We
have three regularly stocked filter types for air conditioning units.
Each type has a different level of quality associated with it. For
more information on air filtration, please see the section titled "Air Filter Information."

Monthly Disposable Polyester Throwaway Filters
This filter type is our standard grade filter. Don't let the
description fool you. Our polyester throwaways are far
superior to your average store bought fiberglass air filter.
Our polyester throwaways last an average of one month and have a much
higher efficiency than fiberglass.
Polyester has many factors resulting in a higher quality filter
compared to fiberglass. The two most notable factors are the
material and the manufacturing process. Fiberglass itself can be
an annoyance to use due to skin aggravation and allergies. Also,
if you take a look at your average fiberglass filter, you can see right
through it! Our polyester filters are more tightly woven in the
manufacturing process and you won't be able to read a newspaper through
them.

Vinyl Frame and Pad System
Our Vinyl Frame and Pad system is quite possibly the most popular
type among our residential customers. With this system, you get a
permanent, highly durable, and stable vinyl frame
and replacement filter media. The frame will last the
lifetime of the unit and the media is replaced every month. The
media itself is identical to our polyester throwaways except for
one difference. On the downdraft side of the media, the surface
is tackified, which means it is sticky. The tackified surface
results in a slightly higher efficiency, which is a small
improvement over our polyester throwaways.
Besides that it's a higher quality filter media, it is our most cost
effective system. Once you have the frame, the filter media is
much less costly than our disposable types. Our Vinyl Frame and
Pad System gives you a high quality, inexpensive, and easy to use
alternative for air filtration.

Merv-8 Rated Pleated Filters
Our disposable pleated filters are the highest quality filter option
with the least amount of work for the user. The Merv-8 rating makes it
our highest efficiency filter that we regularly stock. The average
efficiency of these pleated filters are much higher than our other
stock filter types. Also, since the surface is pleated (looks like an
accordion), there is much more surface area to catch more debris.
Because of the added surface area, these filters last 3 months. Our
pleated filters offer many benefits for customers who want the least
amount of hassle.
As far as expense, these filters are a great deal. You get less
work and a much higher quality filter than our regular
polyester monthly disposable for only pennies more per month. Also, for
people with allergies and problems with household/building maintenance,
this is a great option to try.
