Change out your air conditioner filters regularly

If you want your system to perform well and your air to be clean, you need to change out your AC filters on a regular basis. When a filter gets dirty, air can't pass through the filter without an extra push. This makes your air conditioner less efficient.

When you have dirty filters, you can expect to have high energy bills and a worn down AC. The best way to improve your AC's performance is to be diligent about changing out your filters. Although the frequency of replacement depends on how much you use your AC, you should change your air filters at least every four months. If you have pets or live in an area with high pollen, you should change your filters more frequently.

There's an easy way to figure out how frequently you need to change out your filters. check your filter once a month. If your filter is clean after the first month, you don't need to change it. But, if your filter is dirty, change it and remind yourself to do so every month.

Pay attention to signs of a dirty air filter

If you don't change out your filters, your AC will do more than just be inefficient. One of the most common reasons people need AC repairs is because of dirty filters. You might be in need of residential HVAC service because you haven't changed out your filters.

This is because a clogged filter demands a lot from your air conditioner. To allow air to flow through your system, the fans need to work overtime. It's only a matter of time before your fan or another component of your AC fails.

If your filter is dirty enough, the coils on your evaporator will freeze over. It doesn't matter if your coils thaw out; they will go through a cycle of freezing and reheating. If you don't replace the filters, your system could completely stop working.

Set reminders to change your filters

Setting reminders to change your filters is an important part of maintaining a healthy and clean environment, whether it be for your home or office. One helpful tip is to create a recurring reminder in your calendar or scheduling app. Set the reminder for a specific day or interval that aligns with the recommended filter replacement schedule for your specific air or water system. Additionally, you can also consider labeling or marking your filters with the date they were last changed, so you can easily track when it's time to replace them. By proactively setting reminders and staying on top of filter replacements, you can ensure that your air and water quality remain optimal and healthy for you and those around you.
