🌬️Want cleaner air and a healthier home?
It all starts with the right air filter. And Hunter Service Group can take the guesswork out of it—we’ll help you pick the right filters for your home 🏡.
Most HVAC systems are designed to run best with MERV 8 filters—they strike the perfect balance between catching harmful particles and letting your system breathe easy.
Cheaper fiberglass filters might save a buck upfront 💵, but they let too much dust and debris pass through. That buildup can clog your system, lead to costly cleanings, and even increase the risk of mold in your ductwork.
On the flip side, filters labeled “hypoallergenic” or “allergen control” are usually MERV 13 or higher. While they catch more fine particles, they also make your HVAC system work harder—like sipping a soda through a coffee straw. The strain can reduce efficiency and shorten your system’s lifespan.
Bonus: During any inspection or maintenance visit, our pros will replace your filters for FREE.

Does the home seem to be constantly dusty, despite regular cleaning and dusting? The underlying cause of excessive dust in the home and on air vents can be damaged 
Is the household dealing with comfort issues, such as poor airflow or inconsistent temperatures throughout the home? Air duct problems like leaks and damage can reduce airflow from vents and create frustrating temperature variations from room to room. Homeowners may notice that certain vents in rooms that aren’t as cool have barely any cool air coming from them, while others work properly. This is because air leaks and damage allow some of the cool air to escape the ductwork before it reaches the air vents, leading to airflow issues and some rooms not getting as cool as others. 
A thoughtfully illuminated porch or patio can significantly improve the beauty and functionality of outdoor gathering areas. Proper lighting not only extends entertaining hours beyond sunset but also creates an inviting atmosphere that leaves a memorable impression. Wall-mounted fixtures and decorative lanterns provide both essential lighting and charm, making a visible difference in the ambiance.

A sudden spike in utility bills can serve as an indicator that the heating system isn’t operating efficiently. When heaters develop mechanical issues and need repair, they typically have to work harder and run longer to maintain desired temperatures, consuming significantly more energy. This increased energy consumption directly translates to higher utility costs, even when the heating habits of the household haven’t changed.
Ceiling fans are one of the most overlooked electrical improvements you can make to your home. Not only do they add style to a space, but they also provide comfort and energy savings.
Older homes that don’t utilize LEDs can drain energy and increase costs. Retrofitting with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) sooner rather than later pays for itself in the long run.
There is a reason that HVAC companies constantly remind homeowners about seasonal maintenance. In fact, there are several reasons why HVAC and heating maintenance are recommended. Annual maintenance of every heating system offers several key benefits:
Air filter replacement is recommended every three months. Some manufacturers say their products will last for six months, but since they are cheap, sticking to seasonal replacements isn’t a bad idea. If people in the home suffer from allergies or pet dander is a problem, more frequent changes may be necessary. 
LED Christmas lights have gained popularity in recent years for their energy efficiency and cooler operating temperatures. Unlike incandescent Christmas lights, which can become hot to the touch after prolonged use and pose a potential fire hazard, LED lights remain relatively cool, reducing the risk of igniting nearby flammable materials. 
Creating a visually appealing holiday display should not come at the expense of safety. Homeowners should ensure that decorations and lights are securely fastened to prevent them from falling, which can become a safety hazard. Strategically placing outdoor Christmas decorations can not only enhance the visual appeal but also ensure the safety of everyone enjoying the display, especially in high-traffic areas. 
Like any appliance in the home, furnaces can pose a serious threat to homeowners should they be damaged. Some of the concerns include: 
Replacing the air filter regularly is the easiest way to keep the furnace healthy and operating efficiently. Regular air filter replacement makes it easier for the HVAC unit to push air through the home, reducing energy needs and minimizing pressure on the furnace. 
Electrical and fire hazards can occur during the holiday season when damaged holiday lights and electric decorations are used. Before decorations go up, it’s crucial to 
Candles are a festive way to decorate during holidays. However, candles can cause house fires when unattended, so it’s crucial to blow them out before bed or before leaving the home. Turning off holiday lights and decor every night and before leaving the house saves energy and also helps reduce the risk of electrical hazards.
