How Often to Change a Cabin Air Filter

It’s a good idea to change your cabin air filter at least once every 15,000 miles. Although some filters may last up to 30,000 miles in ideal conditions, the presence of excess pollen or pollution may cause a filter to expire more quickly. Since declining cabin air quality can make every drive less enjoyable, we always recommend that drivers err on the side of caution and schedule cabin air filter replacement once per year.

What Does a Cabin Air Filter Do?

You know how often it needs to be changed, but what does a cabin air filter do to improve your Jersey City and Fort Lee drives? As you might have guessed already, cabin air filters are responsible for cleaning the air that enters the cabin. Pollutants and irritants from the outside world are pulled into the filter as the air passes through your vehicle’s vents.

The cabin air filter performs an especially important function for drivers who have a respiratory condition—but everyone can notice the benefits that come with regular air filter replacement.
