Check Monthly and Breathe Easier
Your heat pump works hard to keep your home comfortable year-round. One of the simplest things you can do to help it operate properly is also one of the easiest to forget: checking your filter.
At Presidential Ventilation Systems, we recommend checking your heat pump filter every month and replacing standard disposable filters approximately every three months, or sooner if they look dirty.
Homes with pets, renovations, higher dust levels, or heavy system use may need more frequent filter changes.

Presidential Ventilation Systems supplies replacement filters in all common sizes for ducted heat pump systems.

Have a Heat Pump? Here's Where to Look
Where to Find Your Filter
The filter is located at the bottom of your ducted heat pump system, where the return duct connects to the indoor unit.
Finding the Correct Filter Size
To make sure we supply the correct replacement filter, we also need the model number of your indoor unit. Look for the model/serial number plate on your indoor heat pump.
What the Model Number Looks Like
This label contains the equipment information we use to identify the correct filter size for your system.
Have a Furnace? Here's Where to Look
To locate the model/serial number plate on your Daikin furnace, you will need to remove one of the front access panels.
Depending on the furnace, the model/serial number sticker may be behind the upper or the lower front panel. Please see the photos below for examples of where to look.
Furnace Filter Placement
The arrows show where the filter is located on a Daikin furnace system.
Behind the Upper Front Panel
Remove the panel that says Daikin. The sticker should be inside the furnace, along the inner edge/frame.
Behind the Lower Front Panel
On some models, the sticker is located on the back/inside of the removable door panel.
Once you find the sticker, please send us the model # so we can confirm your equipment information.
Why Is a Clean Filter So Important?
Your filter catches dust, pet hair and other airborne particles before they enter your heat pump system. As the filter gets dirty, it becomes harder for air to pass through.
Think of it like trying to breathe through a dirty cloth. Your heat pump can still operate, but it has to work harder to move the air your home needs.
Regularly checking and replacing your filter can help:
- Improve airflow throughout your home
- Maintain heating and cooling performance
- Reduce unnecessary strain on your heat pump
- Improve energy efficiency
- Keep dust and debris out of your HVAC equipment
- Support better indoor air quality
- Reduce the chance of avoidable service issues
- Help protect your investment and extend equipment life
Quick tip: Set a recurring reminder on your phone for the same day each month. It turns filter checks into a simple household routine instead of something that’s easy to forget.
In Addition To Changing The Filter — Keep It Maintained
Changing your filter is an important part of heat pump ownership, but it doesn’t replace professional maintenance.
Regular maintenance allows a trained technician to inspect, clean and test components throughout your system that aren’t accessible during a normal homeowner filter change.
