Title: 6 Types of Air Filter Should You Buy
16 Types of Air Filter You Should Buy
2Electrostatic air filters
- These filters rely on electricity or electronic
static. They dont block airflow to the HVAC
equipment, which means it can operate without
clogging. They have about a 90 percent efficiency
for clean air.
3Fiberglass panel filters
- You can purchase these inexpensive filters at any
store. The filter traps big dust particles, but
they quickly build up and cause airflow problems.
Therefore, youll want to replace these filters
frequently.
4Media air filters
- These filters are reliable and cost effective,
and HVAC professionals use them quite frequently.
Since they have a number of fiber layers,
contaminants are stopped before they make it all
the way through, and airflow isnt affected.
5Pleated air filters
- Pleated air filters are similar to media filters
but need to be changed more frequently. Particles
land on the cover of these filters, so the
particles are trapped without preventing airflow.
6HEPA media
- These media filters remove dust mites, pollen,
pet dander, household allergens and mold spores
and are over 99 percent efficient
7Activated carbon air filter
- Activated carbon air filters are used in
buildings with heavy smells and odors. The
charcoal base helps minimize the need for
camouflaging the odors, but theyre not as
efficient in removing particles as some other
options.
