Want to know how to change your heating filter? Here you go.

What You’ll Need:

• Replacement air filter (check size printed on the old one or in your manual)

• Screwdriver (if applicable)

• Flashlight (optional)

🧰 Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Turn Off the Heating System

• Why: For safety and to avoid sucking in debris during the change.

• How: Switch the thermostat to “Off”, and/or turn off power at the circuit breaker if needed.

2. Locate the Air Filter Compartment

• Common places:

  • Inside or near the furnace blower compartment

  • In the return air duct or grille

• It may be behind a panel or door that you might need to unscrew.

3. Remove the Old Filter

• Slide out the old filter.

• Take note of:

  • Filter size (e.g., 16x25x1)

  • Airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame

4. Check Filter Type

• Most homes use disposable pleated filters.

• If it's reusable, you’ll need to clean it instead of replacing it.

5. Insert the New Filter

• Match the airflow arrow with the direction of airflow (usually toward the furnace or blower).

• Slide the new filter into place.

6. Secure the Compartment

• If there’s a cover or panel, reattach it securely.

7. Turn the System Back On

• Flip the thermostat or power switch back to “Heat” or your preferred setting.

✅ Tips:

• Change the filter every 1–3 months, or more often if:

  • You have pets

  • You live in a dusty area

  • Someone in the home has allergies

• Set reminders so you don’t forget.
