Air Filters and Filter Housing Basics

In this video we’ll review air filters, filter housings, filter ratings, and how to use a VFD to maintain flow when filters get dirty. Most people spend the majority of their time indoors, so knowing all about filters is important for good air quality and health.
See how the MERV Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value for filters effects the particle size capture efficiency before buying an air filter. Remember that the system fan has to be able to handle the additional static pressure when increasing resistance due to filter upgrades.
