A vehicle heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system can be configured for operation in a vehicle having a start-stop system. The start-stop system can automatically switch a vehicle engine between ON and OFF states to save fuel economy. A compressor within the HVAC system can be controlled based on a request to switch the engine from an OFF state to an ON state. It can be determined whether an air conditioning system is in an active state, whether the engine is in an OFF state due to the start-stop system, whether there is an engine OFF cancel request to switch the engine to an ON state, and whether the engine OFF cancel request is due to an HVAC request. If the engine OFF cancel request is not due to an HVAC request, the engine can be switched to an ON state while the compressor remains in an OFF state.
