The SoCo Air Filter FAQ

Monday, December 19th, 2022

We’ve mentioned air filters multiple times on our blogs, but we haven’t really dedicated a blog specifically to them yet. These components are special when compared to other heating system components, because they’re specifically designed to be addressed by a homeowner.

We think it’s a bad idea to just open your furnace up and start fiddling with the components. You can void your warranty and run into some serious problems, even safety concerns. But your air filter is located in a safe place that’s outside of your furnace box where it can be easily lifted out and a replacement can be placed back in. This is what makes this component unique.

So, let’s discuss any questions you might have about your air filter and make sure that all of our customers are on the right page with how to treat this powerful yet sensitive component of your heating in Colorado Springs, CO!
