When it comes to selecting the perfect air filter for your recreational vehicle (RV), there are a few key elements to take into account. An AC filter with a MERV 6 rating is ideal, as it can block particles up to 3 to 10 microns, which are invisible to the naked eye. It's important to note that the lifespan of the filter will depend on the areas you camp in. For example, if you camp in humid climates with less dust, you can expect more than 400 hours of use before needing to replace the filter.
However, if you camp in desert areas, you should change the filter after just 150 hours of use due to the high levels of dust in the air. Additionally, it's recommended to clean the air filter every 30 days to maximize its lifespan. When it comes to finding the right filter for your RV, it's important to know the exact dimensions of your air conditioning unit. This odor-eliminating motorhome air filter fits 14 x 7.5 inch Dometic 3104928.019 Duo-Therm AC grill sets or air conditioning units with the same filter dimensions. It also fits 16 x 4 inch sets of Coleman-Mach ducted and Ductless (ChillGrille) grills or air conditioning units with the same filter dimensions.
Additionally, this odor-eliminating filter fits Coleman-Mach 14 x 6 inch air conditioning grill sets or air conditioning units with the same air filter dimensions for motorhomes. Unlike standard RV air filters that use a thin black polypropylene filter, similar to the one found in a hair dryer, this RV air filter has 40 layers of nonwoven polyester, each sprayed with an antimicrobial adhesive to capture particulates. It is recommended to change the filters once a year for seasonal campers or every three months for those who work full time. In conclusion, choosing an AC filter with a MERV 6 rating is essential for keeping your RV's air clean and free from allergens and other particles. It's important to note that the lifespan of the filter will depend on where you camp and that it's recommended to clean the air filter every 30 days and replace it after 150-400 hours of use. With this information in mind, you can make sure your RV is equipped with the best air conditioning filter for allergies and enjoy a safe and comfortable road trip.
