Did you know that by not replacing your filter, you cause more wear and tear to your air condition unit?

Think of it this way. You use your air conditioning unit more than you use your car. Your air condition runs all day, all night, every day, every hour, if you don’t think you need to do maintenance on your unit and you do not pay attention to it, then you will end up suffering financial consequences.

Air filters are as low as $2.50, and have different MERV ratings.

What is a MERV rating?

MERV stand for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) and the values vary from 1 to 16.
