    Multiple panels maximize filtering surface area for long service life. These ultra-efficiency air filters capture viruses, fine allergens, and even wildfire smoke and heavy pollution. They have a V-shape design and a rigid frame that withstands fluctuations in airflow, such as those created by variable air volume systems. The more filter panels they have, the more filtering surface they have for a longer service life.

    Extend the time between filter changes in areas where you need to control airborne contaminants, such as hospitals and clean rooms. Tight pleats create a larger surface area than standard pleats for a longer life.
    For a more affordable alternative to these HEPA filters, consider ultra-efficiency filters. They are made for areas where absolute filtration isn't required.
    Aluminum Frame—These filters last longer than our steel-framed filters. The V-shaped panels in the aluminum frame collect more dust, so they need to be changed less often.
