Title: Changing filters suddenly a joy
Post by: lighter on October 24, 2019, 01:50:17 PM

I'm one of those people always keeping an eye out for filters... 20x25x1, all brands.   I picked up the FILTRETE 1500 healthy living, electro static filters with the purple and white label, with the family sitting on the stairs. 

It's SO easy to pop in and take out.  Just a dream compared to all other brands, the last which I stuffed unceremoniously INTO the slot, knowing I'd forked it up. 

I think the cardboard is sturdier, but also it seems to be a tad more petite. 

If you're struggling with too tight filters, consider checking out this brand... best deal I found was at Walmart. 

They're expensive, but supposed to last up to 3 months.   I change every 4-6 weeks bc the system will last longer, or so I'm told.  I think I ended up paying under 14.00 per unit, and they're over 20.00 each on some sites.

Sounds like you found a good one.......Lighter
I've been finding light bulbs lately last longer then the old style ....
Funning but not how we come across something so simple but makes sense to pay extra and get a better deal...
Thanks.....Bettyanne xo

Our Goodwill stores, and Re Store Habitat for Humanity stores have 1.00 bulbs, and that's all I buy.  If I'm very careful, I make sure they're all warm or soft light, which makes a huge difference in how the room appears.

The cool light is harsh, and depressing.

You might check out your local stores.   I find large bulbs, outdoor bulbs, small bulbs, all kinds of bulbs... and make sure you buy the warm light bulbs!

Time to change the filter again!  I'm so looking forward to easily popping it out and back IN with ease!

I like having back up bulbs, toilet paper, and butter in the house, CB. 

And AC filters: )

I have a thing I want.

Soft pink LED lamp bulbs.

I can get soft pink original (non environment friendly) incandescent bulbs online.

I can get LED bulbs in LOUD pink.

But those lovely old-time soft pink lights that turn your home into a hug, in LED?

Not happenin'.

Boo.

Hops
