Clean air conditioner filters to improve energy efficiency

Maintaining your air conditioner filter can significantly improve your home’s air quality and energy efficiency.

Air conditioner filters are designed to reduce the dust and debris entering your home. When the filter is not regularly maintained the air quality can be impacted, and airflow potentially reduced as your unit must work harder to cool or heat a room.

To keep your air conditioner functioning at its best, routinely check and clean the filter every six months. Refer to the instruction manual provided with your air conditioner for guidance on how to safely clean the filter or engage the assistance of a professional. If you no longer have the manual, you can usually download a copy from the manufacturer's website.
