Filtrete Healthy Living Ultra Allergen Reduction HVAC Air

Filtrete Healthy Living Ultra Allergen Reduction HVAC Air Filter, MPR 1500, 12 x 30 x 1, 6-Pack
- Featuring high performing electrostatic technology, Filtrete Healthy Living filters proactively attract and capture microscopic particles, including: smoke, cough and sneeze debris, bacteria and viruses along with large particles like lint, dust and pollen from air passing through the filter
- Designed with Filtrete Brand 3-in-1 technology from 3M to pull in and trap unwanted air particles while letting clean air flow through
- 3 times better at small particle capture compared to non-electrostatic pleated filters for the capture of 0.3 to 1.0 micron particles.
- Outperforms fiberglass, washable and non-electrostatic pleated 1" filters
- Carries a 1500 Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR) that equates to Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value MERV 12
12"Â X 30"Â X 1" Filtrete Ultra Allergen Reduction Filter from 3M - #2042 - 6 pack The Filtrete Ultra Allergen Reduction Filter carries a 3MÂ Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR)Â ofÂ 1500 - roughly equivalent to a MERV 12 rating Click here for detailed comparison of 3M Filtrete 1"Â Filters Features: Meets the American Lung Association Health House Indoor Air Quality Guidelines No unnecessary antimicrobial chemicals added; Filtrete filtering material will not support the growth of bacteria, mold, mildew or fungi in normal use Contains electrostatically charged media to filter and attract particles in the air 90% effective at capturing large allergens like: Pollen MoldÂ sporesÂ Â Dust miteÂ debris Attracts andÂ capturesÂ microscopic allergens like: Smoke PetÂ dander Household dust Smog Bacteria Particles that carry viruses *Â This filter should be changed at least every 3 months.Â Certain conditions in your home will significantly add particles to the air - this will cause the filter to capture more particles, shortening it's life to less than 3 months.Â These conditions would include:Â dirty ductwork, pets, construction work, sanding projects, tobacco smoke, burning candles, fireplaces and wood-burning stoves. WHY USEÂ MPRÂ RATHERÂ THANÂ MERVÂ RATING? The Â Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) industry uses the ASHRAE 52.2 Standard, which assigns a Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) to a filter. One part of MERV reports a filter's ability to capture medium to large particles between 1 and 10 microns. This value is helpful in comparing the performance of different filters but it is not adequate alone because particles greater than one micron make up only about 1% of the contaminants in your indoor air. Another part of MERV addresses submicron particles. 3M calls this the MPR or Microparticle Performance Rating. It measures
