a electrostatic filter simply presents the opposits charge to the air passing through and much the same as a magnet the charged particles are attracted and attached themselves to the opposite charged parts of the filter media.
Therefore the name, Electrostatic.

Something else, you might be interested in is Ultra Violet Light Air Treatment within your duct work system. It's power consumption is not hardly mentionable , its safety and reliability and effectiveness are awesome. Its, life expectansy is measure in years and years and its super quiet. It kills an incredible amount of bacterial, mold, virus, and such as this in a single pass of air and therefore eliminates much odor and health safety factors. You must not look directly at U.V. light though, so it must be inside your system out of sight.

How and why do i use a 2 way spliter to wire up my new electric furnace?
how and whydo iuse one wire to run my new electric furnace that says to use a spliter to attach to the 2 circuit brakers on the furnace. I cannot get it to work properly when I do
What is the voltage required for an electrostatic precipitator?
There is a lot of variation in the applied DC voltages that operate an electrostatic precipitator (ESP). Some work on a few thousand volts (a few kV), while big industrial units might run on upwards of 100,000 volts (100 kV).
Full form of ESD?
electrostatic sensitive device
What does esd stand for?
It stands for electrostatic detonation ANSWER: Eelectrostatic static discharge. What it is? It is a potential of energy ready to be discharged if it find a path. Otherwise it sits there until it does. The source can easily be found on cellophane if ripped suddenly or walking on a dry carpet or sliding on your car seat
Can a 100 breaker box handle a 15 kw furnace?
The equation for amperage is I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. The amperage for the furnace would be, Amps = 15000/240 = 62.5 amps. So to answer the question, yes a 100 amp breaker with a #4 copper conductor will be sufficient to operate a 15 kW furnace. A 70 amp breaker will work but it is cutting the edge a bit too fine as you don't need the furnace to trip off during the winter months (northern hemisphere) if you are away from your home for an extended period of time.
What is the best electronic air filter on the market?
The best electronic air filter on the market is Lifetime electrostatic furnace filter. You can read review at www.consumersearch.com/air-purifiers and www.lifetimeelectrostaticfilter.com
Where is the filter located on a central air conditioner?
the filter on a central unit is the same as the furnace filter usually located in duct work directly beside furnace
Are new ac filters or furnace filters restricting the air flow in older systems?
If you have been using a pleated filter for a long time, 2-8 years plus, with no problem, then you are keeping your coil clean so stay with a pleated filter with the same Merv rating. If you have a metal or plastic electrostatic filter that you are washing, then you should change it to a pleated filter. You can never get the electrostatic filter clean enough and they restrict your air flow when they get dirty which will cause your electric bill to increase.
Where is air filter located on central ac?
it's the same as the furnace filter. the air conditioner runs through the furnace to push he cold air. change your furnace filter and you are changing the air filter on the air conditioner
Basket filter furnace?
I furnace was installed when the house was built in the 60's. The furnace has a wire basket, which I have to by the filter, cut to size and replace. My question can I use a regular air filtr for my furnace.
Furnace Air Filter?
form_title= Furnace Air Filter form_header= Stay warm and replace you air filter! What is the brand of your furnace?* = _ Has your furnace been serviced recently?* = () Yes () No () Not Sure How many filters do you need?* = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, More than 10}
What furnace maintenance can I do myself?
You can check the air filter every 3-4 weeks. A dirty filter can cause your furnace to overheat. Learn how to clean your furnace, dirt is the number one cause for furnace malfunctioning.
Do all furnace owners need to buy furnace air filters?
That will depend entirely upon the type of furnace you have. There are filter less furnaces, so if you have one, you won't need filters. Otherwise, if your furnace requires a filter, you will need to purchase filters and replace them regularly. If you have the owners manual, that will tell you if the furnace needs a filter.
How often should you change a spun glass furnace filter?
You should change a furnace filter every 2-4 months.
How important is it to have a furnace filter?
A furnace filter should be used and should be changed about every three months. It is important to have one because they filter out dirt and dust which otherwise clog up the furnace and stop it working as well as it should.
On a basket furnace filter does the filter go on the outside or inside?
I have this same type of sill furnace and the filters goes on the inside closest to the blower.
Does setting the central ac fan to on to clean the air?
Yes it does, providing there is an air filter in place. You will also even out the temperatures in different parts of the home. This is where you can do a better job of cleaning the air and removing dust and particulate by choosing a higher efficiency filter. A "pleated" filter will increase the removal of particulate without adding increased restriction to the furnace/ ac system. Many people make the mistake however, of installing an electrostatic/ washable filter of the same physical size as the original filter they removed. The problem they create is that while the electrostatic filter is more efficient in that some will filter out mold spores and cigarette smoke, etc, they increase the temperature rise in the case of a furnace, or the temp. drop in the case of an a/c system. In the case of a furnace this will increase the risk of errant safety limit trips and furnace operation above the temperature rise specified by the manufacturer. In the case of a/c systems, the increased restriction may cause icing of the a/c coil. The furnace nameplate should be checked for the listed temperature rise. Measure the temperature of the air entering the unit and leaving the unit. After 10-15 minutes of operation the calculated "temperature rise" should fall within the range listed on the rating plate. If going to an electrostatic filter, have a good HVAC contractor install a filter rack diagonally in the return air. This allows you to install a larger surface area filter that will reduce the static pressure drop of the filter in the system. One option I have installed for many customers is called a "filter enhancer". It acts as the electrostatic filter does, by charging the air passing over the installed probe with electricity. The charged particles are then caught by the pleated filter. This type of setup costs lots less than electronic air filters and has far less in the way of maintenance issues. It works on the principle of electropheresis.(I may have not spelled it right) The enhancer I install is the airscreen 6000 manufatured by Cimatec. Good luck! lc
