As spring arrives, it’s time to give your HVAC system some much-needed attention. One of the most important — yet often overlooked — components of spring HVAC maintenance is the air filter. Air filters play a crucial role in keeping your system running smoothly and maintaining healthy indoor air quality.
Throughout winter, air filters collect dust, pet dander, pollen, and other airborne particles. By spring, these filters are usually clogged, forcing your HVAC system to work harder to circulate air. This not only reduces efficiency but can also lead to higher energy bills and poor air quality in your home.
Replacing or cleaning air filters in the spring is essential to ensure proper airflow. A clean filter allows your system to operate efficiently, reducing strain on the equipment and extending its lifespan. Additionally, fresh filters improve indoor air quality, which is especially important during spring allergy season when pollen levels rise.
Neglecting air filters can cause various issues, including reduced airflow, uneven cooling, and even system breakdowns. Dirty filters can also lead to an accumulation of dust inside the system, causing wear and tear on vital components.
To keep your HVAC system performing at its best, check and replace your air filters every 1-3 months, depending on usage and household factors like pets or allergies.
