Cleaning of Heavy Duty Air Filters

Some factors to consider when deciding if cleaning or washing air filters is the right thing to do for your vehicle or fleet.

  • Manufacturers do not recommend any type of cleaning or washing of air filters.
  • After thorough cleaning, heavy duty air filters have only 80% of their original capacity at best.
  • Every time the air intake system is serviced, it is exposed to the chance of contamination to the system.
  • Heavy duty air filter manufacturers will not waranty their products once they have been cleaned.
