What is a media filter?

A media filter is a thick, accordion-style air filter that captures far more particles than a standard 1-inch filter, while maintaining good airflow. They typically last 6 to 12 months.

Can a high-MERV filter damage my system?

Yes, if the system is not designed for it. Very dense filters can restrict airflow enough to damage the blower and coil. We recommend filters that balance filtration effectiveness with system compatibility.

Most homes use a basic 1-inch filter that replaces every month. A media filter upgrade delivers significantly better filtration, changes less often, and does not restrict airflow the way overly dense filters can.

Filter Upgrade Options

4 to 5-inch media filters installed in a dedicated filter cabinet
MERV 8 to 13 options depending on your needs and system
UV-compatible filter housings

We assess your system before recommending a filter upgrade to make sure the airflow stays healthy.
