Air Filters & Filtration

Regularly changing your air filters, for HVAC and indoor air quality systems, is crucial:

Cleaner Air

• Reduced Pollutants: Filters trap dust, allergens, pet dander, mold spores, and other airborne contaminants that can trigger allergies, asthma, and respiratory problems. Regularly changing filters prevents these pollutants from circulating in your home.
• Odor Control: Filters can help absorb unpleasant smells.

Increased Efficiency & Savings

• Improved System Performance: Clogged filters restrict airflow, forcing your HVAC system to work harder to maintain desired temperatures. This leads to higher energy consumption and higher utility bills. Regularly changing filters optimizes airflow, allowing your system to operate efficiently.
• Extended Equipment Lifespan: A clean filter protects your HVAC system from dust and debris build-up, preventing wear and tear, and extending its lifespan. This saves you money on costly repairs or replacements in the long run.

Additional Benefits

• Reduced Fire Risk: Dust and debris build-up on filters can create a fire hazard. Regular changes minimize this risk and ensure safe system operation.
• Protected Investment: By maintaining your HVAC system properly with regular filter changes, you protect your investment and avoid potential breakdowns or malfunctions.

TIPS:

• Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific filters, and adjust based on your environment (e.g., dusty areas, pets).
• Use high-quality filters (with good Maximum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) ratings to trap more particles).
• Change filters monthly during allergy seasons and quarterly otherwise.
