High Filtering Capacity

These filters have a MERV 8 rating, with an 88% arrestance capacity, capturing particles as small as one micron, which includes pollen, dust, bacteria, mold spores, pet dander, and smoke. Air flowing through a maze of static prone fibers creates an electrostatic charge which more effectively captures particles.

Air-Care permanent electrostatic filters allow maximum airflow, while holding up to 126 grams (4.4 ounces) of dust before requiring cleaning.

Sturdy Silver Frame

Made from a single piece of roll-formed galvanized steel, this frame is fastened together at one corner with a single rivet. Filtering media consist of 2 layers of polypropylene between 2 layers of expanded steel for improved airflow and rigidity.
