How to Distinguish the Front and Back of an Air Conditioning Filter?

Air conditioning filters use arrow directions to indicate the front and back sides. Generally, the direction marked by the arrow represents the airflow direction, which is the installation direction. The arrow pointing upwards indicates the front side, which should face the airflow direction during installation. You can also determine the front and back sides by observing the surface of the air filter. Typically, the fuzzy side is the front, while the side with a support structure is the back. The air conditioning filter is a type of filter installed in the car's air conditioning system. It can absorb fine particles, alleviate respiratory discomfort, reduce irritation for allergy sufferers, and protect the air conditioning cooling system. When driving with the air conditioning on, the car draws in external air into the cabin. However, the air contains various particles such as dust, pollen, soot, abrasive particles, ozone, odors, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, benzene, etc. Without the air conditioning filter, these particles can enter the cabin, contaminating the car's air conditioning and reducing the performance of the cooling system.
