Tips for a more efficient air conditioning system

Warm temperatures are rapidly approaching. Now is a good time to prepare. The first thing you should do is check your furnace filter. It is used in the heating and cooling cycle and can affect the efficiency of the system. Be careful when choosing an air filter. Stay away from the high merv rated 1" filters. The higher merv rating should only be used with a 3.5 to 5" thick filter due to restriction issues. The higher the merv rating the more dense the air filter is and the more restrictive it is. Slowing the air flow down can cause damage to the system and will cause increased operating costs.
