How Often You Should Change Your Air Conditioner Filter

How Often Should I Change the Air Filter in My Air Conditioner? 

If you’re like most Colorado residents, then you’ve probably already turned on your air conditioner and will have it running through September, and maybe even October if this year’s weather is anything like last year’s.

This means that your air conditioner will be pushing a large quantity of air through it, and you should expect to change your filter to prevent a buildup of dust, pollen, and other environmental contaminants.

While everyone’s needs will vary slightly, we recommend checking your AC filter at least once each month to see if it needs to be changed.

How Can You Tell When Your Air Conditioner Filter Needs To Be Replaced?

You’ll have replacement filters on-hand, so compare your current filter to a clean one.

If your current filter has become gray and discolored by dirt and dust, then it’s probably time to change it.

Changing your air conditioner filter early is never a bad thing, as it makes it even less likely that you will have to purchase AC repairs due to a malfunction down the road.

At Guardian Heating & Air Conditioning, we understand that it can be expensive to replace an air conditioning unit, so we offer several financing options that can make your next HVAC repair or installation even more affordable. Give us a call at (303) 952-9047 to get your issues solved today.

 

“This past year we had Kurt, with Guardian Heating and Air, out to our house to install a mini-split system. We took Kurt‘s recommendation on the sizing of what we needed for our home. WE  COULDN’T BE HAPPIER!!!!! Kurt’s attention to detail and level of professionalism made for a quick and clean installation.  I work as a heavy civil construction superintendent, and having good contractors with a high level of integrity is key to a successful project. I may be in a different trade, but Guardian Heating and Air is somebody I would like to have on my team.”
