Fram Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter CF11663 with Arm & Hammer Baking Soda — Activated Carbon, Odor-Reducing for Select Buick/Chevro

FRAM Fresh Breeze CF11663 is a replacement cabin air filter that combines activated carbon with embedded Arm & Hammer baking soda to reduce odors and trap airborne particles entering your vehicle's HVAC system. Air inside a vehicle can concentrate pollen, road dust, smoke and other irritants; the FRAM Fresh Breeze cabin air filter is engineered to capture many of those particles while neutralizing common odors before they circulate through vents. Designed for select Buick, Chevrolet, GMC and Saturn models, this filter emphasizes cleaner cabin air and helps maintain HVAC efficiency when installed regularly.

How does this filter reduce smells and airborne particles?

The CF11663 uses a multi-layer media that combines activated carbon with Arm & Hammer baking soda embedded into the filter fibers. The carbon adsorbs many volatile compounds and common odors while the baking soda provides additional deodorizing action.

• Activated carbon layer for adsorption of odors and gases
• Arm & Hammer baking soda embedded for natural deodorizing
• Multi-fiber particle media captures pollen, dust, and smoke
• Designed to balance filtration with steady airflow
