In addition to the devastating loss of homes and businesses, wildfire season can bring unhealthy air conditions.
With such dirty air outside, it can be difficult to keep the air inside your home clean. Even if you keep your doors and windows closed, which is recommended, air can seep in through cracks and leaks. One way to clear the air is by running the fan on your central heating or cooling system, to cycle air through the filter.
Check your air filter to see whether it looks dirty. You may also notice a degradation in airflow. Both are indications that the filter is not cleaning the air properly, and you'll need to replace it. You can buy air filters in packs online and at home improvement stores. Some online retailers also offer subscriptions so that your supply is automatically replenished every month or in the time frame you choose.
