With vibrant signs of spring emerging – birdsong in the air, a gentle warm breeze, and the sweet scent of blossoming flowers – it’s the perfect time to embrace renewal and tackle some essential spring cleaning.
Among your checklists, don’t forget about your AC unit, particularly its filter. Ensuring your filter is clean is crucial for safeguarding your home against the increased allergens that accompany the season.
Understanding the type of filter your AC unit requires is key. There are two primary types: throw-away filters and washable filters. For throw-away filters, especially if you have pets or medical conditions, it’s advisable to replace them monthly.
Otherwise, a replacement every three months is recommended. Before inserting a new filter, remember to clean the filter rack by wiping it down with a dust rag or vacuuming it.
AC units equipped with washable filters should be removed and washed every three months. After removing the filter, vacuum the filter rack and ensure the filter is completely dry before reinstalling it.
We understand that maintaining and cleaning your AC unit can be challenging, which is why at Kenderdine’s Heating Oil & HVAC, we offer our customers an annual scheduled AC/HP cleaning and tune-up service.
