BREATHE CLEANER AIR

Before winter sets in is a good time to check your cabin air filer, after it's been working hard all spring, summer, and fall.  Cabin air filters clean the incoming air and remove allergens, and according to the Car Care Council, should be replaced every 12,000 to 15,000 miles, or per the owner's manual.

The cabin air filter helps trap pollen, bacteria, dust and exhaust gases that may find their way into a vehicle's air conditioning and heating and ventilation systems.  The filter also prevents leaves, bugs and other debris from entering the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) system.

a dirty or clogged cabin air filter can cause musty odors in the vehicle and cause contaminants to become so concentrated in the cabin that passengers actually breathe in more fumes and particles when riding in the car compared to walking down the street.  A restricted cabin air filter can also impair airflow in the HVAC system, possibly causing interior heating and cooling problems, important for staying comfortable this winter. Over time, the heater and air conditioner may also become damaged by corrosion.

Make sure you have your cabin air filter checked and/or replaced before heading off to grandma's house for Thanksgiving.  Call today to schedule appointment (530) 621-4591 or click to schedule online www.theautoanalyst.com our technicians are standing by to make sure you arrive to your Thanksgiving destination safely.
