ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Air filter

An air filter is like a special screen that helps clean the air we breathe in our houses, cars, and other places. Just like how we take a shower to get rid of all the dirt from our body, an air filter helps to get rid of dirt, dust, and other small particles that are floating in the air.

These tiny particles can make us sneeze, cough, or even cause health problems for some people. The air filter works like a net that traps these small particles as the air flows through it. When we replace the old filter with a new one, it helps to keep the air clean and fresh.

So, it's like having a magic guard that keeps the air we breathe clean and healthy for us!
