About Aprilaire 213 A1 213 Replacement Air Filter for Whole Home Air Purifiers
Overall Feedback:
93% positive
81% praised for improving indoor air quality
I have noticed a significant improvement in air quality since switching to this filter. There is a decrease in dust and allergens in my house, and I have been breathing much better.
85% liked its compatibility, but 15% had issues with compatibility
I advise being cautious while purchasing furnace filters as old stock may not be compatible and may separate after a while, especially in high heat, causing them to no longer function correctly.
If I have a weak fan motor, I will notice less airflow.
92% found it easy to install and replace
Replacing/installing the filter is easy and cheaper than what the A/C tech wanted for their replacement.
The new filter is easier to install than the old one, which had 20 'fingers' that had to be put in between each pleat of the filter.
I need new filters as part of the installation.
85% liked the long-lasting filter, while 15% thought it needed frequent replacements
The filters only last for 2 months, not as long as quoted 6-12 months.
After a few months of use, the filter became detached from its frame. It was expected to last at least six months.
The filter has torn twice before it was due to be changed.
I was told by the company that installed my HVAC unit that the filter was a 'once-per-year' filter. However, during the annual check-up, they were disappointed that the filter had not been changed. The company's response was that the filter doesn't really last that long. Now, I change the filter every 6 months.
81% appreciated the quieter operation, but 19% didn't notice a difference
I have noticed a significant decrease in dust and allergens in my house since switching to the new system. I am breathing much better, indicating that the air filter is effective in reducing noise.
The filters catch a lot of contaminants, but at the expense of air circulation.
