When Should You Replace Your Cabin Air Filter?

While every vehicle is a little different when it comes to when you should replace the cabin air filter, the general rule of thumb is to replace it either once a year or every 20,000 km (whichever one comes first). That way, the quality of the air inside your vehicle is safe and clean at all times. There are certain factors, such as if you often drive on dirt roads or go offroading, that make it more likely that you’ll want to replace your cabin air filter more often than every year though. If you’re uncertain if you need a new filter, take the time to have it checked by a professional.

Why It’s Important to Change Your Cabin Air Filter Regularly?

For those who have breathing difficulties or allergies, a clogged cabin air filter can be very dangerous. It’s a good idea, therefore, to get the cabin air filter replaced before the spring season gets into full swing to help combat high pollen days, and to also get it checked going out of summer to make certain you aren’t trapped with any contaminants in your cabin air filter during the colder months.

Your HVAC system has to work extra hard when your cabin air filter is clogged, which leads to more wear and tear on it as well as taking longer to regulate the cabin air temperature. Your windows can also take longer to clear once they’re fogged up due to a lack of good airflow. Add to that the musty smell your cabin air filter can cause inside your cabin when they’re dirty, and it becomes quite obvious when it’s time to get a replacement from a trained technician.
