One of the best filters we sell at RememberTheFilter.com is the Flanders Precisionaire Pre Pleat 40 LPD. This filter has undergone some changes that have made it one of the best MERV 8 filters in the industry. Part numbers for the Pre Pleat 40 have remained unchanged but the filter does have a new and improved look to it. The Pre Pleat 4o LPD filters can be used in both residential and commercial systems. Just because the filters look the same doesn't mean they perfom the same, there is a big differnce between the Flanders Pre Pleat 4o LPD filters and the cheaper filters out in the marketplace. A good filter will save you money over the long run in both utility usage and costly repair bills due to cheap pleated filters that are made below standards but may share the same MERV rating.

The Flanders Pre Pleat 40 LPD is a standard capacity pleated air filter. Since 2004 other manufactures have altered media blends to meet the LEED and market driven demand for a non-electric MERV 8 filters. This has led to pressure drop increases in their filters of 25% or more. A pressure drop increase of 25% can have a huge impact on the system and should be avoided as it can drive up utility usage and increase wear and tear on the system. Utilizing a unique new fiber technology, Flanders Precisionaire research & development team has now achieved the multiple goals of maintaining MERV 8 performance at a resistance that is 40% lower than competition. At the same time, the LPD´s (low pressure drop) dust holding capacity remains the highest in the industry. All this while operating on 100% mechanical principles.

Flanders is committed to continuously developing new and improved products to assist in an environmentally responsible, healthy, and prosperous environment.  Flanders Pre Pleat 40 LPD achieves the highest dust holding capacity and the lowest pressure drop in the industry, while maintaining a mechanical MERV 8 per ASHRAE Standard 52.2-2007.
