Frequently asked questions about furnace filter replacement

You should generally replace your furnace filter every 1 to 3 months. The right interval depends on the type of filter you use, whether you have pets and how much your system runs. Checking the filter regularly helps you settle on the schedule that suits your home.

Replacing the furnace filter is important because it captures dust and particles before they circulate throughout your home. Health Canada notes that limiting indoor air contaminants benefits your health. Changing the filter on time therefore protects both your air and the smooth operation of your system.

 

The right furnace filter depends on your system, your filtration needs and your situation at home, such as whether anyone has allergies or you have pets. A filter that is too restrictive can limit airflow, while a very basic one lets more particles through. We are happy to recommend a model that suits your setup.
