Help Your Furnace Breathe

1/12/2018

 
Dirty furnace filter
Dirty furnace filter - clogged filter media and accumulations of dust and debris. This filter needs to be changed.
It's the middle of the heating season - how well is your furnace "breathing" through the filter? Have you been changing the filter regularly? If not, January is a great month to start a regular maintenance cycle. Furnace filters should be changed every 3 months for optimal performance of the furnace. A clean filter allows better air flow and a furnace that doesn't have to work as hard to meet the heating demands of your house. 
Filter labeling
Helpful labeling the last time this filter was changed. It's been three months, time to change the filter.
Check out these other posts from Jovag Home Inspection for further information on furnace systems and maintenance.
