The Hidden Enemy in Your HVAC System

When it comes to maintaining a comfortable home environment, many homeowners overlook one of the most crucial components of their HVAC system: the air filter. At Brian & Sons, we’ve seen countless cases where a simple air filter replacement could have prevented major issues and improved overall system efficiency.

Why Air Filters Matter

Air filters play a vital role in your HVAC system by:

  • Trapping dust, pollen, and other airborne particles
  • Improving indoor air quality
  • Protecting your HVAC equipment from debris
  • Maintaining proper airflow throughout the system

The Consequences of Neglect

Failing to change your air filter regularly can lead to:

1. Reduced energy efficiency
2. Higher utility bills
3. Decreased indoor air quality
4. Increased wear and tear on HVAC components
5. Potential system breakdowns

How Often Should You Change Your Filter?

The frequency of air filter changes depends on various factors, including:

– Type of filter
– Home occupancy
– Presence of pets
– Local air quality

As a general rule, most homeowners should aim to change their filters every 1-3 months. However, it’s best to consult with a professional HVAC technician for personalized recommendations.
