Review on ๐Ÿ’จ Enhanced Air Intake Performance: Energy Efficient & Breathable for High Performance by Jesse Diaz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Indispensable in every home!

I have been using the Filtrette for several years now. My family and I are very sensitive to dust, so when we buy a filter we usually choose the highest MPR/MERV rating. When I had my last system set up, my HVAC technician drew my attention to the fact that my system was running frequently due to the high pressure drop across the filter I was using and suggested changing my filter housing so I could use an air intake. Filter. It wasn't difficult for me because after some research I found that the 3M filter I was using not only unnecessarily taxed my HVAC system but also halved the filtering efficiency of sub-micron particles (wildfire smoke) particles, asbestos fibers, which are widespread in the Bay Area). Since using this filter my HVAC system hasn't been overloaded and it's nice to know I don't have to change the filter every three months.

Pros
  • MERV rated 16 - the highest rated domestic air filter for central heating/air conditioning systems
Cons
  • No performance
