Concerned about airborne bacteria & viruses
Choosing filtration responsibly
For airborne bacteria and virus concerns, look for:
Whole-home extended surface media filtration
A minimum MERV 13 rating
Systems designed for continuous airflow, not room-by-room guessing
Higher efficiency improves particle capture — but system design and airflow matter as much as the filter itself.
What to be cautious of:
Claims that promise complete protection
Ozone-producing or “active” air treatments
Devices that focus on killing rather than removing particles
Clean air is about removal and dilution, not chemical reactions.
