For a long time, I had a awful Heating as well as A/C habit, i decided to curb this habit when I discovered how harmful it could be… The awful habit I had was letting the air filter go for too long separate from changing it; Sometimes, I would take a look at the air filter as well as decide that it was still good, despite the fact that it was quite dirty.
I have a tendency to try as well as get the most out of everything I use, so sometimes, I continue to use things that I should just throw away.
I have that concern with tennis shoes, cars, as well as furniture, to name a few things, but well, I can tell you that it is not helpful to become overly affixed to air filters that have given up the ghost, so to speak. Such air filters should be relieved of their duties by fresh, scrub ones every few months, but however, I will confess that sometimes, I just completely forget about the air filter altogether! It took deliberate marking on my monthly planner as to when I installed the fresh air filter as well as when it was time to replace it. What drove me to start documenting when it was time to change my air filter is my discovery that not changing the air filter of an Heating as well as A/C system, far from being only mildly destructive, can be the root of just about every kind of heating as well as a/c concern that you can imagine! Simply neglecting to change the air filter could kill the life of your unit as well as cause you to have to make all sorts of fancy repairs that could have been easily avoided by a few seconds of labor every few months!
