What Happens to the Furnace After Two Weeks of Smoke
It’s recommended to change your furnace filter at least once every three months, although most of us don’t bother so often. This is important so that your furnace works properly and doesn’t overheat! But this filter, subject to smoke from a nearby wildfire, got insanely dirty in the span of just two weeks!
For comparison purposes, this person held up a brand-new filter new to their two-week-old filter. While it’s terrible that there’s so much smoke in the air due to wildfires, it is a relief that they had the filter so that they weren’t constantly breathing in dangerous contaminants. We’re concerned about the trees, though, that don’t have the same protection.
