new in package furnace filterIt is amazing the amount of dust I find from one week to the next. Here I am typing away, looking at the dust on the desk I could swear I just cleaned away a couple days ago. I guess it is time to change the furnace filter again. All that dust can't be good for little lungs, or any lungs for that matter.

When I went to the hardware store, I was amazed at the variety of furnace filters I found. The prices ranged from $1 to $15. I didn't realize there were so many different ones. Since I knew nothing about filters, wouldn't ya know, I chose the wrong ones! You don't have to choose the wrong ones, because Murray talks about the different furnace filters out there and the benefits of remembering to change our furnace filter more than once a season.

You'll be breathing much easier when you remember to change your filter. Check the filter at least once a month, and maybe more often if you have indoor pets and house plants, and change it if you happen to have a new layer of dust on your TV or computer screen every week. If you are kinda unsure of how to change, clean or replace your furnace filter, eHow has great tips and advise. You'll be a furnace filter changing pro in no time!

    it is awesome on changing the dirty filter it is essential that we should change the dirty filter and cleaning the furnace filter is as necessary .
    Wao great information We change our filter every 4-6 months but try to clean in between. I think it does make a difference though. I think it’s more important in the summer time. If you have central heat and air, it’s also important to keep the grass cut away from your outside unit. They typically pull air in at the bottom, so they will use more energy if there is debris in the way. http://www.airsponge.com
