5. You Should Change Your Furnace Filter Once A Season, Or More Frequently, Especially If You Have Pets.
True
Without a doubt!
A dirty filter lowers indoor air quality and can restrict airflow. Restricted airflow results in decreased home comfort, potential system damage, and higher utility bills. To ensure optimum air flow, we recommend more frequent filter changes.
Remember: New Month = New Filter!
