Using MERV 13+ Filters May Minimize Virus Spread

HVAC filtration plays a key role in minimizing the spread of viruses like SARS-CoV-2 by capturing respiratory droplets. ASHRAE recommends using MERV 13 or higher filters for effective filtration without compromising HVAC performance. Proper installation, sealing, and regular testing are essential to ensure airflow passes through the filter. Upgrading to higher-efficiency filters may increase pressure drop, requiring system evaluation and potential fan adjustments. Working with a certified professional and using reliable tools like TSI instrumentation ensures safe, efficient HVAC operation and optimal indoor air quality.
