In most homes, HVAC filters should be replaced every 1–3 months, but the exact timing depends on factors like pets, allergies, and how often your system runs. Using the right filter is just as important—choosing a filter that’s too restrictive can reduce airflow and strain your AC system, while the right option helps maintain efficiency and indoor air quality.
