There is more noise or air rushing sound from the vents after I changed the filters – is this normal?

Many people experience increased noise from the vents after replacing the filters and become unsure whether something is wrong with the ventilation system. This often occurs in connection with routine maintenance.

Yes, this is completely normal. New and clean filters allow more air to pass through than old and dirty filters. When the airflow increases, it can result in more rushing or airflow noise in the vents. This indicates that the ventilation system is once again operating as intended after the filter change.
