Cabin Filter Replacement

What’s important about a vehicle’s cabin air filter?

The cabin air filter in your vehicle is meant to keep debris, allergens, and other contaminants out of the cabin of your vehicle, where you and your passengers sit and drive. It’s typically found underneath and behind the glovebox compartment, or at the base of your vehicle’s windshield.

The cabin air filter clears out pollen, dust, and more as air travels through the ventilation, heating, and air conditioning system. When this filter becomes worn and clogged, these contaminants can find their way into various air systems and your vehicle’s cabin.

If you don’t regularly replace your cabin air filter, then the smells will sink into your vehicle interior and can damage other parts of your air conditioner and ventilation system. You will also be breathing in pollution and allergens that the filter would normally catch, as long as the filter is damaged or clogged.

Are you in need of an Cabin Air Filter Replacement?

If you start to notice or have been experiencing, any of the following, your cabin air filter could be in need of a replacement.

A few warning signs include:

Reduced airflow: One of the first symptoms of a clogged air filter that you might notice is the lacking air flow pumping through your air vents. The air pressure will feel weaker than normal.

Unpleasant scents: Because of the clogged debris and dust, the inside of your vehicle might begin to smell old and musty. Mold can also begin to grow on a clogged air filter, producing a moldy, wet smell.

Dust on cabin surfaces: With the filter not being able to catch as many contaminants, dust will begin to accumulate on the surfaces inside your vehicle.

Ice or fog on your windows: This results from mold, that collects and thrives off of moisture, growing in your cabin air filter. Humidity will begin to rise in your vehicle, which can produce fog or ice, depending on the temperature.

Increase in allergy symptoms: If you notice that your allergies worsen while driving, even when it isn’t allergy season, then it might be time to have a cabin air filter replacement.

Low whistle sound: You might begin to hear a slight whistling sound as the air struggles to pass through the clogged filter.

Seeing smoke: You might encounter smoke leaking from the air vents, or air-borne particles. This can suggest that your filter has torn or broken in some way and needs to be replaced.
