General Air Filter Information
The Arm & Hammer Elite Pleated Air Filter is up to 70 times
more effective than spun glass on sub micron sized particles. It
has about four times the surface area of flat panel air filters
and three times the surface area of a standard pleat. It is designed
to provide allergy relief as well as odor control and is made with
real Arm & Hammer Baking Soda, proven to remove various household
odors. The low airflow resistance allows for better equipment operation
and helps save energy. The filter media is electrostatically charged
and the air filter lasts up to 90 days.
Baking soda is made from an ore found in nature which is mined
and then processed to form sodium bicarbonate, also know as baking
soda. Odors are composed of chemicals that are diffused throughout
the air. The chemicals can be man-made or can be naturally occurring.
Baking soda is very effective on naturally occurring odor such as
food, pet and human body odors, more so than activated carbon. Baking
soda brings the pH to a more neutral or balanced state. This words
especially well on naturally occurring odors, which are usually
acids or bases and are not pH neutral. In an air filter each fiber
is coated with a fuzzy covering of baking soda. "Fuzziness"
increased both odor removal and gives more contact area for the
dust to collide and be captured by the filter.

Greater filter surface area for longer life and better efficiency
The Arm & Hammer Elite Pleated Air Filter has about four
times as much filtering surface area as an ordinary flat panel
spun glass filter and about three times as much as a standard
pleated.. This greater filtering surface reduces airflow restriction
for better fuel economy and allows greater loading for longer
life.
For Your Protection
Unlike unwrapped filters that collect dust and dirt sitting on
store shelves, Arm &Hammer Elite Pleated is sealed fresh a
the factory, so it's 100% clean and ready to work when you unwrap
it.
IMPORTANT
Running your furnace or central air conditioner with a blocked
air filter of any type may result in damage to the fan motor or
compressor. Due to the exceptionally high particle removal efficiency
of the Arm & Hammer Elite Pleated filter, it is very important
that the filter be checked regularly to ensure it is providing
normal airflow. In controlled test conditions, this air filter
will provide maximum performance for up to 90 days. However, in
certain high dust conditions, it may reach it's maximum dust holding
capacity in a shorter period of time.
