Filthy A/C Filters A BIG No No

The image above is what you don’t want to see—air conditioning filters so filthy they pose a serious fire and health risk.

Can you be sure your family is not at risk of respiratory problems? Clogged filters circulate dust, allergens, and mould spores, leading to poor indoor air quality that can trigger asthma, allergies, and respiratory issues.

Filters should be cleaned every 3 to 6 months, depending on usage. It’s one of the few maintenance tasks a homeowner can do, but annual servicing by our technician ensures filters are suitable and your system runs efficiently and safely.

Why Dirty Filters Are a Big Problem

• Overheating Risk – Clogged filters restrict airflow, causing the system to work harder, overheat, and risk electrical overload.
• Higher Energy Bills – A struggling A/C uses more power, sending your electricity bills through the roof.
• Health Concerns – Dirt trapped in filters can turn into mould, releasing harmful spores into the air.
• Reduced cooling efficiency – system to run longer than necessary to achieve the desired coolness

Our technicians do more than just clean and check air filters. They perform a full system check, including:

• Refrigerant pressure testing for efficiency
• Electrical current draw testing to prevent overloads
• Overall performance diagnostics to detect potential failures
• Check Airflow and Temperature Differential Across Coil

How Long Since… your air conditioner was serviced?

Fire and health authorities stress the importance of regular servicing to keep your system safe and running efficiently.
