Does My Hyundai Need a Pollen Filter? | Phil Gilbert Hyundai

Does My Hyundai Need a Pollen Filter?

Typically hidden under the dashboard or behind the glove compartment, pollen filters (also known as cabin filters) are in virtually every vehicle built over the past couple of decades. Pollen filters are often confused with engine air filters, but they perform an entirely different and equally important. Pollen filters are designed to remove contaminants from the air that circulates inside your vehicle's cabin.

How a Pollen Filter Works

Pollen filters are a key component of your car’s ventilation system and helps ensure proper ventilation system function and the health and safety of all passengers. It works like a kitchen sieve, removing pollutants from the air that comes in through the ventilation system and circulates throughout the cabin, ensuring:

●     Airborne dust and pollen are removed from inside the vehicle

●     Improved heating and air conditioning performance

●     Reduced allergy related problems

●     Cleaner air in the vehicle cabin

With a proper filter, the air inside the cabin can have higher levels of harmful and odorous exhaust gases than the air outside of the cabin. This is because other vehicles on the road leave tunnels of exhaust fumes in their wake. Pollen filters remove these gases from the air before they enter the cabin.
