Are Nordic Pure Air Filters Electrostatic? What Does That Mean?

Nordic Pure: Frequently Asked Questions
Nordic manufactures all of our air filters using a filter media that contains a permanent electrostatic charge causing dust to cling to the air conditioner furnace filter using the same principle as static electricity. As a consequence, our air filters are far more effective and efficient than traditional pleated filters. Nordic does not endorse or sell the permanent metal electrostatic filters.

Will Nordic Pure Air Filters Cause Air Flow Problems Through My HVAC System?

Nordic Pure: Frequently Asked Questions
Nordic Pure Merv 12 filters have a low air flow resistance for residential and commercial heating and cooling systems. Air flow is generally measured as a difference in air pressure on each side of the filter, measured by an instrument that uses water in a measured column to show air pressure. The higher the pressure difference, the more the water in the instrument moves. Its movement is measured in inches. The more inches of water moved, the more the pressure difference.

Do Nordic Pure Air Filters Kill germs, Reduce Dust and Eliminate Odors?

Nordic Pure: Frequently Asked Questions
Nordic Pure air filters do not kill germs, however, the material our air filters are made out of does not permit the growth of bacteria or mold. As a result, it is not necessary to add any potentially irritating chemicals to the air filter to kill germs. Odors are most often a combination of gas and particulate. Nordic Air Filters do not remove the gases but can remove the particulate.

What are all the different sizes of air filters Nordic manufactures?

Nordic Pure: Frequently Asked Questions
Long before we began to look at air filters as a source for improving our indoor air, manufacturers of heating and cooling systems routinely incorporated air filters into the design of their air handling equipment to minimize the invasion of life-robbing air pollutants like dust, dirt, pollen and other airborne particulates. Little consideration was given to the quality of the air that was passing through the system and into the living area.

Can filters actually "change the air" in a room?

Air Filters and Air Cleaners - FAQ
Yes. When shopping for an air filter system, look for one that can recirculate 8 or 10 room volumes per hour. This doesn't guarantee completely clean air, but it will be much cleaner than with systems that recirculate less. You should also ask about efficiency. You need a system that removes more than 90 percent of all particles larger than 0.3 microns in diameter. Most indoor allergens are larger than this, so this efficiency standard will handle them easily.

Where Are My Air Filters Located?

Nordic Pure: Frequently Asked Questions
Air conditioner furnace filters in most homes are generally located behind an air intake grate in your home’s walls, ceiling, basement or attic. These generally look like large vents, but the air flows into them, rather than out of them when the heating or cooling system is blowing air. They may also be located in or near the air conditioner or furnace. Many homes may have more than one, and they may be different sizes.

What About Aluminum Washable Air Filters?

Nordic Pure: Frequently Asked Questions
Though we touched on the subject at the beginning of the FAQ’s, you will find this is no longer a popular option as the handling of messy, used filters combined with the cleaning process turns off most people. Reusable filters must be cleaned and maintained as much as 2-3 times more frequently than disposable pleated air filters. Pay special attention to the removal of all moisture before reinserting the reusable air filter back into the HVAC system.

How Are Pleated Merv 12 Air Filters Better Than Fiberglass Air Filters?

These types of air conditioner furnace filters also have either no Merv rating assigned to them or in some instances, have a MERV rating of from 1 to 4.

Genesis Air - Creating clean air to breathe
Air filters, including High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters have been used for many years in heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
