Your outdoor AC unit pulls air from outside through your HVAC system that eventually circulates through your home. If dust and debris gather around the indoor units they will also circulate through your home.
A dirty filter will not trap debris. It will also make your units less effective. Less expensive filters are meant to protect the equipment, they do little to trap the microscopic particles that cause the sneezing and wheezing of allergy season.
Wipe these down using a damp or treated rag to prevent kicking the particles back up.
Spring and Fall are the best times to check all your systems. This is when they are getting the least amount of use. Contact the experts at Beyer Heating & Cooling to see what maintenance plan is best for your HVAC system.
If spores or mold cause your allergies adjust your indoor humidity to below 60%.
Using your system regularly filters out dust and kills mold growth.
