Signs to change your air filter? During the summer, air filters can clog more quickly than usual, causing problems with your air conditioning system. If you observe any of the following signs that your air conditioner isn't working correctly, it's probably time to replace your air filter:
Here are some signs that it's time to call Chandler AC Maintenance and get your air conditioning system inspected.
AC Systems Run Longer than Normal
If your air conditioner seems to run longer than usual, it could be because of a dirty air filter.
Your air conditioner cools your home by pulling warm air in via the air filter and removing the heat. However, if your air filter is blocked, your air conditioner cannot absorb as much air as it requires per cooling cycle.
In the end, this means your air conditioner will deliver less cooled air into your home per cycle, requiring it to operate longer to reach the temperature you set on your thermostat.
Check your air filter and change it if it's dirty if you think this is the problem. If the filter isn't dirty, you may have a more severe problem requiring a Chandler Air Conditioning maintenance expert.
Utility Bills Continually Increase
If your electricity bill has skyrocketed though the weather in your area has changed little, a dirty air filter could be the cause.
When your air filter is dirty, your air conditioner can't work efficiently, which means it will have to work longer and harder to chill your home. Your energy bills will ultimately increase because of this.
However, if you inspect your air filter and find it dirty, contact a technician.
It's possible a component of your air conditioning system is malfunctioning, which will not only raise your bills but also risk causing long-term harm to your system. It could be time to call your Chandler Air Conditioning maintenance expert.
You Notice Lots More Dust Around Your Home
It could be a sign of a dirty air filter if you notice a build-up of dust throughout your home. Your air filter captures dust and debris before they enter your air conditioner. This helps keep the air traveling through your home clean and keeps the interior elements of your AC system from becoming covered in dust. However, as your air filter becomes clogged, it loses its effectiveness, which could explain why you see more dust gathering on your home's surfaces.
