What's the difference between Tyvek and HEPA?
    #4681396 - 09/19/05 10:22 AM (18 years, 6 months ago)

Can the two be used interchangably? Is one more effective than the other? I've never actually handled a HEPA filter before, can one screw a jar lid over one as is done when employing Tyvek in a tek that involves jars?

I need this, right?

no, a hepa (High Efficiency Particulate Air filter) will not work like that. a jar would have to be huge for that to work. its not like the paper-like tyvek.

You can't cut the HEPA material to a smaller size (like to the size of a piece of Tyvek) to fit the jar?
