MERV = 'Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value' this is used to rate the overall effectiveness of an Air Filter. Below you will find a table that measures the MERV strength and tells you the Application of each unit's effectiveness. In general an Air Filter with a higher MERV Rating is more effective and has a broader application, but most residential homes will find the best use from an air filter between the 5-13 MERV rating.

1 - 4 | > 10.0 Micrometers | Pollen, dust mites, cockroach debris, sanding dust, spray paint dust, textile fibers, carpet fibers | Residential window AC units |
5 - 8 | 10.0 - 3.0 Micrometers | Mold, spores, dust mite debris, cat and dog dander, hair spray, fabric protector, dusting aids, pudding mix | Better residential, general commercial, industrial workspaces |

A/C Filter
I have used these filters for many years in my air conditioner. They are a quality product living in Florida, they have to be good as they get used almost every day! A quality product and easy to order direct from Honeywell.

Upgrade to the Best
Our HVAC technician recommended that we use Honeywell's four-inch high efficiency air filter, pointing out that the space in our system called for this deeper filter. Who knew? For years we were using the 1-inch. Delivery was very prompt, fit is perfect and we are breathing healthier!
