Winter is on its way, bringing snow and cold to Southwest Ohio. No one wants to be caught in a blizzard with a crippled furnace, so now’s a good time to make sure your furnace is ready for the challenge by inspecting the air filter and changing it if necessary.
Regular filter changes are essential to keep your furnace operating at its peak. Over time, dust and dirt clog the filter, which means your HVAC system’s motor will have to work harder to drive air through the system. Prolonged use with a dirty filter can result in higher energy bills, disappointing performance, reduced air quality and costly maintenance.
Many furnace models require filter changes every month for optimal performance. However, other models only require a replacement every three months or longer. Other factors, such as filter type, amount of use, and conditions in your home also affect the need for filter replacement.
