Electrostatic Air Filters for Bainbridge, GA Area Homeowners

This type of air filter is permanent and designed to last the lifetime of your heating and cooling equipment. They are washable, and while cleaning them correctly takes about 20 minutes once every one or two months they are a viable alternative to traditional disposable air filters.

The effectiveness of an air filter is measured by the MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) rating, where the higher the rating the fewer contaminants that can pass through it. Electrostatic air filters are typically assigned a MERV rating between four and ten while the most common MERV rating for a traditional residential air filter falls between eight and eleven; climbing as high as 14 for high efficiency HEPA filtration.

Electrostatic air filters consist of multiple layers of vented metal which allows air to pass through. As the molecules come in contact with the first layer the friction between the air and the metal cause them to become positively charged, and heavier molecules containing allergens, dander, mold spores and more become attached to the next several layers of metal and remain trapped there, while clean air molecules continue on their journey.

One of the most appealing features of this type of filter is that it’s a one time purchase and under normal circumstances should never have to be replaced. Additional benefits include:

• Allergy relief. Those who suffer from asthma, environmental allergies, or respiratory issues will welcome the reduction of contaminants such as pet dander, dust, and pollen.
• Cost savings. In addition to the money you’ll save on disposable filters, electrostatic air filters help keep system components free from harmful particulates which can cause unnecessary wear and tear on parts and shorten the longevity of your equipment.
• Cleaner home. Less dust means a cleaner home, and the time you’ll save on cleaning can be better spent with friends and family.
• Eco friendly. Traditional air filters are destined for the landfill at the end of their lifespan, but you can reduce your carbon footprint with this permanent alternative.
