When choosing a air filter there are a few key words that should run through your mind
1. Price: Does it fit in your budget?
2. Frequency: How often are you going to replace it?
3. Quality: how well is the filter constructed, what kind of materials are used?
4. MERV rating: Will the filter trap all the particles you need to have filtered in your home or business to improve your Indoor Air Quality?
In the featured pictures you can see the wheel of a indoor blower motor that had used a fiberglass air filter and you can see how much debris in the air it CANNOT catch. These filters are inexpensive and most homeowners purchase this type. You replace these filters every 30 days depending on the environment in your home/business.
If you are interested in upgrading your home or business Indoor Air Quality I highly insist on using a pleated air filter with the correct MERV rating for your furnace. You can find out the rating in your owners manual for your furnace. Pleated filters are a bit more expensive compared to a fiberglass filter but you definitely get what you pay for. You replace this type of filter every 90 days depending on the environment in your home/business.
