Filtrete Ultra Allergen Reduction 1500 MPR vs Aprilaire Healthy Home 213 MERV 13

I order these 3M filters on a regular basis. The filters work fine however the last two times they have come damaged I couldn't tell that there was enough damage on a box to cause this kind of issue. I keep my filters in the box until I need them because it keeps them nice and straight and when I opened one that's too late to replace I noticed it's damaged beyond belief and the second pair that I have to bother to return is also damaged. Now I don't know how they're getting damaged but they need to either pad the box so any kind of pressure doesn't affect the delicate makeup of the filter or if they went in damaged

Why spend 150$ for the company to come change it when you can do it yourself! Easy to install, does great filtering. We have a multi animal home (5 cats and a dog) so we change this out every 6months.

One can even make an inexpensive quality air cleaner with an ordinary household fan and and air filter simply taped to it as is demonstrated by a Professor at the University of Michigan on you tube. Really a need for most homes in all American cities today.

I inserted it in our central air furnace and could not believe the difference! He slept well all night without a sniffle or stuffed up nose! These filters really work exceptionally well. Now I have to convince his school to install them because he and many other classmates suffer from allergies and it makes it hard on them to perform their best. Trust me, these work great. I stocked up on them and they are even tax deductible as a medical need! [This review was collected as part of a promotion

The Filtrete 20x25 size is also a good, snug fit, unlike some brands that are slightly smaller. However, as soon as the evening temperatures begin to fall below 40, I find that even a new filter will restrict air flow so much that I need to stand on a ladder to feel any heat coming from the ceiling vents. When I replaced it with a cheap fiberglass filter, the air flow greatly improved, but I also began to sneeze a lot and can see more dust on my furniture, so it's a double-edged sword, so to speak. In summary, I recommend this filter if you can get enough air flow from your vents to warm your home without putting too much stress on your heating unit

After some research I purchased this two pack of MERV 13 (max filtering capability recommended for home furnaces) Aprilaire part number 231 filter replacements and they work great. My wife is sensitive to the air and pollutants and has noticed a huge improvement in allergies, etc. Will buy again and will be installing new every 6 months for maximum efficiency.
