Dust and Savings
Have you noticed that lately your furnace has been switching on more often? This
is probably a sure sign that your furnace air filter needs replacing. Since most
furnaces take the required air from outside, they must draw that air through a
filter to ensure efficient operation of your furnace. Since
furnace filters are
very low cost, you can usually purchase these in large quantity packages and
save money. You should replace your furnace filter once a month thus ensuring
your furnace is efficient. This will also make for cleaner air in your home for
those allergy sufferers.
Dust and dirt particles usually lodge themselves in your filter and can plug up
your furnace air filter very quickly. When this happens, your furnace ends up
working harder and the filter loses its ability to remove those particles from
the air. With this reduction in efficiency, you will find that it is going to
cost you more money for the energy you use.
One excellent way to cut down on your maintenance is to purchase an
electrostatic furnace filter. As a rule this filter comes with a lifetime
warranty and all you need to do is to take it out once every month or two, give
it a good vacuum and washing and replace it. Before you make a trip to the
hardware store, pull out the old filter which is located for easy access on the
furnace. The size will be marked on it, including the thickness. Take these
dimensions with you when you go to the hardware store to ensure you purchase the
right one. The Internet can offer a huge selection of furnace filters to choose
from. Since many of these merchants are able to purchase their stock in large
quantities, these bulk purchase merchants can pass their savings on to you.

"Our furnace was not working and several other companies were unable to come
out for 2-4 weeks. Betts came out the next day, and had to get a part to fix
the furnace, but were back the very next day with everything working like a
charm." -- Penny N, Woodstock, GA
