No Arrows!
on April 6, 2019
Posted by: Rickradio
from Martin, Tennessee
Gender:Male
When I got home and prepared to replace the older filter, the instructions stated to put the filter in the grill, paying attention to the arrows, so that the air flow would be correct. Only one problem - THERE ARE NO ARROWS...ANYWHERE! Not on the packaging, not on the filter, on the sides or inside. So, I put it in the same way as the previous filter and I hope it's correct. But then again, how would I know?

I've been using Filtrete filters for several years. They work better than any other brand. Keeps my chore of dusting down to a minimum.

TOO much air resistance.
on January 27, 2019

Just replaced the Model 1085 filter with the basic. The basic didn't allow enough air flow to heat the house and trapped too much in the plenum. At first I thought the arrow was backwards with the air pulling the fabric away from the frame. The next week a cold snap came and the furnace ran a lot. the furnace would trip on over temperature before heating the house. After 2 days of resetting the furnace I went back to the 1085.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good Value - Too much Cardboard
on August 23, 2023
Posted by: Keith R
I just picked up an order of 12 filters: 12" X 36" Basic MERV 5.
I have not used them yet - but, when I do I'll write another review.
The picture on the retailer's website showed the Filtrete filters with no cardboard covering the front.
What I picked up, had lots of cardboard covering up the front. You would have to think that if 30% of the front of the filter is covered with cardboard that would not be a good thing.

I'll try to add a photo - but that function is greyed out. Maybe it will let me add a photo after I click on the "Complete" button?

Flimsy new design
on February 18, 2023
Posted by: LamontPhotos
I have been using filtrate filters for years. The new design is getting sucked in to my energy efficient furnace. Does not happen in the regular furnace. There is not enough support for the filter. They need to go back to the old design. I will have to look into a different brand

Good Filter
on April 6, 2020

My husband came home with this air filter. I changed it out and watched it over the last month. It works good. A little heavy in thickness so not sure how well it filters through but it does the job.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Restricted Air Flow
on December 30, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Why is there so much cardboard restricting the airflow? I remove all crisscrossed cardboard from the middle of both sides and they work fine with better airflow.
I would recommend this to a friend!
