It’s summertime, which means hot weather, beaches, barbecues, and road trips. But it is also the perfect time to change your car’s air filters! Many people wait until their car starts making strange noises or notice a decrease in fuel efficiency before changing their air filters.
But did you know summer is the best time to do this? Here are six reasons why:
During the summer, your car is stressed due to the hot weather. The air conditioner works overtime to keep you cool, and the engine has to work harder to maintain operating temperature. This means that your car’s engine is sucking in more air, which can cause dust and dirt in the engine air filter.
If you have allergies, you know that summertime means dealing with pollen. Unfortunately, your car’s air filter has to deal with it too. Over time, the pollen can clog up the air filters, making it harder for your car to breathe.
If you deal with allergies, you know how irritating it is to sneeze and sniffle. Unfortunately, your car’s cabin air filter may also be responsible for similar symptoms if you are allergic to something other than pollen. When you switch on the air conditioning, pollen and other accumulated particles in your air filter will be pumped back into the cabin.
You can reduce the number of allergens in your car and make summers a bit more comfortable by regularly replacing your air filter.
During the summer, people tend to take more road trips and go on vacation. This means you’re probably putting more miles on your car than usual. And the more you drive, the dirtier your air filters get.
Due to increasing demand in the summer, gas prices often climb. Changing the engine air filter is a great place to start if you want to reduce fuel expenses. A blocked airflow from an engine’s air filter can force it to work harder and burn more gasoline.
Changing the air filter can make your car run more efficiently and spend less on gas.
The hot weather might cause your engine to overheat, which is another reason to update your car’s air filter before summer. The internal parts of your engine may become damaged if it overheats.
The air filter is in charge of preventing particles from entering the engine. If the air filter is clogged, less air will pass through the engine, which will cause it to overheat.
So there you have it! Six good reasons to change your car’s air filter this summer. Not only will it help your car run better, but it can also improve your gas mileage. So why wait? Go get your air filter changed today!
