How to Replace an Air Filter

Replacing a furnace filter is perhaps the easiest and quickest way to maximize the efficiency of your home heating system. In fact, doing this is a lot easier than most people think. All in all, doing this should take a maximum of five to ten minutes.

The most time consuming part of this project, in all probability, is finding exactly what size air filter you need, and going to the store to locate and buy the replacement filter. Essentially, you are merely substituting the old air filter with a new replacement filter. After you have the replacement filter, all you need to do is go through these straightforward steps:

Turn off your furnace

Locate furnace Filter

Determine size of air filter

Remove old filter and Insert new filter

Turn on Your Furnace

4 Benefits of Furnace Maintenance

If you have an older furnace or your home heating equipment has been in use for more than a few years, there are certain types of furnace problems homeowners commonly encounter. Below are some of the more common types of problems related to a home heating unit:

Prolongs lifespan

The best way to guarantee a furnace stays useful for as long as possible is via standard seasonal maintenance. Without proper maintenance, furnaces last half as long as they should according to furnace manufacturers. So that’s another thing to keep in mind: Install a whole new system sooner than is necessary costs far more than any maintenance visit you will ever have to make.

Safety issues

Most of the heating systems we work on are fueled by natural gas. Furnaces or heat systems that utilize natural gas are far more unpredictable and dangerous when they aren’t being inspected and serviced on a regular basis. If you have an electric furnace, be mindful, the wiring can often be a safety issue. Old or faulty wiring can cause electrical fires and other problems.

Prevent breakdowns

An estimated 85 percent of the repairs done on furnace breakdowns can be linked to inadequate maintenance. This is why having maintenance done on schedule prevents the vast majority of the repairs a homeowner will otherwise have to deal with.

Keeping the warranty active:

Anytime a customer has a new unit installed, the furnace’s manufacturers will require them to have maintenance performed each year by a NATE-certified heating technician to keep their warranty valid. If the homeowner fails to have this done (even if they merely forget one time), the warranty becomes worthless. If the warranty is worthless and something was to go wrong, the customer is stuck paying for the repairs or replacements with their own money.
