What is the difference between a Merv 8 and Merv 11?
1352499
I believe it is the density of the filter and the 11 would be thicker which takes more dirt and dust out of the air. However, it may restrict air flow I was told. I chose the MERV 8 and they work great.

I understand that the 8 has slightly better air flow than the 11. Although it's possible the 11 filters out a bit more. But truly, I just use what the installer told me to use. Sorry

I had this same question, and found this link: https://strivenindustries.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200372840-MERV-vs-MPR-rating Essentially, MPR of 1500 or over is MERV 12.

I'm not sure if they make the two differently I never had the aus 8, but the San Mai version has held up really well hasn't gotten loose or anything and iv put it through some beatings

I ordered the Merv11 and it was the correct size and labeled Merv11 on the filter.

8 or 9" would be as big as you will want to go. The 11" will fit but it will take longer.

Hi Carol, I'm certainly not a pro. but "media" means the middle. In this case in I believe in Quality. So if you order "replacement media" you are getting equal to what you have already. Of course you can improve air quality by up grading the "Merv". This means it will filter more unwanted particles, which I did my last order and notice a huge difference. Hope this helps

The main (and almost only) difference that I can find is their frequency responses: 140-20k for the Minx 10 and 120-20k for the Minx 11.

In general no. In order to use a Merv 12 to replace a Merv 11, you need to know if you system can handle the extra pressure drop caused by the higher efficiency Merv 12. My heat pump/ ventilation system cannot support the pressure drop of a Merv 12. Compressors operated above design limit will die sooner than normal. Consult with an above average HVAC company.

Your Model number is for the cabinet. All you need to know is that the filter it takes is is a 20x25x5!After that, you need to chose a MERV rating. Most people can get by just fine with a MERV 10. But if you get a MERV 16 it will help with allergies and it will catch more and even smaller particles

The site you are purchasing from should specify the model you will be getting. MMF07 is their latest model and has 11 speeds which I knew I would prefer. Check the web site medimassager.com for more information. EBay is also a good place to view different models at varying prices. Good luck.

MERV rating is a fabricated numbering system created by Filtrete. The higher the number the more particles it can remove from the air. This numbering system, however, is not used by any other filter manufacturing company and therefor is biased.

I don't think there is any difference there. But my suggestin don't buy either. Better buy 798H secura. It's way better plus it's self cleaning. I got 997MC and I am tired of cleaning Regret regret and regret that I got it.

The specs are about the same, but the RTR-EV 1200 is a newer model and has only been on the market for a couple of years. Also, they are ported differently.

Only one. I bought here because I had difficulty finding the MERV 8. The MERV 12 is too restrictive for my heat pumps which hurts my efficiency.
