Your home should serve as your sanctuary, starting with the air you breathe. Filtrete's Allergen, Bacteria & Virus Air Filters play a crucial role in capturing unwanted particles from your household air, contributing to a cleaner and fresher home environment. By proactively capturing dust, bacteria, viruses, and allergens, these high-performance filters help improve the air quality in your living space.

The Filtrete 1500 MPR Ultra allergen reduction filter not only significantly enhances the air quality in your home, but it also keeps your air conditioning and heating systems running efficiently, ultimately saving you on utilities and maintenance costs. This electrostatic filter attracts and captures airborne dust, pollen, dust-mite debris, lint, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, smog, bacteria, and particles that can carry viruses. With each pass through the specially pleated filter, the air in your living area improves, creating a healthier home environment. This high-performance filter outshines comparable non-electrostatic fiberglass and washable, reusable one-inch filters.

At a glance, the Filtrete 1500 MPR Ultra Allergen Reduction Filter features an electrostatic design that attracts and captures a wide range of air pollutants, including dust, pollen, dust-mite debris, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, smog, bacteria, and virus-carrying particles. By cleaning the air with each pass through the filter, it improves the overall air quality in your home. Furthermore, the filter's efficient performance helps keep your furnace or air conditioner running optimally, outperforming comparable fiberglass and washable/reusable filters.

The 3M Ultra allergen reduction filter's electrostatic design, with both positively and negatively charged fibers, acts like tiny magnets to attract and capture air-polluting contaminants. Since particles in the air are either positively or negatively charged, they are attracted to and trapped by the filter, preventing them from circulating in your living space.

Electrostatic filters, including the 3M Ultra allergen reduction filter, demonstrate superior performance compared to non-electrostatic fiberglass and washable/reusable filters. They are more effective in capturing the small, allergy-aggravating microparticles that the non-electrostatic filters often miss.

With indoor air often two to five times more polluted than outdoor air, the 3M Ultra allergen reduction filter can make a significant difference in maintaining a healthier home environment by continuously cleaning the air as it passes through the filter. The filter's 1500 Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR) enables it to capture a wide range of large and small particles, including household dust, pollen, dust-mite debris, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, smog, bacteria, and other allergens. This high-performance filter meets the indoor air quality guidelines set by the American Lung Association of the Upper Midwest Health House Program.

In addition to improving air quality, this high-performance allergen-reduction filter also keeps your heating and air conditioning equipment running efficiently by removing dirt and reducing strain on the motor. It is recommended to change the filter every three months, although the effectiveness and lifespan of the filter can vary depending on the individual conditions in your home.

Filtrete filters have been a leader in residential air filtration for nearly 25 years, delivering cleaner air to millions of homes. Developed by 3M engineers, the Filtrete filter media is electrostatically charged to act like tiny magnets, attracting and capturing microscopic particles from the air as it passes through. Today, a dedicated technical team continues to innovate filtration solutions for around the home, including air cleaning filters, room air purifiers, and water filtration products.
