General Air Filter Information
This air filter is up to 15 times more effective than spun glass
on sub micron sized particles. It has about twice the surface area
of flat panel air filters and is designed to provide allergy relief
as well as odor control.. It 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 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.
Captures particles as small as 5 microns in diameter
Pet Dander
Mold Spores
Ragweed Pollen
Dust Mite Debris
Greater filter surface area for longer life and better efficiency
The Arm & Hammer Standard Pleated Air Filter has about twice
as much filtering surface area as an ordinary flat panel spun
glass filter. 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 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 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.
