Breathe easy this spring: Don’t forget your AC filter during spring cleaning

Posted

As the days grow longer and signs of spring fill the air, like birds chirping, warm breezes, and blooming flowers, it’s the perfect time to refresh your space. While you’re tidying up and clearing out clutter, don’t overlook one of the most important and often forgotten parts of your home: your AC unit’s filter.

A clean filter is essential for maintaining good indoor air quality, especially during spring when allergens like pollen are at their peak. Depending on the type of filter your system uses, upkeep can be simple but impactful.

Know Your Filter Type

Throw-away filters should be replaced every month if you have pets or allergy concerns. Otherwise, swapping them out every three months will do the trick. Before installing a new filter, take a moment to clean the filter rack using a dust rag or vacuum.

Washable filters should be removed and cleaned every three months. After vacuuming the filter rack, rinse the filter thoroughly and let it dry completely before putting it back in place.

We know HVAC maintenance can feel like just another task on a long to-do list. That’s why Kenderdine’s Heating Oil & HVAC offers annual AC and heat pump cleanings and tune-ups so you can enjoy comfort and peace of mind all season long.
