Simple Guide on Installing Filterbuy 17.25x26x2 Allergen Air Filter
Installing the right air filter is one of the simplest ways to boost your home’s air quality. Filterbuy filters are designed to fit custom or less common HVAC setups. Thus, accurate installation guarantees the maximum airflow and filtration efficiency.
Here’s the process:
Switch off your HVAC system before taking out the old filter.
Find the filter slot. It is usually located near the return air duct or blower compartment.
Look at the airflow direction arrow on the filter frame.
Place the new filter with the arrow directed to the HVAC, not the opposite way.
It should fit tightly. Prevention of air escaping in a circular path is a result of having tight seals and can therefore prevent dust formation and acquired allergens from the appliance.
Every two or three months, it is recommended to replace filter depending on how often the HVAC is used, presence of pets and allergy situation.
