6. Вирішення проблем
While Filtrete filters are designed for reliable performance, certain issues can arise if maintenance is neglected:
- Зменшений потік повітря: A heavily clogged filter can restrict airflow, causing your HVAC system to work harder and potentially leading to reduced heating or cooling efficiency. This can also cause coils to freeze in AC units.
- Increased Energy Bills: When your system struggles due to a dirty filter, it consumes more energy, resulting in higher utility costs.
- Poor Air Quality: An old or dirty filter loses its ability to capture particles effectively, leading to a decline in indoor air quality and potentially exacerbating allergy or asthma symptoms.
If you experience any of these issues, inspect your filter and replace it if it appears dirty. Regular replacement as per the maintenance schedule is the best preventative measure.
