

tem
is
calling
for
cooling.
The
control valve acts in the

system only
to
control
the
evaporator pressure
so
that

minimum possible temperature
is
achieved without core

freeze-up.
The
valve
is
preset,
has no
manual con-

trol,
is
automatically altitude compensated,
and non-

repairable.

The heater core will be hot
at
all times since no water

valve
is
present
in
the system.

System operation
is as
follows (See Figure 24 and 25):

Air, either outside
air or
recirculated
air
enters
the

system
and is
forced through
the
system by the blower.

As
the air
passes through
the
evaporator core,
it

receives maximum cooling
if
the
air
conditioning controls

are calling
for
cooling. After leaving
the
evaporator,

the
air
enters
the
Heater
and Air
Conditioner Selector

Duct Assembly where,
by
means
of
manually operated

diverter doors,
it is
caused
to
pass through
or to
bypass

the heater core
in the
proportions necessary
to
provide

the desired outlet temperature. Conditioned airflow then

enters
the
vehicle through either
the
floor distributor

duct
or the
dash outlets. Remember that the heater core

COMFORTRON SYSTEM

The Chevrolet Comfortron Air Conditioning System is

basically the same as the Chevrolet Four-Season system

but with the additional feature of completely automatic

control. See Figures 28, 29 and 30 for views of the

Comfortron system. To the customer, the most notice-

able difference between the two systems, will be in the

control panel. In place of the three-lever/one-switch

panel of the Four-Season system, the Comfortron has a

single control lever plus a temperature dial similar to

that found in a home thermostat. After the dial is set to

the desired temperature indication and the lever is moved

to place the system in operation, the Comfortron will

automatically control the heating and air conditioning

functions to maintain the selected interior temperature

regardless of changes in outside air temperatures.

Most Comfortron parts are located in the passenger

compartment, (fig. 28)

Jn-Car Sensor

The function of the in-car sensor is to determine the

temperature of the interior of the automobile. It is

located beneath the overhang of the instrument panel.

Feedback Potentiometer

The feedback potentiometer indicates to the amplifier

system the position of the temperature door.
Control Head

A thumb wheel is provided to select the desired in-car

temperature. A control lever performs the following

functions:

1.
Operates a switch that allows the customer to select

the type of blower program desired.

2.
Operates the control head vacuum switch except

when the TEMPERATURE lever is in the OFF

position, thus programming the vacuum system.

3.
