What is the benefit of using replaceable filters?
Once a filter has become ‘fully loaded’ with particles it will become much less effective at filtering due to reduced air flow and lost electrostatic charge. Some permanent filters require regular cleaning or washing. This process often returns particles back to the environment and doesn’t effectively remove all the particles from the filter. Cleaning and washing a filter may also remove its electrostatic charge and as a result impact the filters ability to capture particles. By replacing a filter after 3 months of continuous use effective purification is delivered on a sustained basis. Once Filtrete filters are fully loaded they and the captured allergens can then be disposed of effectively and easily.
