There are many Cooling Furnace filters in the market, but purchasing the correct furnace filter can take a lot of research!. As a result, Nordic Pure’s filters may be a little more expensive than those of lesser quality. Furnace filters with a MERV 12 rating , electrostatic-charged media, pleated design
filters are effective 97.8 % on capturing 3 – 10
micron airborne particles. A MERV 12 rating
represents the best balance between airborne
particulate removal of dust, pollen, airborne
pathogens, etc. and overall HVAC system
efficiency.
The cheapest and most common
type of air filter or furnace filter on the market today is
probably the panel air filter using fiberglass
as the filter media. The danger with these
filters is that they only remove the large
particles and can’t remove the smaller ones like
allergens. If the fiberglass breaks and enters
the air, it can be a serious health issue. While
Nordic Pure’s air filters have a MERV 12 rating,
these cheaper air filters only rate a MERV 1-4.
Nordic furnace filters does not
endorse the use of fiberglass filters, both
because of their limited ability to filter the
air, especially smaller particulate and the
health implications. Nordic only manufactures
their electrostatically charged, pleated air
filters which offer a larger surface area in
which to extract the microorganisms as they pass
through the air and filter. Cheap furnace
filters represent a health hazard. If the
fiberglass breaks and small particles float
through the air, there is a very real
possibility that you could ingest fiberglass.
Fiberglass air conditioner furnace
filters are designed only to capture large
particles and to protect your heating and air
conditioning system; they do nothing to remove
smaller particles like many allergens. These
types of air conditioner furnace filters also
have either no MERV rating assigned to them or
in some instances, have a MERV rating of from 1
to 4. Nordic Pure anti-allergenic air
conditioner furnace filters not only protect
your HVAC system from dust, and other airborne
particles, Nordic furnace filters also remove up to 97.8%
of the pollen, pet dander, dust mites, mold
spores, tobacco smoke and other airborne
particles in the indoor air. Since the average
person spends 2-3 times more time indoors than
outdoors, it is the healthier choice to have the best furnace filter. Wouldn’t
you rather pay more for an effective furnace
filter than a cheap furnace filter? How
important is the health of your family to
you?
