Why You Should Replace Your Cabin Air Filter

Benefits of Replacing a Cabin Air Filter

One part in your car that is easy to overlook is the cabin air filter. However, the cabin air filter plays a starring role in making sure that the air in your car's cabin is free of contaminants. No matter how often you need to change the filter for your car, keeping up with cabin air filter maintenance is important. The filter prevents potentially harmful contaminants from reaching other parts in the car's air conditioning system, which allows the AC system to work properly. A clogged filter can compromise the system's performance and even cause its components to wear out faster than they should, which costs you more in car service and repairs. If you have problems with seasonal allergies, a functional cabin air filter can eliminate pollen and other springtime allergens from the air, which improves your health as a result. The cabin air filter also controls odors in your car and keeps fog from building up on the windows.

How Often Should I Replace My Cabin Air Filter?

Some automakers follow a general mileage-based guideline for determining when cabin air filters should be changed. However, your vehicle may need to have the cabin air filter changed more often based on environmental conditions. If you drive your car in a dusty or dry location, the cabin air filter will get clogged more quickly. Rather than replacing the cabin air filter twice each year, which most automakers recommend, you may need to replace the filter every season. The cabin air filter should also be evaluated before and after spring when pollen is most active.
