SHOP FOR WINDSHIELD WIPERS, BLADES AND PARTS

You should never neglect your windshield wipers. Exposure to sunshine, ice, snow makes wiper blades stiffen, tear and cause them to become less effective over time. Let's prevent accidents and avoid further costly repairs this year.

Windshield wipers have three parts.

• The wiper arms
• The metal or plastic blade
• The rubber blade.

When you need to change your blades, you only replace the rubber blades.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD WIPERS BLADES BE REPLACED?

Wiper blades wear-out with time. Make sure you replace them regularly. It is important to make sure your wipers are in good condition if you want to have good visibility when you are on the road.

We recommend changing them every 6-12 months, especially with severe cold weather like our Canadian winters. Extreme cold, ice, and rain can cause the wiper blades to wear and tear.

Signs to replace your windshield wipers:

• You can hear them squeaking
• Skipping
• Uneven edges
• They leave streaks: impairing visibility
• They are splitting: blades cracking
• Blades are falling
• Change of season.

Different wipers have different lifespans, checking the conditions of yours should be done regularly.

Don't risk your safety on the road. Visit your local NAPA Auto Parts to find the right replacement parts.

Are winter wipers worth it?

When winter comes, replacing summer wiper blades to winter wiper blades should be considered. Winter blades not only protect your windshield against ice and snow but are also designed especially for cold weather. The rubber on the blades are made thicker to push away ice and resistant to extreme cold.

Different types of wiper blades:

• Conventional
• Hybrid
• Flat
• Winter

Cheap vs. Expensive Wiper Blades:

The price of wiper blades is often related to the different types of blades. Brand name wiper blades are not required, but make sure you choose according to the make and model of your vehicle. Windshield wipers from known brands often cost more than other brands. The advantages of more expensive wipers is that they last longer and work better. They are made of better materials and endure more winter conditions.

To replace your wiper blades you can either change them yourself or go to a garage.
