CABIN AIR FILTERS
Most modern vehicles have an air conditioning system to keep the driver and passengers cool. What is not commonly known is that the air conditioning ventilation system also has a filter, to filter out the dirt and dust in the air entering the ventilation system from outside.Thus, preventing the car’s occupants from breathing in air pollutants.
Benefits of changing a Cabin Air filter:
GUD cabin air filters are designed to reduce the number of harmful contaminants entering your vehicle via the air conditioning system, providing a much cleaner breathing environment for you and your passengers.
We offer a range of particle and carbon activated cabin air filters engineered to filter out harmful contaminants. In addition to filtering out contaminants, GUD carbon activated filters feature an activated charcoal layer that is designed to absorb harmful gases such as exhaust fumes and bad smells.
Cabin air filters should be changed every 15,000 kms or at least once a year. When the cabin air filter clogs up with dirt and other contaminants the airflow entering the vehicle’s interior is significantly reduced. Over time, the clogged filter can lead to musty odours and decreased air conditioner performance.
