yung foam filtler lang gamit sa mga Overhead Filter ng mga aquariums. tanong ka lang sa mga petshops na may tinda ng gamit sa aquarium meron yan malamang. mura lang yan. less than 50 lang, 30 nga lang ata eh.

Sa GE ko din tinanggal ko na yung filter. Napansin ko kase na ang hina na ng buga tapos pagtingin ko sobrang dumi. Good thing I found this thread, subukan ko suggestions nyo kung ganon talaga kamahal ang OEM.

In my case, my older Jazz 1.3's A/C blower doesn't have the little drawer that houses the cabin air filter - in other words, technically it's not supposed to have a cabin air filter. So I'm restricted to using just a sheet of Filtrete every two months stretched across the air blend box.

Glad to know the aquarium filter extends the life of the Filtrete, but it's a shame I can't quite use it.

Another caveat with Filtrete is it decreases the overall power of the blower by about 20%, at least on my blower...but it's a small price to pay for cleaner air and, I'm told, longer service intervals for the A/C system itself. It's surprising how dirty the Filtrete sheet gets after just two or three months.

Yung sa 09 jazz ko hindi sya tray type so orig talaga dapat na cabin airfilter. Sa Rav4 every 2 months palit ko ng Filtrete since mura lang naman siya around 800 yung pinaka malaking size. Sana pwede mag DIY na pleated siya parang knn drop in filters yung size para lumaki yung surface area niya at tumagal ang life ng filtrete.

Sakin din medyo mahina na yung buga. Need ng palitan yung aircon filter ng GE ko. Stick muna ko sa OEM baka ma void yung warranty ng aircon.

Madali lang tanggalin bro yung filter dun sa glove compartment. Pwede mo ibalik yung OEM filter kung sakaling time for PMS mo na. Wala pa kong oras din kase maghanap ng aftermarket filter kung meron man.

Medyo magulo yata hehe. Magkaiba yung Cabin Air Filter to Aircon Filter right?

For my car, yung cabin filter is makikita between the hood and windshield while the aircon filter is sa glove compartment.

Actually, wala nga sya filter eh meron lang sya abang, so need pa bilhan ng OEM or DIY.

Mga boss sorry di ko talaga makita sa google yung Aquarium Filter, baka po pwede pa-post naman dito.

Thanks-BS

The aquarium filters I see look much like bulky packed cotton. I'm no expert on aquariums as I don't have one though.

When you make those into a DIY cabin air filter like we've been discussing (which is the same as an aircon filter really), the aquarium filter material will take care of the bigger impurities while the Filtrete layer will sieve the smaller particles from the air.

Hi Sir,

Thanks for the prompt reply. Sorry for mixed-up on my previous post. I should comparing Air Vent Filter and Aircon Filter pala "dapat" for my car.

Ok sir alam ko na yung Aquarium filter, nagkaroon din kase ako ng alaga na isda few years ago :D.

So next question is, How do we apply the 3M Filtrete and Aquarium filter? Naiisip ko is 1 layer of 3M filtret then aquarium filter in between then another layer of 3M filtret? In short, parang sandwich yung aquarium filter?

Thanks-BS
