Cabin air filters put the joy back into driving
The air that flows into your vehicle through the ventilation ducts while driving may contain up to five times more exhaust gases, dirt, dust and other pollutants than fresh air. The only barrier between these pollutants and the occupants of your vehicle is the cabin air filter, which is why it is important to replace it every year, every 12,000 miles or as recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer.
Vehicle cabin air filters remove up to 90% of even the tiniest harmful particulates (up to 1µm, in size) creating a barrier between passengers and the incoming air. A MANN-FILTER cabin air filter separates nearly all fine PM2.5 particulates (up to 95%) – the damaging micro-organisms contained in dust, dirt, pollen, exhaust fumes, smoke and other pollutants. Some of these are smaller than 3% of the diameter of a human hair. Which shows how powerful and effective a cabin air filter is.
