It's all how you view it... an air filter can go 'bad'... requiring
repair (replacement). Logically should be no different from heads
which go bad and require repair (replacement). Otherwise there could
be an argument made for replacing the heads being a refurbishment,
and this requiring bringing it up to standards.. depends on the
definition of refurbish...
