Air purifiers can remove pet dander and other contaminants from the indoor air in your home. An air purifier draws air into the unit and filters it to remove pollutants and allergens before releasing it into the room. These appliances are especially beneficial for anyone suffering from allergies and asthma.

You should plan to change your AC unit's filter every one to three months, depending on the manufacturer's recommendations. You should also clean the coils at least once per year, but if you have pets or someone in your household has allergies, you might need to clean them more often. Fortunately, many pros will clean the coils and change the filter for you during an inspection, which you should schedule once or twice per year.

NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification is not legally required for HVAC technicians in most areas, but hiring a professional with this certification is highly recommended. NATE-certified technicians demonstrated their expertise and proficiency in different types of HVAC systems, offering assurance of quality service. It's a voluntary certification, yet it indicates a commitment to professionalism and ongoing training. Choosing a NATE-certified technician often means you're working with someone who is up-to-date on industry standards and best practices, which can lead to better service, energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings.

Inexpensive filters do an effective job of keeping your HVAC system clean and running properly. However, they usually aren’t the best at filtering out allergens and other pollutants. So, if you have pets, several people in your household, or allergies and asthma, you’ll want to invest in a higher-quality filter.
