Activated-carbon cabin filter vs particle filter

The choice between an activated-carbon cabin filter and an ordinary particle one affects what the car protects you from while driving.

The particle filter

It traps pollen, dust and larger solid particles. That’s basic protection, cheaper and sufficient for many drivers.

The carbon filter (with activated carbon)

• Additionally absorbs unpleasant smells and exhaust fumes
• Better in traffic jams and city driving
• Recommended for allergy sufferers and sensitive people
• Slightly more expensive than an ordinary particle filter

Whatever the type, the cabin filter is worth changing regularly — it affects your health and the efficiency of the air conditioning.
