An automotive snorkel is a device designed to allow a vehicle to draw in air from an elevated position, typically above the water level. It is commonly used in off-road vehicles, such as 4x4s, trucks, and SUVs, to enable safe water crossings without the risk of water entering the engine's air intake system. Here are some key features and aspects of automotive snorkels: Raised Intake Point: The primary function of a snorkel is to provide a higher intake point for air compared to the stock air intake system. This helps prevent water from entering the engine during river crossings or other water obstacles. Waterproof Design: Automotive snorkels are typically designed with a waterproof or water-resistant construction to ensure that water doesn't seep into the engine. This involves a sealed air intake system and a water-tight connection between the snorkel and the vehicle's body. Durable Materials: Snorkels are made from durable materials like UV-resistant plastics or polyethylene to withstand harsh off-road conditions and exposure to the elements. Installation: Installing a snorkel usually involves attaching the snorkel to the vehicle's A-pillar (the vertical support between the windshield and the front side window) and connecting it to the air intake system. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and alignment. Improved Dust Filtration: In addition to water protection, snorkels can help in situations with dusty or sandy environments by drawing in cleaner air from a higher point, reducing the risk of clogging the air filter with debris. Off-Road Utility: While snorkels are commonly associated with water crossings, they also serve a purpose in dusty or muddy off-road conditions where the stock air intake might be more susceptible to contaminants. It's IMPORTANT to Note that while a snorkel provides a valuable upgrade for off-road enthusiasts, it doesn't make a vehicle completely waterproof. Drivers should exercise caution and ensure that water depths are within the vehicle's capabilities when attempting water crossings. Regular maintenance and inspection of the snorkel system are also crucial to ensure its effectiveness and reliability.
