Chuck Roast: These filters are really good at picking up allnthe dust, pollen and other allergens. We have them set to subscribe and save.

P. Mazurek: We have to use this type for our A/C Heat pump. We change out every 4 to 5 months. We found it to be much cheaper on Amazon instead of going through April Aire. Believe me I shop around and Amazon had the better price. April Aire was a lot higher.

ChrisChris: Since installing an HVAC system, I've always used AprilAire MERV Filters. II also have an LED UV Light installed inline.

For this filter, I upgraded the original one, which was a MERV 11, up to MERV 16 to help filter out additional allergy and dust triggers. It seems to be working fine, though it's difficult to tell for sure how well it works.

Cycle:
- I have a heat pump / AC, so I switch these filters out every 6 months. As an experiment, I weighed one as I installed it, and after it had been in use for 6 months... It was actually lighter. Perhaps it lost some of its fibers during use, so weight was not a way to tell its filtering. The color definitely indicated it was working, as the original is white and when replaced it was more of a greyish color.

Good:
- Listed as filtering out 99% of allergen and asthma triggers.
- Accordion style filter, so when it's new in box, it doesn't take up much space. When installed, it 'unfolds' like an accordion and you just slide it into the guide rails.

Not Good:
- Price - A few years ago these were much cheaper. The price has been slowly and steadily rising over the years. Thankfully since I only replace...

Wils: Excellent replacement filter element for Aprilair whole house filter housing. MERV16 is restrictive so be certain your unit is capable of properly using this filter element. Variable speed air handlers can usually adjust to the higher flow restriction - single speed blowers usually do not adjust. Check with your manufacturer before installing MERV16 filters.

Care: These are great filters - take almost all allergens out of the air - well worth the $.
They arrive on time as well.

Phil in Magnolia: Aprilaire offers four filter versions for my particular home HVAC system. I have now purchased and am in the process of using (for comparison) three of the four styles available (the two 213 rated versions, and the 216), two ordered from Amazon (the 213CBN and 216). (My own home had the model 210 originally installed. My HVAC service company installed the 213 model when service was most recently performed, and I have now decided to upgrade to the 213CBN and 216 models and have purchased them from Amazon).

As stated above my personal choice is to use either the 213CBN, or the 216 version. The 216 has the ability to remove significantly more particles of all sizes down to 0.3 μm. The 213CBN includes activated carbon filter material for better removal of odors and VOCs. Both are quite a bit more expensive than either the 210 or 213, and have potentially shorter life (6 mo vs 12 mo). I feel that the added cost is well worthwhile - my home requires only one of these filters, and if I have to replace them somewhat more frequently in order to ensure the best possible filtration for air in my home, I consider that to be money well spent.

The key difference between these...
