AC Filter Replacement
One of the major keys of a functioning AC system is the filters. More importantly, changing the filters on a regular basis. AC filter replacement is one of the most slacked on responsibilities of being an AC owners. That’s why we make it simple. We work one on one with you to find what type of filter is the best fit for your unit. And then we can handle the replacement for you! It doesn’t get easier than that and your system will thank you for it.
Fiberglass Filters
Fiberglass filters are easily the most common used on the market. They’re cheap to purchase and you simply throw them away when you’re done with one. They come in a variety of sizes so you can find one for almost any AC system on the market. But be warned that the cheap price tag does reflect the filter’s capabilities. They are the lowest quality, but will get the job done. Just don’t expect these filters to catch every single particle that could be a nuisance to your home.
Polyester Filters
Sometimes also labeled as pleated filters, polyester filters are another popular choice. They are around the same price range as the fiberglass filters, but are slightly better in quality. They’re more resistant to air flow, so they’ll last longer. And they catch more dust than their fiberglass counterparts. It’s worth paying any small additional costs to use polyester if it fits your system’s requirements. Your lungs will be much better off for it. And isn’t that one of the major reasons for an AC filter?
Washable Filters
These are not a common choice because they are more expensive and take more hands on work. But washable filters make up for their price in their quality. They catch far more than their disposable counterparts. Because of this, they get clogged up and dirty faster. Which is good because it means it’s doing its job. Every once and awhile, you can check your filter and, when it’s ready to be cleaned, you simply take it out and follow the cleaning directions. The most commons ones use a hose and some have the ability to be vacuumed. Washable filters have various lifespans depending on the make and size. But many can last for a year or more. Ask your assigned technician for more information and we’ll be more than happy to help!
