September is a transitional month when sharp temperature and humidity fluctuations create additional challenges for your ventilation system. During the day the air is still warm, while at night it becomes much cooler. Improperly adjusted ventilation can lead to discomfort, condensation, or even mold risk.
Most people replace filters only when they become visibly dirty. However, even a filter that looks “still usable” may already fail to clean the air properly. Sometimes people try shaking, vacuuming, or blowing through the filter – but that only helps for a short while. Why is that, and what is the real difference between old and new filters?

This guide walks you through the correct steps, from selecting the right filter class to ensuring proper airflow direction and resetting the filter timer. Follow these easy steps to keep your ventilation system running smoothly and avoid unnecessary issues.
