Upgrade Your Air Filter
Upgrading a home’s furnace filter offers a multitude of benefits that contribute to improved indoor air quality and overall comfort. Firstly, a higher-quality filter can effectively capture a wider range of airborne particles, including dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores, thereby reducing allergens and respiratory irritants circulating throughout the home. This is particularly advantageous for individuals with allergies or asthma, as it can alleviate symptoms and promote better breathing. Additionally, a superior furnace filter helps maintain cleaner air ducts and HVAC systems by preventing the accumulation of debris, which can prolong the lifespan of the equipment and reduce the need for costly repairs. Moreover, enhanced filtration can lead to a decrease in household dust, resulting in cleaner surfaces and a fresher environment. By trapping more pollutants, a premium filter also aids in preserving indoor furnishings and preventing potential damage caused by dust buildup. Furthermore, improved air quality fosters a healthier living environment for occupants, promoting overall well-being and comfort. Investing in a high-performance furnace filter is a simple yet effective way to enhance indoor air quality, protect HVAC systems, and create a more pleasant home environment for everyone.

Benefits Of An Upgraded Home Air Filter
Most heating and cooling systems still use a basic air filter. These filters were originally designed to protect the equipment and not the people served by the equipment. The average air filter is only capable of removing 3–5% of the particles that pass through it. Today, however, there are several types of permanent air filters available in various efficiencies that can help you filter the air in your home. If you suffer from allergies, asthma, hay fever or other breathing difficulties, there is an air filter that can help you. We can even provide you with the same type of air filter used in hospital operating rooms.
Health
For Your Famlies Health
A new furnace filter brings significant health benefits by effectively trapping airborne particles like dust, pollen, and mold spores, thus improving indoor air quality. This reduction in pollutants can alleviate allergy and asthma symptoms, promoting easier breathing and better respiratory health for occupants. Additionally, cleaner air ducts and HVAC systems minimize the circulation of contaminants, reducing the risk of respiratory illnesses and enhancing overall well-being. Investing in a new furnace filter is a proactive step toward creating a healthier indoor environment, supporting respiratory health, and ensuring a more comfortable living space for everyone in the home.
Efficiency
Reduce Your Heating Bill
A new furnace filter can significantly reduce energy bills by improving the efficiency of the HVAC system. A clean filter allows for better airflow, enabling the system to operate more efficiently and requiring less energy to heat or cool the home. When the filter is clogged or dirty, the system has to work harder to push air through, leading to increased energy consumption and higher bills. By regularly replacing the filter with a new, high-quality one, homeowners can ensure optimal performance of their HVAC system, lower energy costs, and ultimately save money over time.
Longevity
Reduce Your Heating Bill
A new furnace filter plays a crucial role in extending the lifespan of a furnace by keeping it clean and functioning efficiently. By capturing dust, dirt, and other airborne particles, the filter prevents these contaminants from entering the furnace and accumulating on critical components like the blower motor, heat exchanger, and other internal parts. Reduced buildup of debris helps maintain optimal airflow, preventing strain on the furnace and reducing the likelihood of overheating or mechanical failures. With improved airflow and less stress on its components, the furnace operates more smoothly, experiences less wear and tear, and is better positioned to last longer, ultimately saving homeowners from costly repairs or premature replacements.

Tips From The HVAC Professionals
Frequently Asked Questions
What Size Of HVAC System Should I have?
Contrary to what you may believe, there is no set parameter for sizing a system to the precise square footage of your home. Because homes are all built so differently, your home’s HVAC system will depend on its specific construction.
To determine the size HVAC system you need, you need to have a licensed HVAC professional from Aspen One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning evaluate your home. Our expert technicians will examine your home’s layout and make recommendations depending on your home’s individual needs. Many factors go into calculating the size of a furnace or air conditioning system your home needs. Factors include the size of your home, the number of windows in your home and which direction they face, elements surrounding your home, and expectations your family has for the comfort of your home.
With all of this information, Aspen One Hour can propose a range of energy-efficient options for perfectly heating and cooling your space all year long. Call us today for your appointment!
Can I Increase The Efficiency Of My HVAC System?
Increasing the efficiency of your home’s HVAC system can be relatively easy. Most importantly, be sure to change your filters regularly and with the Aspen Comfort Club membership, you have peace of mind knowing that your filters are replaced at your annual tune-ups! Also, make sure your thermostat is set at higher temperatures in the summer and lower temperatures in the winter. It doesn’t take the body long to adjust to incremental changes of 2-5 degrees, and these changes can save you a lot of money on your energy bills.
Lastly, you’ll want to make sure you keep blinds closed on windows that let in direct sunlight, or use curtains to shade your home while still letting in some light. Though natural light is something we all crave, keeping your blinds and curtains closed during the hottest days of the year, especially if you are not home, can drastically decrease the effort your AC system is required to make.
How Often Do I Need Maintenance On My System?
Regular maintenance on your HVAC system should be performed twice a year. The licensed professionals at Aspen One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning recommend having your system serviced in the spring before the weather heats up again, and in the fall before the weather cools down. If you’re a member of our Comfort Club, this is included in your pre-paid services along with many other services we offer.
Having regular maintenance performed on your system allows for a longer system life, higher efficiency, and proactive service to stop issues before they happen. Call us today at (517) 879-2049 to schedule your maintenance or to join our Comfort Club!
How Does A Ductless Heat Pump Work?
In older homes that either have boiler or baseboard heating, there may not have ductwork run throughout the home, making it difficult and costly to add a traditional central air conditioning system. Therefore, a ductless heat pump, sometimes called a mini-split air conditioner or a ductless air conditioner, is a cooling system that does not utilize ducts for moving treated air throughout the space. It takes warm air from one area and moving it to another. There is an outdoor compressor unit as well as air handling units indoors to allow the system to function.
The heat is transferred through the system. It goes through the cycle of evaporation and condensation. A refrigerant substance is used through a compressor pump to help achieve this cooled air. The system contains two heat exchange coils. One of those contains the necessary refrigerant material. The other works to evaporate it. This allows the refrigerant to absorb the heat from the area. This happens during the evaporation process. They work to maintain the specific temperature a person desires by using a thermostat to control the movement of the air between the coil systems. If you’re looking to upgrade your home’s comfort but don’t have ductwork, a heat pump can be an excellent option.

Why Is Indoor Air Quality Important And What Can I Do To Improve It?
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) refers to the condition of the air within and around homes/buildings, especially as it relates to the health and comfort of the occupants. Good IAQ implies that the air is free from pollutants and contributes to a comfortable and safe living or working environment.
How Can I Improve My IAQ?
- Change air filters regularly
- Use air purifiers
- Ensure proper ventilation
- Control humidity levels
- Keep the living space clean and dust-free
How Often Should I Change My Filters?
Regular filter changes are vital for maintaining optimal performance. It is generally recommended to replace filters or clean reusable filters every one to three months. However, the frequency may vary based on factors like the type of filter, the level of usage, and the indoor air quality of your home.
