What is the MERV Rating for this product?
1353183
You would have to ask the manufacturer of the filters for that info.....I'm just a consumer :)
592
The 210 has a MERV rating of 210 and the 213 has a MERV rating of 213. The higher the rating the better it will filter small particles.

I do not know the rating. There is nothing printed on it anywhere that gives that info. Sorry.

I could not find that type rating on the info data. We bought it based on some our friends recommendations.We have found it to be satisfactory if one follows the instructions provided.

Merv 1900. This is not listed on the packaging, but is listed on Amazon under technical details.

I'm not sure what it is rated, but it's def a light action rod. I love mine, perfect to pack into a bag and take anywhere there are fish!

Someone must know the rating, but that info is not here on Amazon's page or on the product label photos. 3M's own site doesn't even show this "Select Healthy Living" model name or its MERV rating. Not good when makers and sellers conceal information, and very untypical of 3M.

It is difficult to see, but on the top left edge of the picture of the product you can see it says MERV 12. It is upside down, but printed there.

Dear Mr. Stine It is rather odd that the company could not give you a rating. It sounds like ignorance or being in a state of ineptness. They should not expect big sales if they cannot define their product.

Dave, Don't know anything about "MERV levels" but the filter that came with my PM1200 works fine for me. I have to remove the standard filter weekly and "beat" out the dust but it is still working after 2 years.

Im not sure what its rated but at 185 it was good for about a month and then the base split like crazy and the shaft went completely through it. DO NOT BUY IT!!!!

Dear D. Lester:No, no MERV rating anywhere on the item nor on the packaging/box.Said filter is a basic, fiberglass-type of filter.BTW, I purchased one case of these filters, there was suppose to be 12 in the case (case count of 12), but the box, undamaged and unopened, only had 11 filters in it.Good luck.Sincerely,Bill Bochynski626-524-4392

Yes and No.The higher the Merv rating, the more strain you will put on your furnace/blower. The more denser (Higher Merv rating) the filter, the more your blower motor will have to work. Of course, you will pull out more particles/dust/pollen etc out of the air, with a higher Merv rating. I have a variable speed blower motor/fan, so my Hvac technician can adjust my blower/fan speed. For my house, approx. 1600 sq ft, I found the Filtrate 1000 (Approx Merv rating of 11) to be ideal, with my two cats. I also buy charcoal pre filters here on Amazon and use them with my filter. They also tend to pick up a lot of stuff out of the air. I then vacume both the filter and pre filter (with a Hepa vacume cleaner) at least twice a month. I then change my furnace filter every 4 to 6 weeks-even though the filters would be good for at least 90 days. This may be considered excessive but my Hvac tech states my coils are always clean and the house is cool/warm when I want it. Next time your Hvac tech is at your house and servicing your system, ask him/her what they recommend.

Fred I wish I could help you. I have had my kit for 12 months now , just replaced the filter after 12 months. It was dirty but not bad. We have 2 cats and 2800 sq. feet of living space, a 22 year old standard furnace 80% eff. I am happy with the up grade. Can't really comment on Merv and strain on furnace.

The box and the filter have MERV 10 printed on them, so I assume it's MERV 10.

I always have and it's never seemed to be a problem. You can always check with the folks at mercola.com however if you want to confirm it.
