Anyone here using Air Purifier to somehow clean their respective trucks? My wife bought this https://www.ramsareus.com/sku/1fa49403aa.html so we can be "safe" from Covid. I don't know but I think it's just hype marketing. Any thoughts?

Air Purifier?

It’s just a HEPA filter, ‘22 Rams now have PM2.5 Filters standard. Essentially the same thing as n95’s. Land Rover’s and other Euro/Asian cars use them a lot. They are kinda marketing but they do actually work. As for that Phillips, the principal is there. I’m in Aviation and my dad is in medicine, so I know HEPA filters work to at least some extent, Covid included.

If not mistaken, only the 1500s get the new “N95 bio filter.” Any confirmed reports on HDs?
I just changed the cabin filter on my '19 and it looked to be a simple filter card like all my previous Dodge's, nothing special about it.

Not much worried about Covid but Does it actively filter fart smells out of the cabin? Asking for a friend

Sp does the cabin filter filter the air inside the truck? Or just the fresh incoming air into the system?
Most of the ones I've seen just filter the fresh incoming air.

No it seals in the flavor
Flavor so strong you can taste it.
I wonder how that aftermarket filter system would work for those with allergies. I know someone who could use that.

I bet this helps if you have allergies. I am all in favor of air filters in cars and trucks and the factory provided cabin filter does an admirable job IMO. I replace mine often and use aftermarket charcoal-activated filter elements, which def help with odors (it was the dog’s fault). I don’t have allergies but if I did I would try to find a HEPA option.
RE Covid, research says filtration definitely helps but I would not put all of my rocks in that basket.
That's what the window lock button is for.

You're doing it wrong
That has to be the silliest thing i have read today…. Covid is not an airborn virus it is the flu… any air filter will do as all it does is takes the dust out of the air

I threw my Cabin air filter out the blower fan works better without it… i have not had a cabin air filter in anyother vehicle i have owned i dont see a point in putting a new one since the old one was plugged
What is the point of an air purifier the cab vents let any kind of air in anyway

take it up with the EPA and others that are saying this is the case.

Lmao i bet you jumped up and got the vaccine too because they said you should….
Did you remove your engine air filter too? It also gets dirty.

Been putting charcoal cabin filters in all vehicles that have a cabin filter... they have all helped significantly with my wife's allergies minimizing incoming allergens.
If there was something better I'd put that in the as well...

That’s what I’m talking about. Now it’s a thread worth being sub’d to.
