Next question: do you actually replace your furnace/AC filters when suggested?

Once a year at worst, twice a year at best.

I think I average every 6 months. If I wait too long it gets really loud

Every 6 months. Right before AC season and right before furnace season. There is enough dust I should probably do it

I use ones that are rated for 6 months (supposedly) so I change them every

This is what I should probably do. Just get the 6 month ones.

I also swap out my smoke detector batteries once a year - over conference

I try to do it twice a year but I probably only get around to it every 8 months

I buy the cheap filter that says 3 months, and then change them once a month.

I do it during General Conference as my reminder.

I wasn’t that specific about changing them before- I’d just change them when I noticed they looked bad, which was once

Yes religiously! Every month

New thermostat sends me a reminder. Seems like every 4 months.
