What many people do not realize is that by upgrading your furnace filter you can significantly improve the air quality inside your home in a truly inexpensive way. The average person is breathing in about 32,000 pints worth of air in a single day. Can you imagine how many particles of dust can be found in these 32,000 pints? The truth is, there are around 1,120,000,000 dust particles, most of which that are 3 microns or smaller, floating around in the air that we are breathing on a daily basis.
According to studies by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air can be as much as two to five times more polluted than the air outdoors. Indoor air quality is affected by a number of things. Your primary defense against problems with air quality is your air conditioning filter and your furnace filter.

The question has been asked forever. And the answer has actually evolved over time. There was a time when different manufacturers of HVAC equipment produced varying degrees of product quality. With the advent of programs that have been put into place by major manufactures in recent years to concentrate on product quality, such as ISO 9000 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9000, the quality gap that once existed has narrowed. Now, the fear of lower quality is not as significant of a concern as in days past. The biggest differences in HVAC equipment today is that of proprietary technologies that each manufacturer offers.
