PuroAir Debuts its HVAC Mega Filter with MERV 13 and CarbonTech(TM) for Residential and Commercial HVAC Systems

Three-layer filtration system with activated carbon targets allergens, smoke, and VOCs; lasts up to 3x longer than traditional fiberglass filters

PHOENIX, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 /PuroAir, a leader in advanced home air purification, today announced the PuroAir HVAC Mega Filter, a high-performance replacement HVAC furnace and air conditioner filter engineered for residential and commercial HVAC systems.

Featuring a patent pending three-layer filtration design: a pre-filter layer, a MERV 13 fine-particle layer, and PuroAir proprietary CarbonTech™ activated carbon layer, the PuroAir HVAC Mega Filter captures particles up to 200x smaller than a human hair, combats household odors and smoke, and helps remove VOCs (volatile organic compounds), allergens, and pet dander while maintaining smooth airflow for optimal system performance.

A MERV rating (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) measures how well a filter can remove particles from the air. The EPA recommends using a HVAC filter with a MERV rating of at least 13, or as high a rating as a system fan and filter slot can accommodate. The American Lung Association also recommends using filters with a high MERV rating, preferably 13 or above.

Standard fiberglass filters can remove particles, but not odors or VOCs. Exposure to VOCs can cause a range of health issues, from short-term irritation (like headaches, eye and throat irritation) to more serious respiratory problems. The activated carbon in PuroAir 's CarbonTech™ layer combats both odors and VOCs.

"Our mission is simple: make cleaner, healthier air effortless," said Robby Choueiri, Co-Founder and CEO of PuroAir. "The HVAC Mega Filter brings PuroAir 's proven filtration performance to the heart of your home 's air system, so families get the benefits with an easy, drop-in upgrade."

Key benefits of the PuroAir MERV 13 HVAC Mega Filter:

Allergen relief: reduces dust, pollen, and pet dander
Odor elimination: tackles smoke, cooking smells, and pet odors
Efficient operation: maintains smooth airflow to support HVAC performance
Long-lasting: lasts up to 3x longer than traditional fiberglass filters

Solving HVAC 's Airflow Problem
The PuroAir HVAC Mega Filter solves a problem that has long challenged the industry: maintaining efficient airflow in higher grade filters. The Mega Filter 's three-stage design, featuring MERV 13 and CarbonTech™, delivers high-level filtration with optimal airflow, competitive to lower-grade MERV filters. This performance has not been available in the market until now.

How PuroAir 's 3-layer filtration system with CarbonTech™ works:
PuroAir 's 3-layer filtration system includes a pre-filter layer, which traps larger debris like dust and hair. The MERV 13 layer filters fine particles such as pollen, smoke, and common allergens. PuroAir 's proprietary CarbonTech™ layer, a blend of activated carbon, is engineered to provide filtration of odors, gases, and VOCs for fresher, cleaner air.

Sizes and compatibility:
The PuroAir HVAC Mega Filter fits standard residential and commercial HVAC systems and is available in popular sizes: 20x25x1, 20x20x1, 16x25x1, and 16x20x1. Installation takes minutes: turn off the HVAC system, remove the old filter, insert the new filter with arrows pointing in the airflow direction, replace the cover, and power the system back on.

The PuroAir HVAC Mega Filter is available now at https://getpuroair.com and https://getpuroair.com/products/hvac-mega-filter. Customers can also enroll in PuroAir 's HVAC Mega Filter subscription service for automatic replacements, typically every 3 months, depending on use and air quality. According to Energy Star, furnace filters should be checked once a month, especially during winter and summer, and should be changed at least once every 3 months.

For a complete, whole-home air-cleaning solution, combine the PuroAir HVAC Mega Filter with PuroAir 's award-winning air purifiers (including the PuroAir 240 and the PuroAir 400). Together, they tackle particles, allergens, odors, and pollutants from room to room and through a home 's central air conditioning and furnace system.

Notes and testing: Performance references are based on ASHRAE MERV filter performance standards and independent testing conducted in an ISO 17025 laboratory. "200x smaller than a human hair" is an illustrative comparison; actual capture efficiency varies by particle size and operating conditions. Longevity claims versus standard fiberglass filters; results may vary based on environment, system, and usage. Replacement interval typically every 3 months.
