FILTER EFFICIENCY
This chart illustrates the efficiency of different
filter types based on particle size.
FILTER LIFE
This chart illustrates increasing pressure
drop as the filter gets dirty.
TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS
An Electronic Air Cleaner or Media Filter
should be installed where maximum air
circulation is passing through the HVAC
system. Resideo offers air cleaners for
return duct or return grill installations.
For the most efficient air cleaning,
spread airflow evenly across the face of
the media, and choose a location that is
readily accessible for filter maintenance.

Growing Demand
Consumer demand for air cleaners has been on the rise in recent years. According to the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), indoor air can be 2 – 5 times more polluted than outdoor air. Informing homeowners of how filtered
air can increase overall comfort is an important selling point.
SIGNS THAT A HOME NEEDS AIR FILTRATION
• Pets
• Portables in multiple locations
• Central air conditioning
