Can hot water be run through the filter?

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Drinking Water Systems
The biggest problem with hot water is the sloughing off of chemicals/compounds which had been adsorbed. The heat causes the carbon pores to open up. which could result in lead or chemicals being released into the water. And, the carbon would not effectively reduce contaminants in the water. Hot water is usually under 212 degrees, and that isn't hot enough to alter the raw materials, so there wouldn't be any damage to the filter itself.

What a strange phenomenon it is, the choir. People opening their mouths and singing together. Seems odd to me in my current state of mind. Choir was really hard. They're all really good at singing parts, and caught on very fast, and I was totally left in the dust. It was fun in some ways but in others I was so outclassed that I don't think I can do it.

A clogged air filter will reduce the airflow through your system, which could cause the blower motor to malfunction. It can cause your system not to work like it should, and could cause your indoor unit to ice up. If the air filter surface is extremely dusty, vacuum first, then spray with a household cleaner (409 or Fantastic). Let it sit for a couple of minutes to allow the chemicals to work, then back flush with water, rinsing the particulate back out the way it came in. Rinse thoroughly.

How often do I need to replace / clean my filter?

Frequently Asked Questions

Essentially, you must replace the filter once it starts to reduce the air flow excessively. This can result in your furnace's heat exchanger over-heating, your safety limits getting damaged; it can even create a fire hazard1 It is also the leading cause of air conditioner services calls: a plugged filter can cause the evaporator coil to "freeze up".
