Dust in the filters blocks normal air flow, which reduces the efficiency of the
particular system. When filters are blocked with dust, the air that flows
through filters carries the dirt into the evaporator coil. This dirt impairs
the heat absorbing capacity of the coil. It has been estimated cleaning or
replacing the dirt or dust clogged filters, can lower the energy consumption from
5 to 15 percent. Common filter locations
are in ceiling, walls, furnaces and in the air conditioner itself. The room air
conditioners have filter in the grill that faces the room.

other part of the air conditioning system, that require maintenance. A clean
filter keeps evaporator coil from coiling quickly. But the coil collects dirt
with the time and this insulates the coil and reduces its ability to absorb
