Want to extend the life of your HVAC system and save money on repairs? Preventative maintenance is keyโand one of the simplest steps is regularly changing your air filter.
A dirty or clogged filter restricts airflow, making your system work harder and less efficiently. Most experts recommend checking your filter every month and replacing it at least every 1โ3 months, depending on your home, pets, and local conditions. A fresh filter can improve air quality, lower energy bills, and help prevent costly breakdowns.
Besides filter changes, itโs smart to schedule annual professional checkups, keep outdoor units clear of debris, and check for any unusual noises or leaks.
