What’s Lurking in Your Air?

According to the EPA, indoor air can be 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air, with allergens, pollutants, and pathogens like mold spores, dust, and bacteria.

Cleaner Air, Healthier Living with HEPA and Media Filters

HEPA Filter

HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters capture 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, including pollen, pet dander, and smoke particles.

HEPA filters are used in hospitals and clean rooms, showing their reliability in removing harmful particles from the air.

Media Filter

Media filters provide deep filtration layers, trapping large particles like dust and hair while reducing airflow resistance.

These are ideal for homeowners who want enhanced air filtration with less frequent replacements compared to standard filters.

What Type of Furnace Filter is Right for Your Home?

DISPOSABLE FIBERGLASS

Disposable fibreglass furnace filters are generally the cheapest and lowest quality furnace filters available. These are best used for filtering larger particles, such as during home renovations.

DISPOSABLE PLEATED

Disposable pleated filters are the most common type of furnace filter used in homes. Pleated filters are denser than fibreglass filters, and their wavy design creates more surface area to capture dust.

PERMANENT REUSABLE

Permanent washable furnace filters have a lot of perks if you want to commit to the cost and maintenance. They last an average of 5 years with proper care, and should be checked and cleaned regularly.
