The average throw-away filter has an arrestance between 10% and 40%. ACIs permanent, electrostatic, washable air filter has an arrestance of 95% (Ashrae Test 52-1-92). (Arrestance by definition is to seize or capture). Not only does our electrostatic filter capture more particulates, but it is a renewable or GREEN product.
