Cabin Air Filters Make a Difference in Three Important Areas
Having a super dirty cabin air filter can decrease your vehicle's air-conditioning, make your engine work harder, and can even reduce the amount of clean air that you breathe while driving.
Decreased Air Conditioning
Tons of people fear the worst when their air-conditioning seems to be on the fritz. Many times, the issue is a clogged cabin air filter. By cleaning the filter, many drivers see their AC come back to life.
Decreased Engine Power
A reduction in engine power can be the result of faulty air-conditioning due to a clogged filter. If the car is trying hard to pump out air through an obstructed filter, the engine will naturally try to compensate by working harder. Poor engine production could be a huge problem with an easy air filter fix.
Decreased Cabin Air Quality
The cabin air filter is responsible for catching all the dust, debris, and pollen that your car drives through. If you let the filter go unserviced for enough time, it stops doing its job, and you start breathing in more pollutants.
Should I Change My Cabin Air Filter?
If your last air filter replacement was 15,000 miles ago or more, there's an excellent chance 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
