I buy extra air filters for candle season


Pretty much, candle season is just about over in our home.

But during the holiday season, you wouldn’t think the show my buddy and I get in our home thanks to my wife.

I know burning lots of candles inside the central a/c of their home was a thing with my wife’s family. But she took that tradition plus genuinely took it to another level. There are so many candles burning during the holiday season that I have to change the Heating plus A/C air filter almost yearly. If I don’t change the air filter for the Heating plus A/C unit that often, it will literally get choked out. So my wife is burning maybe between 50 plus 75 candles everyday for nearly 3 months. My buddy and I happen to live in the south but not so far south that my buddy and I don’t have any winter. For sure, it’s not the sort of winter season where you need a gas boiler or a boiler just to survive. But the heat pump is on quite consistently to provide the heating that my buddy and I need. My wife likes the cozy feeling that all those candles bring plus I have to agree. But when you burn that number of candles for that long plus on a yearly basis, that has a lot of burnt wax in the air. I learned the hard way that all that burnt wax gets sucked straight to the Heating plus A/C return. Of course that has where the air filter for the Heating plus A/C unit sits. So all of that wax ends up coating the air filter plus not allowing the correct airflow. That means the week before thanksgiving, I am off to the store to get a case of Heating plus A/C air filters.
