When your Landlord wants a reason for a surprise inspection.....
When your Landlord wants a reason for a surprise inspection..... I got a phone from my landlord yesterday, he wanted schedule a time come switch out my furnace filters. I immediately assumed he was looking for a reason come on in and take a peek at the place without making it SUPER obvious. New renter.... Recent canine addition.... Cat.... Yah.... They don't know me at all. They no idea I'm a clean freak, even with the animals. "I changed my filter out earlier this week and it was just horrible. I couldn't believe my eyes." He was slowly removing my furnace filter and asking me how I was liking the house. "I love the house. After living in town for so long, it's been really nice to be out here... Experiencing the wildlife. Um..... Are you sure the filter needs to be changed?" He just stood for a moment, scrutinizing the filter, then set on the floor. "Are you using the furnace?" At that precise moment, the furnace kicked on. "Yep." He slid the new filter in and turned at me. I could see him glancing around the place, smiling a . Whatever concerns he'd had that brought him over were put rest. I live another day. Happy Sunday! |

I agree with lonly use the pleated ones much quality than those crappy blue ones. Take it from someone in the hvac biz.

Along with Location, Location, Location. it's really about Filtration, Filtration, Filtration! lol...Great job...

I change mine about once a month this time of year. However, I use a much better filter than those blue ones. I buy an allergen one as the main filter & then I put the cheap blue one over the top of that. Of course you can't do that with all furnaces.

Wait...I thought your landlord was the crabby old woman that wanted to know if you could mow? Yeah, sounds like he was checking up on you. Sounds like you passed with flying colors! As lonly pointed out, one of the pleated filters will do better at cleaning the air.

Well, at least he knows he's got nothing to worry about, but I'll admit that I used to hate it when landlords did that.

I agree with lonly on the type of filter to use, but if the landlord is supplying them and you do not experience air quality issues, let him keep buying. I lived in a city/town for 8 years during and immediately after (and 4 years in college) and much prefer living in the country. I survived the towns, but growing up on a farm let me know what I was missing. I plan to stay where I am for as long as I can.

Good for you, I would use a next grade up on the filter one that is fanfolded, pleated like, better filtration and more surface area so less restriction... Good to see you out on the other side. I dont have any animals, OH, yes, i do I have a heard of kids two legged ones, i change out mine each month...

As others have agreed that a better is need I would suggest Merv 8 specified grade , not as pricy as the top of HEPA , but good to several Microns, gets pollen, smoke, and any dust.. Stop by at lonlyforlove2 also see Lunch with Lonly , we get snow tomorrow Check my blog on New Community, "A photo of my big Pecker" also, " My Sunday afternoon with the kids'
