About This Product
The HDX Premium Allergen air filter is made with a reinforced pleated media designed to capture particles down to the micro particle level. This filter captures airborne contaminants as small as 0.3 mic in size. In comparison, a human hair is 100 mic in size. The HDX Premium Allergen's electrostatic charge helps attract and trap airborne pollutants that would otherwise bypass the filter. Because of its unique construction, this FPR10 air filter requires less energy consumption which makes it an upgraded solution when comparted to FPR 9 and FPR 7 air filters.
Highlights
- FPR 12 air filters are best suited for capturing particles as small as 0.3 mic in size including dust mite debris, pet dander, pollen, dust and lint, mold spores, bacteria, cough and sneeze particles, most smoke, allergens, odors, and smog particles
- Pleated design and extended surface area offer more space to capture contaminants and trap more than 98% of airborne particles
- Constructed of a durable, moisture-resistant cardboard frame with wire supported media for strength and rigidity
- Item represents 1 filter that will last up to 3-months in a typical household environment and can be reordered through our subscription service

Questions & Answers
Does this filter have activated carbon layers? Does it have volatile organic compounds (VOC's)? If so then I will have to choose a different filter since this type will aggravate my cat's asthma. Please advise before I order it. Thank you

what does merv rating mean and what is the best
Greetings! I appreciate your inquiry and am happy to assist you! MERV stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. It is a measurement that indicates how effectively an air filter traps particles. The higher the MERV rating, the more particles the filter is capable of capturing. For example, this HDX filter has a MERV 13 rating. A MERV 13 filter is considered premium and is designed to capture a wide range of particles, including: - Dust - Lint - Pet dander - Pollen - Dust mites - Bacteria - Mold spores - Smoke - Smog - Allergens While a higher MERV rating generally means better air filtration, the "best" MERV rating depends on your specific needs and your HVAC system's capabilities. Filters with very high MERV ratings can sometimes restrict airflow, which might put a strain on some HVAC systems. It's always a good idea to check your HVAC system's manual or consult with an HVAC professional to determine the highest MERV rating suitable for your unit. We truly value your business and look forward to the opportunity to serve you again in the future. Wishing you a fantastic day!
