HVAC Filters: The Forgotten Maintenance Task

Out of sight, out of mind. That is the story of most HVAC filters in vacation homes. However, a clogged filter is one of the leading causes of HVAC system failure. When airflow is restricted, your system has to work twice as hard to cool or heat the house, leading to higher energy bills and potential compressor burnout. Furthermore, a dirty filter circulates dust, pollen, and mold spores throughout your home, degrading indoor air quality. We make filter checks a standard part of our inspection. We can replace them on a schedule that makes sense for your usage, ensuring your system breathes freely. This not only extends the life of your expensive HVAC unit but ensures that when you walk in the door, the air is fresh, clean, and comfortable.
