MERV, or Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value, measures how well an air filter captures particles. Higher MERV ratings mean better filtration.
MERV 8: Captures pollen, dust mites, molds, and dust. Good for basic filtration needs.
MERV 11: Captures pollen, dust mites, molds, dust, auto exhaust particulates, pet dander, and allergens. Ideal for better air quality and allergy control.
MERV 13: Captures pollen, dust mites, molds, dust, auto exhaust particulates, pet dander, allergens, smoke, bacteria, and viruses. Best for superior air quality and advanced filtration.
Choose based on your specific needs for air quality and allergen control.
