Indoor Air Pollution
Most people are unaware of the harms of indoor air pollution, but it is more common than most people realize; according to the Environmental Protection Agency, the indoor air of most homes is at least 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air. This is because most houses today are constructed to inhibit outdoor airflow, but when too little outdoor air is allowed to flow inside, air pollutants begin to accumulate inside, where most people spend the majority of their time. This can have negative results. Breathing air contaminants like dust, pollen, and other allergens can cause or worsen breathing problems like asthma and allergies, as well as existing health problems like heart disease.
Higher Quality Filtration
The GeneralAire 13156 Filter is a whole house filter designed to fit Aprilaire/Space-Gard model 2400. Designed to attach to the HVAC system, this filter removes particulates flowing through the system, delivering purified air throughout the entire house.
Designed with accordion-style pleats that increase the filterTMs dust-holding capacity, this filter uses electrostatic filtration to remove particulates. Electrostatic filtration is a highly efficient method of filtration. As air flows through the electrostatically charged filter media, the oppositely charged particles are attracted to the filter like a magnet.
This filter is rated by MERV. MERV is the minimum efficiency reporting value, which is the scale designed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) to rate the effectiveness of air filters. It is given a MERV 10 rating, which means that it removes particulates like dust, dander, mold spores, pollen, and bacteria.
By removing these particulates from the air, the GeneralAire 13156 Filter not only protects the HVAC system and keeps it working more efficiently, but it also provides cleaner, healthier air. This filter removes a large number of contaminants, so it is necessary to keep it regularly replaced. Replacement depends on several factors, however, including rate of airflow, types of particulates, and air quality. Order today and experience better air and better breathing!
