- Merv 8 furnace filters and AC filters can remove indoor air contaminants such as pollen, dust, lint, dust mites debris and pet dander. HVAC filters with an electrostatic charge have fibers that contain both negative and positive charges in the filter fibers. The charged fibers attract dust and airborne particles to make your home's air clean and safe for you and your family. Today, people spend up to 90% of their time indoors. This makes the air we breathe inside important to our short and long-term health. Indoor air pollutants such as household cleaning products, mold and pet dander can be effectively cleaned from the air when a home's air filter is changed every 90 days or sooner. Don't risk you or your families health. Be sure to follow the manufacturer recommendations and even change your HVAC filter sooner if it is dirty when checked.
