The dirt and debris build up on this coil and blower wheel are perfect examples of why it’s so important to change your filter every 30 days.

The dirt on the blower wheel acts like a weight on the motor, this causes higher amp draws and reduced air flow. In addition to the mechanical aspect, all of the air in the home passes over this dirt and debris. Air quality is an important factor that is overlooked most of the time.
