MERV
Rating
MERV, an acronym for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value, denotes the effectiveness of a filter in capturing airborne particles such as mold spores, pet dander, bacteria, pollen, and dust mites. For residential applications, a MERV rating in the range of 1-16 is typically recommended, while a rating of 17-20 is advised for specialized medical and commercial settings.

Replacement Frequency
Recommended Replacement
Keeping your air filters fresh is key to enjoying great air quality! It's important to replace or clean the filters in your ventilation system and furnace when needed. Over time, activated carbon can accumulate sediment, scale, organic contaminants, bacteria, and other buildup that impedes flow and filtration. This means your system has to work a bit harder, which can lead to higher energy bills. By keeping your air filters clean, you can expect efficient airflow and a more comfortable environment! It's a good idea to periodically clean carbon filters every 6–12 months or when you notice: Reduced water flow and pressure.
