- What is the MERV rating of the Carbon filters
- Pleated furnace filters and pleated AC filters will clean your home's air more effectively than low cost fiberglass air filters. Pleated home air filters are made from a synthetic media which can filter out much smaller particles from the air such as dust mites, mold, pet dander and even viruses in the case of high Merv rated filters. People spend up to 90% of time indoors being exposed to indoor air pollutants such as mold, building materials dust, smoke and household cleaning products. Change your home air filter regularly to avoid negative long-term health issues.

APR vs MERV
APR

This rating exists to demonstrate the different levels of efficiency throughout the Accumulair filter line. Generally speaking, the higher the APR, the better the filter performs in capturing small airborne particles. This rating system is an internal rating system and applies to Accumulair filters only.
MERV
MERV stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. It is a number from a test method designed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). The number is intended to help people compare filters. Generally speaking, a higher MERV rating indicates better filter performance.
