What Does a Cabin Air Filter Do?

If you’re wondering, “What does a cabin air filter do?” it cleans the air that passes through the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems of your car’s interior. It works to keep out pollen, dust, dirt, and other contaminants. Still, as time goes on, you’ll have to replace it because it will inevitably get clogged, negatively affecting your car’s interior air quality.

How To Know When to Change a Cabin Air Filter

If you drive in an area around Friendswood or beyond that has poor air quality or lots of construction, or if you often drive in the desert or on dirt roads, you might need to change your cabin air filter more frequently. If you’re still unsure how often to change your cabin air filter, these are some warning signs to watch for on your Pearland drives:

  1. Limited air flow when your heat or air conditioning is on
  2. Lingering undesirable odors
  3. Increasing amounts of dust settling on your vehicle surfaces
