When it comes to using the many kinds of air filters I have tried almost every kind there is available.
I’ve used HEPA filters, UV light filters, washable air filters and disposable air filters.
Frankly, I still like disposable air filters over all of them, with the exception maybe being with a HEPA filter and that’s just because HEPA filters are excellent and give you good indoor air conditions. I don’t like UV light filters because you always must ensure your bulb hasn’t burned out, otherwise, it’s going to be completely ineffective. I’m not a fan of washable air filters because they’re good and function well. But, I don’t enjoy going through the hassle of having to disinfect my air filters, or even just vacuum them out. I shall admit this is just me being somewhat lazy, but I would rather buy a cheaper disposable air filter that’s going to cost me less money, and that is already ready to go, in the room without having to clean it. The disposable air filters come pre packaged and ready. AlI I have to do is open them up, add them in there and my heating and A/C method is taken care of. It requires minimal effort on my part and that is how I like it. The only exception as I said before would be the HEPA filters and that is because HEPA filters are top notch. If you have bad indoor air conditions they are the best solution in my opinion. However I still like disposable air filters overall just because they are cheaper than HEPA filters. But, if I do have poor indoor air conditions then I will turn to a HEPA filter.
