The CABIN FILTER is the last line of defense between exterior pollution and your vehicle's interior. Thanks to its anti-bacterial and odor-blocking features, the HVAC CABIN FILTER helps keep pollutants like fine dust, pollen, and gunk from slipping in via your vehicle's HVAC vents. Also, vehicle CABIN FILTERs help inhibit small bugs and crumbled leaves from entering your car's HVAC system, intercepting them before they affect the system's performance.
With time, your vehicle's CABIN FILTER may get congested or worn, especially if you drive in areas with hazardous air quality or high concentrations of allergens. Most cars can benefit from regular CABIN FILTER replacements at regular intervals of 15,000 to 30,000 miles. However, one of the top ways to determine when to replace your vehicle's CABIN FILTER is by referring to the owner's manual or being on the lookout for common signs that your CABIN FILTER is not working properly. You may realize that your CABIN FILTER is ready to be replaced if you sense bad odors coming from you car's A/C vents when you run the air conditioning or heater. Also, if the fan is on 'blast,' and the airflow is slow or imperceptible, an excessively contaminated CABIN FILTER may be at fault. Finally, though whistling sounds and a loud car A/C are unusual with CABIN FILTER issues, they do occur in some cases! If you or your passengers hear or smell any of these annoyances and your car or truck is running as usual, replace your old CABIN FILTER to clear the air.
Switching to a new CABIN FILTER is a form of maintenance that many car owners choose to do themselves or at a vehicle dealership. If you choose to DIY a CABIN FILTER replacement, refer to the owner's manual for the part's precise location (typically, your CABIN FILTER is behind the glovebox). More often than not, you'll need a screwdriver, a towel, and a handheld vacuum to replace your CABIN FILTER. But it's always best to follow the directions in your vehicle's manual to know you're going about replacing your CABIN FILTER the right way.
Premium vehicle HVAC CABIN FILTERs are specially-made to fit your vehicle, and electrostatically charged to trap pollutants, supporting fresher airflow from your vehicle's vents.
