I have a lot of memories as a kid.
When I was younger I would always be outside playing.
I was hardly ever indoors behind a TV or playing video games. Kids these days are always in front of the TV or behind some kind of screen playing games. I’m glad that I wasn’t one of those kids. I would be outside playing soccer, kickball or riding bikes with all of my childhood friends. Every time that I was outside my dad would be outside washing his cars or helping my mom with the landscaping. What I also remember is my dad buying these weird looking flat accordion things. Now that I’m older I realized that they weren’t accordions, it was an air filter. The air filter went to the HVAC system that was located in the basement of our house. The air filter would filtrate any unnecessary particles that would be lingering in the HVAC system or throughout the house. I remember my dad changing the filter out every few months or so because I could hear him downstairs. He would then bring up the old and dirty filter and show us the stuff that was in the air. I would be grossed out and then run away. Now that I understand more about maintaining an HVAC system, it is important to change out your filter every three months or so. You should change it more consistently if you have a lot of pets living in your home. If you do not change the filter very often, there can be unnecessary stress that can be placed on your HVAC system since it is working harder than normal.
