Did you know there is a cabin air filter in your car? Where is your cabin air filter? They are designed to remove a large amount of outside air pollutants and debris to keep you breathing easily when you drive.  And it is usually located in your glovebox. Talk to Drysdale Motors in Drysdale today about your cabin air filter !

Just like your air-conditioning at home, the filters need to be checked at regular intervals and changed when it has done it's job. Replacing your cabin air filter is important to your health and your cars health too!

The air outside your car can be polluted enough with smoggy city traffic or even dusty country roads, but research published in the Environmental Health Perspectives Journal shows that without an effective cabin air filter installed, the air inside your car can contain over 10 times more pollutants than the air outside.
This poor quality air can cause:

"Cabin air filters are designed to filter out contaminants while  absorbing noxious odours and harmful gases like exhaust and ozone,"  explained Ryco Filters General Manager of Sales & Marketing, Ross Lamb. Cabin air filters become clogged over time and their effectiveness at protecting your health declines. 

If you drive ‘Mum's Taxi', you might feel like you are always on the move - and a recent study into driving habits confirmed that parents with children aged 6-15 drive approximately 10% more than drivers without kids. And, the longer you spend in a vehicle with a Cabin Air Filter that needs replacing, the more you are at risk of health complications. 

As well as healthier air - an effective cabin air filter means you get better fuel performance from your vehicle. A clogged cabin air filter will cause your air conditioner to work harder than it needs to and this means it uses more fuel and your air conditioning system is more likely to have a costly breakdown.

At Drysdale Motors in Drysdale we check your cabin air filter as part of our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report which you can request with every full car service.
For a more comprehensive check of your air condition system we recommend an air conditioning service.

Cabin air filter replacement is not only important to your car's health - it affects yours too.

Few experiences are more disconcerting than climbing into your vehicle on a hot day, flipping on the air conditioning, and encountering only a hot blast of air. Besides making your driving experience uncomfortable, a faulty car air conditioning system can potentially have an adverse impact on your overall vehicle performance. 

When it comes to Car Air Conditioning, Drysdale Motors (AU18848) have you covered. We can offer Regas, Repairs, Service and Inspections for Drysdale and its surrounding areas.

One common problem encountered with car air conditioning systems is inefficient cooling. Signs of a failing air conditioning system include the emission of warmer air than usual, abnormal noises when the A/C system is running, foul smells originating from the vents, and the system shutting down entirely. 

If your vehicle's air conditioning system is manifesting any of these signs, it may indicate problems such as a refrigerant leak, blocked/clogged condenser, faulty compressor, or a problematic electrical system. Regardless of the potential cause, the resultant effect is clear: discomfort for the occupants and an unexpected hole in your pocket if the problem escalates and eventually damages the entire A/C system.

Modern vehicles are extremely complex and just like the engine your automotive air conditioning system has components that need to be serviced or replaced on a regular basis to ensure continued reliable and efficient operation.

Drysdale Motors Car Air Conditioning Auto Facts

It is essential to periodically assess the rubber seals for any signs of leaking or corrosion.

Regular servicing of your vehicle's air conditioning system by a professional team like ours at Drysdale Motors cannot be overemphasised. A healthy A/C system ensures that you enjoy cool, refreshing air circulation within your vehicle during hot periods and equally enjoy de-misted windows during the colder months.

Having your car's air con serviced on a yearly basis not only helps prevent costly breakdowns and the build-up of hazardous substances, but it is also economical in the long run, since a well-serviced air conditioning unit uses less fuel.

Additionally, routine checks and servicing provide a proactive measure to detect potential problems that could spiral into costlier repairs if neglected. In fact, the negligible cost of routine maintenance and the convenience of avoiding discomfort greatly outweigh the likely high expense and inconveniences you'd bear when the system breaks down unexpectedly.
