How to distinguish the front and back of an air conditioning filter?

[DePiper]

Methods to distinguish the front and back of an air conditioning filter: 1. The arrow direction on the car air conditioning filter actually indicates the front and back sides. The direction of the arrow represents the airflow direction, which is also the installation direction. If the arrow points upward, that is the front side, which should face the airflow direction during installation. 2. You can also determine the front and back by observing the surface of the air filter. The ordinary fuzzy side is the front, facing upward toward the airflow direction, while the side with a support line structure is the back. The replacement cycle of a car air conditioning filter depends on individual driving habits, external environment, and seasonal climate. Generally, for urban household vehicles, it should be replaced every 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers or about once a year. If the driving environment is poor with more dust, the air conditioning filter tends to get dirty faster, and the replacement cycle should be shortened accordingly.
