Understanding your filters
​
LIKE A DRYER, YOUR INDOOR UNIT has filters that need to be emptied. They play an important role in keeping dirt, dust and pet dander away from the unit's coils.
Clean filters allow a unit to function at peak performance, and contribute to the air quality in your home.
Dirty or blocked filters can cause 2 problems for your system:
​
less PERFORMANCE
Your unit system can experience a 20-30% reduction in air circulation, which will reduce heat and air conditioning
SYSTEM STRESS
Reduced air circulation potentially reduces the life of the compressor, which is an expensive repair
