The Benefits of a Clean Air Filter
There are many benefits to keeping your home’s air filters clean. Some of these benefits include but are not limited to:
- Improved Air Quality: It’s estimated that the air we breathe indoors is up to five times more polluted than the air we breathe outside. An air filter’s job is to reduce the amount of debris and allergens that enter and circulate in our homes so when they are dirty, they can’t exactly keep us protected.
- Money Saver: A dirty air filter that has trapped debris causes your AC or furnace work a lot harder to do its job. This means that it needs to consume even more energy just to operate, increasing energy costs and draining your wallet.
- Increased Need for Repairs: When our air filters become clogged, the airflow is decreased meaning the components of your cooling or heating system can quickly get worn out. This decreases the life of your AC/furnace and increases the need for frequent repairs.
If you or someone in your family suffers from allergies and respiratory issues, keeping up with your filter replacement schedule is the best way to help. At Swick Home Services, we understand you have enough to worry about, so let us handle your routine filter replacement needs!
How Often Should You Change Your Air Filter?
To keep your home free of floating allergens and contaminants caused by a dusty air filter, Swick Home Services recommends that you change your filters at least once a month. This will increase the life of your AC/furnace and ensure that your family stays warm during the winter and cool during the summer. Some additional signs that it’s time to replace your filters include:
- You notice dust around the air filters or your home is dustier than normal
- You and your family frequently get sick or feel congested
- You can smell the odor of dust in your home
- Mold or mildew is present around your AC/furnace
