MERV 8 Air Filters Profile
Are you still using cheap filters like fiberglass? Unfortunately, those discount filters are doing more harm than good. Those cheaply made filters can be the cause of costly HVAC system repairs and severe health problems.
Our MERV 8 filters are constructed of high-quality pleated filter media that will effectively reduce pollen, dust, pet dander, dust mites, and other allergens as small as 3.0 microns in your home’s air. Filters with a MERV 8 are recommended for the average household.

What is air filter MERV rating?
The Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) is used by manufacturers to explain how efficient the air filter is at trapping airborne particles. A higher MERV rating means cleaner air but reduced air flow. MERV 8 filters capture 80% of airborne particles like pollen, dust mites, mold spores, and pet dander down to 3 microns in size. MERV 11 air filters capture up to 95% of the above-mentioned airborne particles down to 1 micron in size. If you choose a MERV 13 filter expect greatly diminished airflow but improved filtration of bacteria, tobacco smoke, and cooking oil down to 0.3 micron in size. Before you choose a MERV rating check with your HVAC manufacturer to see what your system is designed to handle. Picking the wrong filter can impact air flow and reduce equipment life.
