The community of Northridge is situated in the region of the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, California. The almost 85,000 people that call Northridge home realize the importance of proper maintenance and furnace repair.
One of the main functions of a furnace filter is to remove dust and other harmful particles from the air that flows throughout your home. Over time, tie filter becomes covered in dust and the air flow through the filter is significantly reduced.
Gas and oil furnaces, as well as all other air conditioning and heating equipment, are built to have a particular amount of air flowing through them at all times. This is important for proper operation and the most efficiency possible.
If the filter is left in your furnace until it begins to have a negative impact on the air flowing through your heating system, you could be at risk of serious dangers. As the air flowing over the heat exchanger decreases, the temperature increases. Then, the heat exchanger will begin to crack. The hotter the exchange gets the more it continues to expand. When the system is off and allowed to cool it will contract. The constant contracting and expanding will cause the exchanger to warp. This will allow combustion gases to combine with the air that is distributed throughout your home and inhaled by you and your family.
Northridge is a beautiful place to be in the wintertime, but neglecting to properly maintain your furnace and heating system could lead to potential danger such as a house fire or carbon monoxide exposure.
Most people realize that a clogged filter requires more “work” to get the job done (increased short-term costs), but many overlook the impacts, as state above, that it can have on the system as a whole (GREATLY increased long-term costs). An ounce of prevention…
