Why You Should Replace Your Cabin Air Filter

Benefits of Replacing a Cabin Air Filter

Many benefits come with replacing the cabin air filter in your vehicle. It may seem like a minor part of the car's maintenance schedule, but you'll immediately start to notice the effects if you leave a clogged filter in your vehicle. It can make the air cleaner and allow less dust, pollen, and dirt to circulate with a new filter installed. Your air conditioning and heating system in the vehicle will also operate more efficiently to ensure you can control the climate in the car.

A new cabin air filter reduces the strain placed on the parts in the HVAC system, allowing them to last longer over time. This can reduce the risk of repairs.

How Often Should I Replace My Cabin Air Filter?

It's essential to keep track of when you last replaced your cabin air filter to determine when a new part needs to be installed. You can drive another 15,000 to 30,000 miles until the filter becomes too clogged. If you live in a setting with many dirt roads or excess smog in the air, you'll need to install the part sooner. Most experts recommend installing a new cabin air filter every 5,000 miles.

There are also a few signs to look for to determine if your car's cabin air filter is no longer working. You may notice there's less circulation in the vehicle. Strong musky smells may also develop in the car, especially when using the HVAC system. You may also see a lot more dust that accumulates on the dashboard.
