Revised Product Description:

Maintaining clean indoor air quality is crucial for your home or business. To ensure your air stays fresh, it's essential to replace air filters regularly and dispose of old ones properly.

The MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) rating system evaluates a filter's ability to capture larger airborne particles ranging from 0.3 to 10 microns (µm) in size.

MERV 8 air filters are effective at trapping 90% of the airborne particles typically found in the average home. MERV 11 filters are effective at capturing 95% of airborne particles in a typical home. MERV 13 filters excel at trapping 98% of airborne particles in a standard household.

Before purchasing a replacement filter, consult your owner's manual or measure your existing filter to identify the correct size. Remember, the arrow on the filter should point towards the blower in your HVAC unit, or towards the wall/ceiling if the filter is wall-mounted.

Regularly replacing your air filter ensures cleaner, healthier, and fresher indoor air, promoting improved well-being and reducing allergy/asthma symptoms. Timely filter changes also help your HVAC system operate more efficiently, potentially lowering your energy costs and maintenance requirements.

The optimal MERV rating for your home will depend on your specific HVAC system and the size of your living space. You'll need to strike a balance between removing the maximum number of airborne contaminants and maintaining adequate airflow.

As a general guideline, experts recommend changing air filters every 30 to 90 days, with more frequent replacements during peak seasons. Signs that it's time to change your filter include increased home dustiness, longer runtime of your HVAC system, difficulty reaching desired temperatures, visible filter dirtiness, and louder furnace operation.

Our high-quality, easy-to-install air filters are made from moisture-resistant cotton fibers and sturdy paperboard, featuring an electrostatically charged pleated design to capture more harmful airborne particles than standard fiberglass filters.
