Before You Call

Before calling a heating and air conditioning company, check the following:
  • Check selections on thermostat. Ensure that it is set to the desired settings.
  • Check power supply. This can include a circuit breaker and or/a regular looking wall switch close to the indoor unit
  • Check for freezing up of units. If the unit is frozen turn it off. Check the filter(s) and supply vents to make sure they are not obstructed in any way. If you find no problems leave the unit turned off and call a service company.

Proper Humidity Levels

Having proper humidity levels in your home or business is important not only for your health but also in the amount of energy your HVAC systems use to keep you comfortable. If the humidity level in your home is high in the summer you will not feel cool. If the humidity level is low in the winter you will not feel warm when the thermostat is set at an average temperature. This will result in turning the HVAC thermostat up to compensate and you will use more energy to stay warm. A properly designed and installed system will keep the proper levels of humidity in your home or business and save you money on energy used by the HVAC System. For more information on humidity and the benefits of maintaining proper levels visit High Performance HVAC's Humidifier Page.

High Performance HVAC Air Conditioning & Heating Air Handler Filter Question

Looking for an HVAC filter to fit a Goodman Air Handler Air Conditioner

Goodman Filters - Goodman Air Handler Filter - Air Conditioner Filter

11) Looking for a filter to fit a Goodman Air Handler Air Conditioner Model # WMC18-1A. Can you help or give me a name of somebody who can provide me with this HVAC filter? What do you use in your home? Thanks. Answer......

There are many different types of HVAC filters one can buy for their air conditioner and air handler to filter the air. Some of these HVAC filters only offer basic filtering for protection of the equipment only and not for clean air in the home or business. If you want just the normal air conditioner filter to filter the air for protection of the HVAC equipment. See the High Performance HVAC Filter Pages for more information on this and other types of air conditioning filter for your Goodman air handler.

You look up a Goodman dealer on the internet to get an air conditioner filter for your Goodman air handler or you can take the existing HVAC filter and measure it for size. Then go to your local hardware store and look for the appropriate filter for your Goodman air handler. This is probably the most cost efficient way to do this as a trip to your local hardware store is cheaper than calling your local Goodman dealer and having them send a service technician to your home just to change the air conditioner filter. Again, see the High Performance HVAC for more information on air conditioner filter types to help you make an informed decision about the type of HVAC filter you want for your air conditioner.

There are commercial air conditioning filter companies which specialize in making filters specifically for your air handler. You simply look them up in the phone book under filters, air conditioner filters, furnace filters, or HVAC filters and give them a call with the size of filter you want. They will give you some options for filter types or you can drive to the HVAC filter company and see a display of the types available. These companies also will custom make a washable HVAC filter that you can wash with the water hose. Your local HVAC contractor can also get these types of air conditioner filters custom made for you if you give them a call.

Whatever you decide to do or whatever air conditioner filter you buy always remember it is a good idea to check and change the HVAC filter at least every thirty days despite the claims of the HVAC filter manufacturer. Some HVAC filter manufacturers claim their filters are good for ninety days but this is not true if the filter loads up and restricts the air flow of the air conditioner. If you have a custom made air conditioner filter made for you HVAC system then the same applies; Check the HVAC filter and wash the HVAC filter at least every thirty days. This will save you a lot of problems with your Goodman air conditioning system.

What do I use in my home for an air conditioner filter? I have triple protection for my air conditioner filter. I have an electronic air cleaner, an ultra violet air cleaner, and the standard HVAC filtering media which protects the equipment. I rarely have to change the regular HVAC filter as the other two, the electronic air cleaner and the ultra violet air cleaner clean the air so good the regular HVAC filter rarely needs changing. I have less dust in my home and the air always smells fresh and clean. I advise everyone to have this type of system installed even though the cost is high your health is worth it. The filter maintenance on this type of HVAC filter system is minimal as you can see I rarely have to change my regular air conditioner filter because the air is clean. There is maintenance with the electronic air cleaner every six months. I remove the cells and place them in the dishwasher. When the dishwasher is finish and the cells are dry I reinstall the filtering cells into the elctronic air cleaner and turn it on for another six months. Its that easy and filter maintenance is a breeze.
