Changing out your air filter is an easy chore and there are several benefits such as:
Enhanced Indoor Air Quality
Air filters clean your air as it moves around your residence by confining dirt and debris. If you have a family member suffering from allergies or asthma, a quality air filter can do great things to minimize the symptoms or negative impact from poor air quality. And if you have a pet, you know pet dander is a constant battle. A quality, clean air filter will allow you to breathe easy.
Extend the Life and Efficiency of Your System
An unclean air filter is one of the leading causes of system interruptions.
