Air filters and smoke-detector batteries in Peachtree City
Heating and cooling both get a real workout in Peachtree City: Falcon Field averages about 51 days a year at 90°F or hotter and about 65 nights at or below freezing, so the system that pulls air through the filter runs in most seasons, not just one.
In the 2020 Census, about 20% of Peachtree City residents were 65 or older, and climbing to a ceiling alarm is an easy job to hand to a neighbor. If you offer it, a visit at each change of season, when the system switches between heating and cooling, gives customers a rhythm that's easy to remember.
Peachtree City's July afternoons average a 91-degree high, the stretch when a clogged filter makes an air conditioner work hardest.

Questions people ask
How often should air filters be changed?
It depends on the filter, pets and the season, so follow what the filter's package says. Many homes swap them every one to three months.
How often should smoke alarm batteries be changed?
Follow the alarm maker's instructions. Many people change batteries once or twice a year and test monthly, and some alarms have sealed batteries meant to last the life of the alarm.
How do I know if a smoke alarm is too old?
Alarms have a manufacture date printed on the back. If yours is past the maker's suggested life, the neighbor can point it out so you can replace it.
