There's no calendar answer, and anyone who gives you one is guessing. It comes down to how much dirt road you cover. Check it every time you come off a dirt trip. Hold it up to the light: if you can't see through it, it's done. A choked filter throttles the airflow through the unit, and that's when the system stops earning its keep. Two minutes of your time and you know where you stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h4 page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eHow to change the DRS285 filter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo you need to get on the roof? No. It comes out through the ceiling cover from inside your van. Dometic designed the cover to open and close easily and rates the swap at a matter of seconds. Old one out, new one in, cover closed. Do it at home before a trip rather than in a dusty layby, and keep the old one until you're sure the new one seated properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-crafter-h4 page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003eWhy the genuine filter matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-crafter-div-container page-crafter-element-bottom-spacing\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe filter has to seal to the housing all the way around. A generic pad trimmed to roughly the right size leaves gaps at the edges, and air takes the easy path every time.
