Air filters are some of the most boring things ever; I dislike air filter shopping.
I have realized that there are all peculiar types of filters! The sizes of each are vastly different.
The material of each air filter is quite particular too, even the hole size is pressing too; HEPA filters are better for air quality but need to be changed almost every two weeks, and washable filters can last a few weeks and save you money. They aren’t really good at keeping the Heating and A/C clean but. I have an air filter that works for our system. The size is right, the material is cheap and our hair seems clean. The issue I have is remembering what it is. I never want to save an empty air filter box. I also never seem to have filters on hand… Like twice a year I go to the hardware store and stock up. I then store a whole bunch of air filters. I use them until they run out. I disfasten the dirty filter and then go to the store. I never take the old one with me, however so I don’t remember sizing, brand or style. I always assume and end up wrong. I spend afternoons going back to the hardware store returning filters and trying again. I recently found out that our Heating and A/C supplier does sell air filters online. I am trying to get on a program where they send myself and others several air filters a quarter. I want it done automatically and the money taken from our account. I don’t want to be responsible for air filter shopping anymore.
