Replacing your air filter is essential for keeping your AC system working.
Not only does an air filter affect your unit’s cooling power, and
your family’s comfort, but it also impacts the quality of air your
family is breathing and can even send energy bills skyrocketing. At Del-Air
Heating & Air Conditioning, we are passionate about helping homeowners
save money while staying comfortable in their homes. Keep the air flowing
freely through the unit and keep your home comfortable with these five
tips from Del-Air, leaders in
AC service.
- Determine your filter replacement frequency: As a homeowner, you might
not know that different air filter types have different lifespans. As
a result, they need to be changed at various frequencies. Neglecting to
change your filter at the appropriate time could affect the quality of
air your family is breathing and even increase the frequency with which
you suffer from colds and allergy symptoms.
- Buy your air filters in bulk: Air filters probably aren’t a typical
item on your shopping list. To ensure you always have a filter on hand,
consider buying these essential items in bulk.
- Get in the routine of changing the filters on schedule: Dirty filters wreak
havoc on your AC system. Not only does neglecting to change your filter
impact efficiency, making your system work harder to do the same job,
but it can also result in you having to buy a new AC sooner rather than
later. We recommend changing them every month when your power bill comes in.
- Always use a correctly sized air filter: A filter that’s properly
sized for your AC system will achieve better results than one that is
too large or too small. In fact, undersized filters can allow dust and
debris to enter around the edges. If you aren’t sure what size filter
you have, simply remove it and examine the dimensions. In most cases,
the length, height, and width are printed on the filter’s side.
- Don’t guess when it comes to replacing the air filter: Not sure how
best to complete your air filter replacement? Call the professionals at
Del-Air for assistance.
