For the peak operation of the heater, keeping a clean heating system is essential.
The filter is designed to prevent dust, pollen, lint and other debris and contaminants from getting inside the unit.
If the filter becomes obstructed, it will no longer be effective. Pollutants will infiltrate the inner toilings and obstruct airflow. The buildup will compromise the operation of the motor and all moving parts. The heating system will be forced to run longer and more often, experiencing greater wear and tear and increasing the risk of malfunction. Comfort, efficiency and indoor air quality suffers. The heating system will cost more every month and honestly not last as long. While annual maintenance by a licensed and certified Heating and A/C corporation is important to optimize the heating capacity and reliability of the heating equipment, filter replacement is just as vital. The heating system filter needs to be changed at least every ninety afternoons. It’s a good idea to check the air filter every thirty afternoons. There are situations where replacement needs to be more frequent. Whenever the air in the dwelling is especially dusty, such as while in dwelling renovations, the filter will clog more hastily. If there are pets that shed fur and dander, that debris will end up in the filter. If anyone in the house suffers from asthma or dust sensitivities, clean air is especially important. Changing the heating system filter helps to improve indoor air quality. When the weather is extremely hot or cold, requiring the heating or cooling system to run consistently, there will be more dust circulating and compromising the filter.
