In Brief

Specialists from Mann-Filter and Camping-car Magazine advise changing the motorhome cabin filter once a year or every 15,000 km. The FreciousPlus model traps up to 95% of particles, while carbon filters remove gases and allergens

After winter storage, the air inside a motorhome CAN be five times dirtier than outside. Experts recommend replacing the cabin filter annually or every 15,000 kilometers.

Manufacturer recommendations

Mann-Filter (MANN-FILTER) advises using activated carbon or bioactive filters. The FreciousPlus model captures up to 95% of fine particles, reduces allergens, and inhibits bacterial growth. Carbon filters additionally neutralize harmful gases.

Replacement is especially important after long idle periods to prevent mold. Filters are available for common platforms including Fiat Ducato and Mercedes Sprinter
