The filter captures airborne particles, such as dust, fireplace or cigarette smoke, pet dander and cooking traces. At Confort Expert in Montreal, our team is often called on to install <a href=\"https:\/\/www.confortexpert.com\/en\/other-products\/air-exchanger\/\">air exchangers<\/a>. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve prepared this article to help you learn more about the different types of filters and make the best choice for your system.<\/p>\n<h2>Types of air filters<\/h2>\n<p>The quality and air-cleaning capacity of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.confortexpert.com\/en\/other-products\/air-filters\/\">air filters<\/a> vary greatly from one type to another. Here\u2019s an overview of the pros and cons of the different types.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Polyester or fibreglass.<\/strong> These affordable filters readily capture large particles like dust but are less effective overall. They\u2019re also easy to install but must be replaced frequently.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pleated.<\/strong> These high-performance, low-cost filters are disposable and easy to replace. <\/li>\n<li><strong>HEPA.<\/strong> These filters are the most expensive option but are highly effective. High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters provide the best level of filtration. Combined with a UV lamp and layer of activated carbon, this system filters and purifies the air. This is an excellent option for individuals who suffer from allergies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Benefits of a high-quality air filter<\/h2>\n<p>Equipping your air filtration system with a high-quality filter can help you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improve your system\u2019s efficiency<\/li>\n<li>Save money on maintenance, repairs and replacement<\/li>\n<li>Lower your heating and cooling bills<\/li>\n<li>Experience fewer allergy and asthma symptoms<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re looking for a new air exchanger or need help maintaining your current unit, Confort Expert in Montreal can help.
