Essentially your air conditioner filter is a collector of dust, dirt, grime and other nasty microscopic things that float around your home. When your comfort system is turned on, it collects these particles to protect your system and clean your home’s air. Like the lint trap in your dryer, it accumulates a thick layer of these air borne particles.
Once it has trapped a certain amount, it becomes full and ineffective and gradually restricts the air flow moving through your system. This requires your system to work harder to keep you cool — wasting precious energy and increasing your bills.
Dirty, clogged home air filters also become less effective at capturing the air borne germs and pollutants that can irritate your family’s breathing. Irritated sinuses, sneezing, allergies and even asthma are triggered. Your family inhales what your filter can’t handle any longer.
An old and forgotten filter can eventually accumulate so much dirt and grime that it can totally choke off the air flow to the system. In the worst case, the filter will be sucked into the blower motor and cause thousands of dollars in damage to your system.
