If you have a gas oil furnace like me, a cracked heat exchanger can result in carbon monoxide leaking into the house.
Some weeks it feels like everything in my life is falling apart. One thing after the next will break down plus need repairs. Or in the case of my DSLR camera, a total replacement. I was taking pictures off my home balcony the other evening plus was getting phenomenal shots of the sunset over the tops of buildings in the horizon. The shots were gorgeous, plus then before I knew what had happened, my hand slipped. Normally I have the wristband from the camera wrapped around my arm, however this time I did not. It fell from 5 stories up plus was utterly destroyed when I found it on the ground below. The only thing I could retrieve from the camera was the SD card at the undoubtedly least. After forking over $900 for a new phone, I was vigilant about not wasting anymore currency by needless accidents. I started to remember that I wasn’t replacing my oil furnace filter on time like I should. If you don’t respectfully change your oil furnace filter, you can inadvertently crack the heat exchanger. If you have a gas oil furnace like me, a cracked heat exchanger can result in carbon monoxide leaking into the house. Even though I have carbon monoxide detectors, it’s the cost of replacing a broken heat exchanger that is the first thing on my mind. It seems beyond silly to cause hundreds of dollars worth of destruction to your Heating, Ventilation plus A/C plan over a $10 filter. On top of that, if you order your filters in bulk quantities over the internet, you can pay a fraction of that price. There’s no excuse not to replace your Heating, Ventilation plus A/C filter at least every four to numerous weeks if it’s used weekly.
