And when I seen this one brand of air filters on sale I grabbed them because they were so cheaply priced! Little did I know that these air filters were for some industrial sized commercial HVAC system! These were not going to work in my basic residential central HVAC unit! I took them back to the hardware store and told the sales person that I made a mistake
I know nothing about the deep workings of a central heating and air conditioning system. As a matter of fact I don’t even know the simple things I should know. Take air filters for instance. All I knew about air filters were that you had to change them out at least every few months to keep good air quality flowing through your home from the heating or air conditioning. What I did not know was that there were different types of air filters. Mainly, the difference between commercial heating and air conditioning system filters and residential heating and air conditioning system filters! Some commercial air conditioning and heating filters were the same as the residential. But some were different. I found this out when I made a big mistake and bought commercial heating and air conditioning system air filters! I went to the hardware store to buy some air filters for my central heating and air conditioning system. And when I seen this one brand of air filters on sale I grabbed them because they were so cheaply priced! Little did I know that these air filters were for some industrial sized commercial HVAC system! These were not going to work in my basic residential central HVAC unit! I took them back to the hardware store and told the sales person that I made a mistake. The sales person almost laughed in my face! They assumed that everyone knew the difference in air filters. I was kind of feeling like a fool honestly. But the way I see it is that I learned something new about heating and air conditioning systems that day.
