Replacing Your Air Conditioning Filter

Wednesday, July 31st, 2013 at 12:21 pm

You’re likely running your air conditioning system a lot right now in order to stay comfortable in the summer heat. There are a number of different components of your AC that need to be regularly maintained in order for you to get efficient and consistent cooling. One of the most important is the air filter. Here at Climate Masters, we are dedicated to the comfort of our customers and we wanted to put together a quick description of why you should change your air filter on a regular basis. Give us a call if you need any kind of St Augustine air conditioning services like repair, maintenance or installation.

Why Change the Air Filter Regularly

The air that your air conditioner pulls in from the outside can have a number of different contaminants in it like dust, pollen, insect parts and many others. Without a filter, those pollutants could get caught in the fan motor, the fan blade or the evaporator coils and cause big problems for the AC. That’s why your air conditioner has an air filter in it that protects the moving parts from large particulate matter.

If this air filter doesn’t get changed on a regular basis it can cause huge problems for your air conditioning system.

  • Reduced comfort – When you have a clogged air filter it will reduce the amount of air that your AC can pull in, cool and then push into your home. This will reduce the amount of cooling that you get and, thus, the comfort of your home.
  • Reduced efficiency – Another issue that will likely arise from a clogged air filter is reduced efficiency. Your air conditioner will have to work much harder in order to pull in the air which will put more strain on the motor and reduce its efficiency.
  • Increased repair – When your air conditioning system has to work harder to pull in in outside air it will experience more wear and tear. This can cause the system to break down faster and require more repair.

If you need any kind of St Augustine air conditioning repair, installation or maintenance just call the specialists at Climate Masters. We can help you with any type of services that you might need.
