The Importance Of Proper Filtration w/ Zephyr Filters
Ғылым және технология
Jim highlights the significant impact of proper filter installation and maintenance in HVAC systems. Air filter bypass, a common yet overlooked issue, can lead to severe equipment failures such as dirty blower wheels, low airflow, and high maintenance costs. Proper filter fitment and selection are vital in preventing dirt from accumulating on essential components like evaporator coils and condensate drains, ensuring the system operates at peak efficiency.
Zephyr filters (aka Elite Air Filters) provide an even load distribution, which is crucial for maximizing filter media usage and maintaining airflow efficiency. These filters are designed to reduce pressure drops even when fully loaded, highlighting their capacity to maintain air quality without sacrificing performance.

Thanks, good to be back doing them again too.
We in the Netherlands are always amazed, on your filters systeem. but our filter system has a pressure guard at the front and back. As soon as it is dirty, the filter roll automatically replaces it.Replacement of the role once every 5 years

@1tomtomclub I would love to see the air filter system you are talking about. Can you send me some pictures or tell me the manufacturer? Thanks!
Surprised to see you got stamp face grills Jim coming from you. I don’t agree with high merv for comfort cooling even though the commercial side is basically geared towards that cause of the pandemic. I really like those filters cause of the guard for the bypass.
How do you seal the hole you poked in the filter media? Also, these are quite price filters for just the addition of some foam

A small piece of tape will do the trick.
nice content but have an issue
Disappointing...Filters are for the equipment not the people in the building. If people request this type of filtering address that. High merv filtering unnecessarily stresses the equipment.

Filters can definitely be used for the people they just must be designed to do so. Typically systems require about 2 times the surface area normally allotted. Keep the filter face velocity down between 250-300 FPM and you can use a much higher MERV filter without any problems.
