Filters must be installed in either the central return register or
in the return air duct work.
CIRCULATION A IR F ILTERS
One of the most common causes of a problem in a forced air
heating system is a blocked or dirty filter. Circulating air filters
must be inspected monthly for dirt accumulation and replaced
if necessary. Failure to maintain clean filters can cause prema-
ture heat exchanger failure.
A new home may require more frequent replacement until all
construction dust and dirt is removed.
Consider installing an air cleaner with deep-pleated media filter
at the time of furnace installation. A deep-pleated filter with a
MERV rating of 8 (minimum) will often provide better filtration to
protect equipment and the air distribution system than a stan-
dard 1" filter and often has lower static pressure loss than a 1"
filter. Also a deep-pleated filter will typically require less fre-
quent replacement intervals. Avoid using highly restrictive 1"
filters which produce static pressure loss greater than .25" W.C.
In some installations the minimum filter size required (consult
filter sizing chart ) will not lend itself to a filter installation on the
side of the furnace. The installation of a centrally installed air
cleaner cabinet or a return duct filter installation may offer more
practicality.
Clean Comfort™ brand MERV 11 air cleaners have 5¼” media
filters and are available in the following configurations. Consult
