When air conditioner filters are clogged and dirty, the compressor needs to work harder to move the air, and it will not cool efficiently. If your air conditioner comes with disposable filters, they should be replaced at recommended intervals. If your unit has a reusable filter, then it must be cleaned as necessary. Filters will become inefficient sooner if your unit runs a greater than average amount of time. Buy air conditioner filters in bulk rather than one at a time. You will not only save money, but you will have a filter handy when needed. |
