24x12x12 filter 99.95%
    #21864290 - 06/27/15 01:03 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

The filter:  http://www.furnacefilterwarehouse.com/Glasfloss_MAGNA_24_x_12_x_12_HEPA_99_95_p/magpb2412b5ax.htm

I'm looking to buy a HEPA filter for the flowhood I'm going to build. I came across this one^ and it's probably the best I've seen for the money but... a) It doesn't actually say "HEPA" and b) it's rated for 99.95% efficiency. Now I'm fine with that level of efficiency but that particular number caught me as odd because most HEPAs I've been looking at either rate at 99.99 or 99.97.

So any words of wisdom from those who have already assembled their flow hoods?

99% 99.95% etc are meaningless if it doesn't say the particle size that it gets that efficiency at

:thumbup:

Ok and for particle size I'm looking for .3m? Do you have any specific product suggestions?

I ended up ordering that one. I think I paid like 20-30 more then I needed too, but the convenience of getting it on amazon was worth it.
