Why You Should Replace Your Cabin Air Filter

Benefits of Replacing a Cabin Air Filter

A new cabin air filter can transform the comfort and quality of your vehicle as you spend time in the driver's or passenger's seat. The filter may serve one purpose, but it is advanced enough to filter a handful of different types of debris. It can trap harmful contaminants, dirt, debris, odors, smoke, and smog from the outside to protect your health.

Several benefits come with installing a new air filter. You can improve the operation of your HVAC system because the filter will allow there to be better airflow, which reduces strain on the parts. You can also reduce your exposure to pollen, dander, and dust that are known to trigger allergies in the spring season.

How Often Should I Replace My Cabin Air Filter?

Several factors determine when you should replace this important part. Start by reading through your owner's manual to determine when the filter needs to be replaced because it can vary for different types of makes and models. Consider where you spend most of your time driving. If you drive in an area where a lot of unpaved roads are present, it can cause the filter to become clogged sooner. Smoke and heavy pollution in the area also lead to the filter having a shorter lifespan.

Most cabin air filters last about 15,000 to 30,000 in areas with clean, quality air. You may need to replace the filter around 5,000 miles if it gets clogged quicker due to excess smoke or smog in the local area.
