1. A method for notifying a service life of a filter, comprising:
providing at least one filter for filtering an air pollution source;
providing at least one gas detection device disposed in at least one gas path where the air pollution source has been filtered by the filter, for detecting the air pollution source and outputting a detection data of the air pollution source;
providing at least one connection device for receiving, computing and comparing the detection data of the air pollution source detected by the gas detection device, so as to display at least one reducing rate of filtering efficiency for the filter after filtering the air pollution source; and
providing a notification alert for replacing the at least one filter when the reducing rate of filtering efficiency for the filter after filtering the air pollution source computed by the at least one connection device reaching a preset alert value,

wherein the gas detection main body comprises:
a base comprising:
a first surface;
a second surface opposite to the first surface;
a laser loading region hollowed out from the first surface to the second surface;
