$6 FACTORY REBATE AVAILABLE THROUGH JUNE 30TH, 2011 16" X 25" X 1" Filtrete® Ultra Allergen Reduction Filter from 3M - #2001 - 6 pack The Filtrete® Ultra Allergen Reduction Filter carries a 3M Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR) of 1500 - roughly equivalent to a MERV 12 rating Click here for detailed comparison of 3M Filtrete® 1" Filters Features: Meets the American Lung Association® Health House® Indoor Air Quality Guidelines No unnecessary antimicrobial chemicals added; Filtrete filtering material will not support the growth of bacteria, mold, mildew or fungi in normal use Contains electrostatically charged media to filter and attract particles in the air 90% effective at capturing large allergens like: Pollen Mold spores Dust mite debris Attracts and captures microscopic allergens like: Smoke Pet dander Household dust Smog Bacteria Particles that carry viruses * This filter should be changed at least every 3 months. Certain conditions in your home will significantly add particles to the air - this will cause the filter to capture more particles, shortening it's life to less than 3 months. These conditions would include: dirty ductwork, pets, construction work, sanding projects, tobacco smoke, burning candles, fireplaces and wood-burning stoves. WHY USE MPR RATHER THAN MERV RATING? The Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) industry uses the ASHRAE 52.2 Standard, which assigns a Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) to a filter. One part of MERV reports a filter's ability to capture medium to large particles between 1 and 10 microns. This value is helpful in comparing the performance of different filters but it is not adequate alone because particles greater than one micron make up only about 1% of the contaminants in your indoor air. Another part of MERV addresses submicron particles. 3M calls this the MPR or Microparticle Performance Rating. It measures a filter's ability to capture particles between 0.3 and 1.0 micron. Based on independent laboratory tests, 3M's MPR measures a filter's ability to capture submicron particles that make up 99% of the particles in the air, such as bacteria, smoke and smog.

We use this in our central air/heat unit. We have four dogs and this filter does wonders to keep the coil from becomming cloged. I used to use the .99 cent fiberglass ones but changed last year at the behest of my service man. Boy what a
difference ! of course they are not cheap, but they make up for it in the long run.

This is a great product and filter-outlet is a great online retailer. My wife has allergies and this has been the best filter we have tried. They are expensive, but if you can afford them, then they are well worth the price.

By the way, filter-outlet has the cheapest price I have found.

Due to allergies I run my air handler 24x7x365, and using 3M Ultra Alergen Filtrete filters keeps my air very clean. We don't have to dust furniture very often. The filters last 2 months between changing!
