Reasons to Change Your Air Filter Regularly

Your HVAC system is responsible for heating, cooling, and ventilating your living spaces. While the mechanical and electronic components play a predominant role in the HVAC unit’s function, the air filter’s value cannot be understated. This underappreciated part of the HVAC unit has many benefits, but it must be regularly changed if you want to continue enjoy its advantages. If you do not want to get messy or if your HVAC unit has become damaged, then call Rooter Hero to leave the filter replacement or repairs to a qualified technician. Our live representatives and dedicated technicians are always ready to help.

Improve Air Quality

Let’s start with the most obvious benefit. Air filters catch airborne particles such as dust, pollen, mold spores, and animal fur and prevent them from contaminating the breathing air in your living quarters. This is especially important if you or members of your household have allergies or asthma. Neglecting to change the air filter can make your indoor air quality worse than the outdoor air quality.

Increase Energy Efficiency

The HVAC system requires air to function. Clogged and dirty air filters force your HVAC system to work harder to cycle air through the system. This extra effort calls for more energy usage, resulting in higher energy bills. In this sense, changing the air filters can actually pay for themselves. Why throw money out the window? Save some money and do good for the environment by regularly changing the air filter.

Extend the Life of Your HVAC Unit

Dirt and grime in the air filter are going to strain your HVAC system, forcing it to work harder to push air through. Worse, the debris can get past the air filter and clog components of the HVAC system. An ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure. If you want to avoid frequent repairs or a premature replacement, then stay on top of your HVAC system’s maintenance. This is just another way that changing the air filter can save you money.

Maintain Temperature Control

As we mentioned earlier, dust and debris clogging up the HVAC system will force the unit to work harder than usual. This is going to take the unit longer to reach the desired temperature. Worse, the debris may cover components and sensors that manage the temperature. Regularly change your filters if you want to enjoy the desired temperature in your home.

How Often to Change Your Air Filter?

There is no golden rule for how often to change your air filter as it depends on your usage as well as the quality of the filters. Less expensive fiberglass filters, for instance, will typically need to be replaced once every couple of months while high end pleated filters can last as long as six months before a replacement.
