We all know how important an air filter is for your home. But what if it gets dirty and you do not replace it? Do you make do with the dirty one or throw it away and use the system without the filter for a while?
Well, the answer is not that simple. You should first know what a filter does. It performs two main functions:
It purifies the air and pulls out the contaminants from the air.
It protects the coil and prevents debris from coming in contact with it. Keeping the coil safe is essential for the efficient working of the system, thus increasing its longevity.
If you think that your filter is not that dirty, you may use it for a while longer. Of course, the air will not be as clean as with a clean air filter, but it is manageable.
A filter protects the coil from coming in contact with all the debris, but if the filter is full of pollutants and dust, it is better to remove it. It will, however, harm the system, so getting a new one as soon as possible is advisable.
