Allison Bailes Discusses How to Retrofit Forced Air HVAC With High Merv Filtration

rockies63 | Posted in General Questions on

Here is an excellent article from author Allison Bailes which I found in The Journal of Light Construction (April 2021 edition) about how to retrofit forced-air HVAC with higher-Merv filtration. Apparently it’s not just a question of switching out a cheap filter for a better one, and the higher resistance from the Merv filter may require an HVAC system redesign.
