Conditioning Filter and Its Classification

What is an air conditioning filter?

An air conditioning filter's function is to filter the outside air, filtering out solid impurities such as dust and grinding particles, absorbing harmful substances and moisture in the air, ensuring that the air inside the car is fresh, odor-free, and free of pollutants.

Harm caused by not replacing the air conditioning filter in time
The role of the air conditioning filter is to filter the air. However, after prolonged use, the air volume that the air conditioning filter can filter will decrease. At this time, we may feel that the wind blowing from the air outlet is not as strong or not as large. In addition, in humid environments, the air conditioning filter is prone to mold and bacterial growth, which can cause musty or odor when using the air conditioning. Furthermore, there may also be activated carbon in the air conditioning filter, and the adsorption and filtration function of activated carbon used for a long time will also decrease. Therefore, the air conditioning filter needs to be replaced regularly, usually once a year.

Low-quality air conditioning filters are difficult to filter impurities due to rough workmanship and poor material quality. The low-quality air conditioning filters use ordinary paper, so the quality is poor and it is easy to produce mold, which is very harmful to your body when you use the air conditioning. Like air filters, air conditioning filters are generally located in the passenger glove box of the car and are relatively easy to remove. You can check them yourself while driving.

Classification of air conditioning filters
Air conditioning filters are generally divided into two categories: ordinary air conditioning filters and activated carbon series air conditioning filters. Ordinary air conditioning filters are usually made of a specific environmentally friendly filtering material that has been processed and folded, mostly white single-layer. The activated carbon series air conditioning filter is made of activated carbon filter cloth made by compounding two non-woven fabrics with tiny particles of activated carbon sandwiched in the middle, and then deep processing into an air conditioning filter. Ordinary air conditioning filters can only suppress the entry of dust and particles, while activated carbon series air conditioning filters can use the physical properties of activated carbon particles themselves to adsorb other small particles in the air and more harmful substances during a short period of time when the air passes through blockage.
