We do a lot of things with our trucks. From daily driver to weekend hauler, they get us to and from and we have a lot of adventures in the cab of our pickups. With all of the miles we put on our engines, it is important to stick to a maintenance schedule that ensures we keep our rigs working at peak performance. One of the items that isn’t often checked during routine maintenance schedules is the cabin air filter.

For a long time, these were not original equipment in even the most expensive cars, but as trucks become more technologically advanced, they are receiving amenities like cabin air filters. These filters are similar to the one protecting your engine, but these protect something even more important, you and your family. Think about all the places your truck takes you and think about all the dirt, dust, mold, mildew, pollen, spores, fungus, and germs that you could be breathing after all your adventures. Without proper cabin air filter maintenance, you could be exposing yourself and your family to unnecessary harmful contaminants.

If your truck has a cabin air filter, it is probably made of thick, folded paper and it probably has seen better days. As particles collect on these paper filters, they flow less and less air. This puts a strain on the blower motor in your a/c system and could even force these potentially harmful pollutants into the cab of your truck. This is made even more problematic if you are an allergy sufferer, which according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, could be north of 50 million people.

One company has taken it upon themselves to make the cabin of your truck cleaner and healthier. K&N Engineering has been making engine air filters for several decades and they took what they learned with those to revolutionize the cabin air filter industry. K&N’s cabin air filters consist of an advanced synthetic filtration media. This material is coated in a hypoallergenic and biodegradable formula that makes the filter electrostatically charged as the air passes through it. This electrostatic charge helps to grab onto particles as air passes through the filter.
