Air conditioner filters need consistent care in order for your air conditioner to perform effectively. Dirty filters can greatly reduce performance while increasing the amount of energy being used. We recommend replacing your AC filter monthly in order to save energy and ensure proper functioning.

Indoor Air Quality

AC filters help remove contaminants from the air such as pet dander, mold, dust and smoke. They improve indoor air quality and make it easier to breathe.If you suffer from allergies, respiratory problems, asthma, eye irritation, headaches, and sinus problems, there is a good chance the air in your home is causing the problems. The Environmental Protection Agency has stated that indoor air pollution is one of the most crucial issues our environment faces. Make sure to keep your AC filters clean and replace them regularly to help improve indoor air quality in your home.

Avoid Expensive AC Repair

A dirty AC filter is the one of the main reasons that HVAC systems fail.  Air flow becomes restricted, placing tension on the air handler fan motor. When this happens, your system could overheat and fail to run properly. By replacing the dirty AC filter, it allows the air to flow correctly without dirt and dust damaging the evaporator coil. Make sure your AC filter is being properly maintained to prolong the life of your air conditioner and protect yourself financially.
