One of the simplest ways to improve the efficiency of your home air conditioner unit is to change the filter on a regular basis. The filter on your air conditioner unit plays a very important function in keeping your unit running efficiently and it also plays an important role in your personal health. Many homes today have a combination heater and air conditioning unit that depends on the same air filter for it's proper function. Unfiltered air traveling into the mechanical components of these systems can cause a variety of problems. Dust build up on the coils and blower fans of the air conditioner can cause a restriction reducing airflow through the unit. That adds up to possibly higher electric bills and eventual maintenance costs. Dirty filters reducing airflow to the unit can, in some cases, cause excessive condensation on the coils or dust and lent buildup on the heater elements that can be a dangerous fire hazard. It is important to change these filters on a fairly regular basis and in most cases this is a simple procedure that any homeowner can do.
