Reasons To Get a Cabin Air Filter Replacement
It is generally recommended that you get your cabin air filter replacement service performed every 15,000 to 30,000 miles (or 10,000 miles in extreme cases). But what does that mean exactly for your beautiful Volvo XC90, Volvo V60, or stately Volvo S90? Here are more insights into car cabin air filter replacement:
- What is a cabin filter? A cabin filter is a relatively new addition to the HVAC systems in all vehicles. Initially, it was found in only high-end luxury vehicles, but nowadays, most vehicles (including economy cars) have them. They are similar to an engine air filter and are typically composed of fiber elements (either natural or synthetic). They are generally located behind the glove compartment, just before the blower motor.
- Do I have to change my cabin filter? This essential filter should be regularly changed to help keep allergens and other airborne particles out of your cabin. Additionally, if you purchased a vehicle that a smoker formerly used, the cabin filter may be full of ash and debris. Changing it will enhance the cleanliness of your vehicle. Over time, larger debris can impact your filter, which can turn into black mold and, in extreme cases, food sources for furry little critters.
- When should I change my cabin air filter? While the factory recommends you should change your air filter every 15,000 miles, we'd go out on a limb and say "as needed." Cabin air filter replacement cost is minimal, and the service is quick. So if you park under a tree, drive in dusty environments, and detect strange and unusual smells in the cabin, don't hesitate to change your cabin air filter.
