Our house is in project mode and I couldn’t be happier. Of course, project mode also brings chaos. With painters and contractors in and out, our dog Jack the Goldendoodle has been a bit unsettled — he was delighted when he found his way back to his favorite ottoman. It’s amazing how much a familiar spot helps you feel at home, even when everything else is in flux.

Side note: We have no shortage of chairs — they seem to multiply around the house during projects. I don’t know why, but they’re everywhere.

Besides painting, we built a new wall to create an office and removed the carpet from our staircase (the rest will come out soon). The work has stirred up a lot of dust, but this home was well cared for before we moved in, and we’re committed to keeping it clean and healthy as we renovate.

With an older house, remodeling and even a newly built home next door, dust becomes a major concern. We’re sensitive to dust and are replacing carpet with hard surface floors, and we also wanted to be sure the HVAC filters in the house were clean and functioning.

We’d used FilterEasy in our previous home to have filters delivered directly to our door, so when they reached out about our new place it was an easy decision to order replacements. I appreciate a service that handles routine maintenance reminders. You can try FilterEasy for free — the first set of filters ships free, and there’s no long-term obligation; you can cancel or adjust the subscription at any time. See the end of this post for details about the free trial and how to enter their $250 Amazon gift card giveaway.

Filter Easy - The Inspired Room

The air return vent in this room looked neglected, but FilterEasy offers nearly every standard filter size and can ship custom sizes if needed, so we were able to get the right filter without hassle.

Filter Easy - Subscription Air Filter Delivery Service

I’m glad we ordered a filter — there wasn’t one in the return vent before! Return vents can collect a surprising amount of dust. Without a filter, that dust circulates through the room and into the lungs, and it can clog or damage your ducts and HVAC system, possibly leading to expensive repairs. A proper filter helps protect both your air quality and your equipment.

Changing filters is simple. Even if you’re not handy, it’s straightforward: pop the vent cover off, remove the old filter and slide in the new one — no special tools required.

This summer we’ll bring a new sectional downstairs and rearrange the furniture (we won’t keep all the chairs here, promise). We don’t have the final layout yet, but that’s the fun part of a remodel. Right now, getting the room’s shell ready and installing clean air filters means the space will be fresh and welcoming for family movie nights.
