Air Filters
There are several pollutants that are found in homes such as spores, dust, mould, viruses, bacteria and pollen. All of these are harmful to health and can cause allergies that affect the respiratory tract. As shown in the below image, depending on the size of the pollutant it will reach different levels inside the lungs. The smaller a pollutant is, the more dangerous it will be.

The best way to improve indoor air quality is to ventilate our homes so that the air gets renewed. However, it is not only a matter of renewing the air, but the new air entering into the home has to be clean. Using ventilation systems with incorporated filters, is key to success in indoor air quality. The benefits of breathing clean air range from more productivity to improving sleep. Good indoor air quality means greater comfort in your home.
envirovent filters are synonymous for sustainability, hygiene and energy efficiency. Whether dust, spores or pollen, we have created optimal and enhanced filters to meet the highest demands and to ensure that indoor air quality is prioritised.
Thanks to the surface area of the filter, this reduces the pressure drops and increases the life expectancy of the filter. As a result, the fans need lower speed and the power consumption as well as radiated noise are reduced.
Filters have many benefits to both the health and comfort of the occupant, but also to maintaining the life of the ventilation product. This includes:
- Increased life expectancy: Low frequency filter replacement; end user saves money.
- Low consumption: Energy efficiency; end user saves money.
Installing a filter without being aware of grades and the suitability for the ventilation product can result in increased power consumption and noise. This may not provide the required reduction in pollutants and therefore is not advised. The filters used in envirovent products have been sized and chosen with the unit in mind, and therefore these are warranted with the product, however should alternatives be installed this will invalidate the warranty. If there is any doubt or further advice is required then please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Deciding which filter type is needed has never been so easy. We have marked our filters under three categories so that the end user is able to choose the filter that best fits the requirements according to each particular case. Whether protection against pollen, fine particles or bacteria is needed, there is an EnviroVent filter to cover your needs. In each filter we provide detailed information about its efficiency versus the particle size.
