Changing an Air Cabin Filter Video
Air cabin filter are
a necessity for anyone needing to breath filtered air while in or driving a car.
While driving there are many impurities in the air that are made airborne by passing
cars. Every car in front of you is forcing the dust from the ground and into the
air.
When you turn on the
air conditioner
or heater this air cabin filter is
put into action. Like any filter it becomes dirty inhibiting the air flow through
the vents. When the air cabin filter gets plugged less air can pass through until
no air flow is experienced. Most automobiles have a air cabin filter easily replaceable
with everyday tools. The filter is located somewhere in the heating/air conditioner
duct work either under the dash or hood on the passenger side.
Replacing your car's air cabin filter is a relatively simple repair that can
be done in a few minutes with minor tools in most cases. The air cabin filter can
be sometimes referred as a hypo filter short for hypoallergenic filter. If you cannot
locate the air cabin filter in your car please consult the car's owner's manual.
Some cars are not equipped with an air cable filter so don't be alarmed if you cannot
find it.
When removing the air cabin filter use caution to not allow any excess debris
to enter the venting system. After the filter has been removed use a damp cloth
to wipe clean the air cabin filter housing and cover. The air cabin filter will
have a sealing gasket that helps trap dirt from getting around the filter. Either
the filter will come with a new one or simply reuse the old one.
