When it comes to air filters, the size is important. The best way to measure the size of your air filter is to take out the measuring tape and measure it directly. Most air filters have a MERV rating between 1 and 20, with MERV 1 filters only capable of removing larger debris and MERV 20 capable of filtering microscopic particles such as viruses and bacteria from the air. Air filters can be changed from behind the intake grilles (often called air filters or AC filters) or in the oven box of the central air unit (often referred to as “oven filters”).
Replacing the air filter is as simple as finding the right size, opening the intake vent, and fitting the new air filter neatly into its slot. However, if you have a lot of people in the house, pets, or have particularly dusty or dirty air (smoking or under construction), it is recommended that you replace the air filters in a shorter interval, between 30 and 60 days. But those are rare circumstances, and the decision to pay more for a better filter or not mostly comes down to whether cleaner air is a priority for you. If you can't find what you need online, or if you prefer to buy a new filter in a store right away, Honeywell's FPR 9 filters and Filtrete's MPR 1500 filters are similar and widely available in retail stores.
