Elevate the Performance of your HVAC System.

While higher MERV and HEPA filters are efficient at trapping  smaller particles at a higher rate, not all air conditioning units  have the needed air pressure capacity or power to pull air  through a higher efficiency filter. Friedrich's robust, commercial-grade product lines VRP, Vert-I-Pak, and Kühl Room Air Conditioners have all been tested for use with MERV 13 filtration and are able to provide the best in indoor  air quality protection, while never sacrificing your desired temperature and comfort.

MERV 13 filters blocks 98% of pollutants from the air.

Pleated filterers that trap particles as small as .3 microns, keeping dust, debris, lint, pollen, pet dander, smoke, smog, mold spores, bacteria, and microscopic allergens out of your space. It’s also the most efficient filter for larger particles:

  • 3-10 micron particles (Dust, lint, spores, mold): Captures 98% of particles this size
  • 1-3 micron particles (Bacteria, finer dust, animal dander): Captures 90% of particles this size
  • < 1-micron particles (bacteria, tobacco smoke, cooking smoke): Captures about 75% of particles this size
MERV Filter

What is a MERV filter rating?

MERV, or an air filter’s Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value - measures how effectively the filter stops dust and other contaminants from passing through the filter and into the air stream.

Filters with a MERV 13 rating traps small particles more effectively than filters with lower MERV ratings.

Leading Authorities Recommend MERV-13 Filters

Leading authorities, including the CDC, EPA, and ASHRAE  recommend upgrading your filter to a MERV 13 or higher to help guard against the spread of infectious airborne particles, including COVID-19. Mechanical filters trap particles and pollutants in the airstream as they pass through the filter. MERV 13 filters are 85% or more effective at capturing particles down to 1 micron in size *(*ASHRAE Standard 52.2-2017). The COVID-19 virus travels on particles and nuclei between 1 and 6 microns in size​​.

Localized In-Room Protection 

Friedrich believes in localized in-room IAQ solutions. FreshAire™ IAQ solutions attack at the poor air quality source and prevents systemic building contamination from developing.​
