Air Filter Performance: New Method for Testing

Journal

The International Standards Organization is preparing to issue a new standard for testing and rating air filters, ISO 16890. The procedures offer possibilities for including local particulate air pollution conditions and indoor air quality levels in the selection of air filter systems for HVAC systems. This article introduces the standard.

HVAC Fundamentals Column: Efficiency & Effectiveness Matters: Evaluating HVAC Air Filter Performance

Journal

Efficiency and effectiveness are the names of the game when it comes to HVAC air filter performance. Efficiency refers to a filter’s ability to capture and remove contaminants from the airstream passing through the filter. Effectiveness, on the other hand, refers to how well an air cleaning system reduces overall particulate concentrations from the air we breathe. The partnership of efficiency and effectiveness is fundamental to well-designed building HVAC systems.

Seminar 64 : Combo Filters for IAQ and Energy Savings

Seminars

A combination particulate/gas phase filter is capable of controlling primary air pollutants to below levels specified by national air quality standards, as well as removing bacteria, mold and fungi. Since indoor contaminants consist both of particulates and airborne chemicals such as odors, VOCs and SVOCs, both types of filters are needed to treat the air. When dealing with HVAC and air pollution control systems, the pressure drop of a filter should be low while maintaining good airflow, as well as energy savings, throughout the life of the filter.
