Pros
* Higher dust-holding capacity than most 1-inch filters. Requires less frequent maintenance (filter replacements).
Cons
* Less than mediocre performance at filtering 0.3-1µm particles, which are more likely to lead to chronic lung-related conditions.
* OK performance at filtering 1-3µm particles, which are more likely to cause various respiratory problems and other health and productivity issues.
* OK permeability. The lower the permeability score, the more strain the filter would put on your equipment which can dramatically increase the cost of operating your furnace, air conditioner, and heat pump.
* Requires an aftermarket filter housing which could potentially require a professional installation.
* OK performance at filtering 1-3µm particles, which are more likely to cause various respiratory problems and other health and productivity issues.
* OK permeability. The lower the permeability score, the more strain the filter would put on your equipment which can dramatically increase the cost of operating your furnace, air conditioner, and heat pump.
* Requires an aftermarket filter housing which could potentially require a professional installation.
