3 Reasons Why Changing Your Cabin Air Filter is Important
Having a dirty cabin air filter can weaken your vehicle's air-conditioning, cause your engine to work less efficiently and harder, and may even cause you to breathe in dirt and debris when you're behind the wheel.
Cabin Air Filters Affect Air Conditioning
You may fear the worst when your air-conditioning stops working well. Often, the issue is an obstructed cabin air filter. When our technicians clean customer filters, there's a good change you can see your AC come back to life.
Dirty Filters Can Weaken Engine Power
Engine power reduction can result from faulty air-conditioning. As we know, an AC problem could be due to a clogged filter. If your car is working hard to pump air through an obstructed filter, the engine naturally tries to compensate by pushing harder. Therefore, weake engine production could be a complex problem with an easy air-filter solution.
Clean Filters Ensure Good Cabin Air Quality
The cabin air filter catches the dust, debris, and pollen that your car directly drives through. If the filter is left unserviced for enough time, it stops doing its job, and you start breathing in more pollution.
When Should I Change My Car's Cabin Air Filter?
If your last air filter replacement was more than a year or 15,000 miles ago, there's a high probability that it needs replacing. Other filter replacement signs and symptoms include:
- Persistent unusual, foul, stuffy, or chemical odors inside your car
- Reduced power and efficiency when using air conditioning
- Heating up your vehicle takes longer than usual, or heating isn't functioning well
- Strange noises accompany climate control use
