Say good by to dusting...not quite

1 min read
We wish, pleated filters will reduce the need for dusting but it won't eliminate it. Atmospheric dust consists of a wide variety of particulates ranging in size from 0.001 micron to a relatively large 100 microns. Because of the weight of the large particles, they will settle out on your furniture long before they reach your filter.
