These MANN-FILTER filters combat mould, pollen, and particulate matter in car cabin air

Global filtration expert MANN+HUMMEL warns that every third vehicle interior is contaminated with bacteria, mould, particulate matter, pollen, and harmful gases.
An air conditioning system is indispensable for many people when they are driving in hot weather.
To ensure clean air flows into the vehicle interior, both the evaporator and the cabin air filter must be serviced or replaced regularly.
Dirty cabin air filters and poorly maintained
air conditioning systems can cause health risks. However, service intervals are often not
adhered to since most car drivers are not aware of them.
“It is really essential to regularly change the cabin air filter once a year or every 15,000 km,” MANN+HUMMEL Biofunctional Filter Materials Expert, David Keerl, said.
“And it is best to replace it with a highly efficient cabin air filter, such as our biofunctional
MANN-FILTER FreciousPlus.
“By filtering out mould, germs, bacteria and pollen, it generates clean and healthy air for passengers in the vehicle and also protects the air conditioning system from contamination.
“This extends the lifetime of the air conditioning system because it prevents deposits from forming on the fine structure of the evaporator and also maintains the system’s full cooling and heating capacity.”

A timely filter change improves performance
The heart of a cabin air filter is the filter medium. Over time and with increasing contamination, this medium slowly clogs and a “filter cake” forms in the pleats.
In heavily contaminated filters, the moisture present in the material also increases. This creates a breeding ground for germs and contaminates the filter and the immediate surroundings, even when the air conditioning system is not active.
The air flow rate also increasingly drops. If this affects the blower output, the risk of accidents increases because the windows fog up more quickly, and a dangerous blinding, greasy film forms on them.
Cabin air filters can only perform their meticulous cleaning work flawlessly if they are promptly replaced at the recommended service interval.
MANN+HUMMEL says it provides effective protection against contaminated air with its high-quality MANN-FILTER FreciousPlus cabin air filters in original equipment quality.
Every cabin air filter comes with detailed and easy to understand installation instructions.
MANN+HUMMEL says many vehicles can be easily upgraded with biofunctional FreciousPlus cabin air filters, stating that when changing the filter, the mechanic simply inserts the FreciousPlus in place of the previous cabin air filter.
