Decent, but it's tough on the environment.

TL;DR A disposable OEM-spec panel filter for the 2.0L Atkinson hybrid engine, cross-referenced to Honda OE 17220-5K0-A00 and confirmed fitment across two independent cross-reference databases. Premium Guard cites no test standard for its "up to 99%" filtration claim, so treat that figure as an uncited manufacturer statement rather than a lab-verified spec.
The PA9944 is a disposable molded-panel filter built for the 2.0L Atkinson hybrid intake, cross-referencing directly to Honda OEM 17220-5K0-A00. Premium Guard states the media captures up to 99% of dirt and airborne particles, but cites no ISO 5011 or SAE J726 test standard, so the figure is treated as an unverified manufacturer claim rather than lab-confirmed data. Fitment for the 2020-2022 model year is confirmed against two genuinely independent sources: a genuine Honda dealer-parts page for this exact OE number, and an independent cross-reference table listing this part alongside the same Honda OEM number. Premium Guard does not publish a SKU-specific replacement interval; its general company guidance points to the standard 10,000-12,000 mile OEM-equivalent window.
Right pick for a 2020-2022 CR-V Hybrid owner who wants a confirmed OEM cross-reference replacement for Honda 17220-5K0-A00 priced meaningfully below Honda's own dealer part and doesn't need independently verified filtration test data for a straightforward panel-filter swap. Skip if your CR-V runs the 1.5L turbo or 2.4L gas engine (different OEM filters entirely) or if your CR-V Hybrid is a 2023-or-newer model, since that generation uses a different OEM part number that this filter's confirmed cross-reference does not extend to.
Passive replacement component with no chemical exposure pathway during installation or removal; no SDS applies. The environment score of 4 reflects the disposable lifecycle: a single-use filter replaced roughly every 10,000-12,000 miles generates solid waste at each service interval, and the molded-frame, pleated-media construction offers limited recyclability in most municipal programs.

Yes, for the 2020-2022 model years. It cross-references to Honda OEM 17220-5K0-A00, the genuine air filter for the 2.0L Atkinson hybrid engine, confirmed against two independent cross-reference databases. It does not fit the CR-V's 1.5L turbo or 2.4L gas engines, which use different OEM filters.
No. The 2023-and-newer hybrid platform uses a different OEM part number than the 2020-2022 application this filter cross-references. Confirm your model year's OEM part number before ordering.
No. Premium Guard states the media captures up to 99% of dirt and airborne particles but does not cite ISO 5011 or SAE J726 test results, or any other named test standard, for this specific filter.
Premium Guard does not publish a filter-specific mileage figure. The company's general guidance points to the standard 10,000-12,000 mile OEM-equivalent interval. Consult your owner's manual for guidance specific to your driving conditions.
Premium Guard does not specify the sealing material for this filter. No natural rubber (latex) claim was found in the listing or manufacturer spec, consistent with standard construction for this filter class.
