AIR FILTERS
If
you use a flat disposable filter, it is very important that
it be changed once every thirty days of operation.
If
you use a flat washable filter, it is very important that it
be washed once every thirty days of operation.
If
you use a pleated filter: Most are good for three months, which
is a great improvement. However, it's even more important that
these filters get changed after that amount of time.
If
you have a Space-Gard, change it at least once per year, more
often if you have pets or heavy smokers.
Filters
are the most important thing you can do for your system, as
dirt is the leading cause of equipment failure.
Home Test
98%
of all dust particles in your house are less than 1 micron in
size. A single grain of salt is 150-200 microns. Pour table
salt over your standard filter and see how well it stops it.
If you use a fiber-glass filter, the salt probably pours right
through. Time to think of a better way to filter the air you
breathe. If you want to know more, call or E-mail
