Highland Village FAQ

Can I just wait until my filter looks dirty to change it?+

That's a reasonable practical approach, checking monthly and changing when it looks visibly clogged, rather than memorizing a fixed schedule that may not match your specific home and filter type.

Does changing my filter regularly replace the need for maintenance?+

No. A clean filter doesn't tell you anything about refrigerant levels, electrical connections, or coil condition, it's the baseline, not a substitute for a professional seasonal inspection.
