A/C Not Working? Essential Checks to Get Your Cooling Back on Track

When it comes to keeping your home comfortable and your HVAC system running efficiently, one of the simplest and most overlooked tasks is changing your air filter. It’s a small component with a big impact on indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and even your health. That’s why Custom Cooling & Heating is excited to announce a new way to make this essential maintenance step easier: you can now purchase air filters directly from our website. Whether you need a standard replacement or a high-efficiency option, we’ve got the right filter for your system and your lifestyle. Why Air Filters Matter Your HVAC system’s air filter is responsible for trapping dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and other airborne particles before they circulate through your home. Over time, these filters become clogged, reducing airflow and forcing your system to work harder. Here’s what a clean air filter helps you achieve: Improved indoor air quality Lower energy bills Extended HVAC system lifespan Reduced allergens and respiratory irritants Neglecting to change your filter regularly can lead to poor performance, higher utility costs, and even costly repairs. How Often Should You Change Your Air Filter? The answer depends on several factors: Standard filters : Every 30–60 days High-efficiency filters : Every 90 days Homes with pets or allergies : Every 30 days Vacation homes or low-occupancy spaces : Every 90+ days If you’re unsure which filter is right for your system or how often to change it, Custom Cooling & Heating is here to help. Our team can recommend the best option based on your home’s needs and your HVAC setup. Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Air Filter Even if you’re not tracking the calendar, your home may be telling you it’s time for a new filter. Watch for these signs: Dust buildup around vents and on surfaces Reduced airflow from registers Unusual odors when the system runs Increased allergy symptoms or respiratory irritation Higher energy bills without a change in usage Replacing your filter is a quick fix that can make a noticeable difference in comfort and air quality.
