HVAC Furnace Filters Calgary

An air filter is an important component within your HVAC system.

Call Us

A filter with a low Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (also known as MERV) can capture some of your home’s airborne particulates including:

  • dust
  • pollen
  • animal dander
  • allergen particles
  • …and more

Besides creating improved indoor air quality an air filter will also help protect your HVAC equipment by minimizing dust and particulates building up on fan motors as well as heating and cooling coils.

Routinely replacing the air filter as directed by the manufacturer’s guidelines can protect your HVAC equipment and can maintain your equipment’s maximum efficiency. A clogged air filter can increase your HVAC equipment energy consumption.

I was debating between a 4* and 5* review. There was an initial issue with the appointment but I have to admit STAT pulled all stops when they realized their mistake and did right by the customer. I was especially impressed with the service tech (Delaine N.); the problem was intermittent and difficult to pin down. I do have a basic understanding of electrical wiring and Delaine went through his analysis with me and ensure I clearly knew what he was doing and why. He was finally able to pinpoint the problem after much back and forth analysis and testing and I now have a much better understanding of my HVAC system.5 stars - solid.

Called for an emergency furnace repair for one of my rental properties after hours and the technician was quick and honest. After reviewing my options I decided to go with a new high efficiency furnace. The installation team was friendly and did a fantastic job on the installation. The office and comfort advisor walked me through the whole process very professionally and even the owner called to follow up with me. I will definitely recommend Stat to all of my families and friends.

Engaged company to install which was executed timely and they also discovered that my Furnace has been licking fluid. They also got my furnace fixed at the cheapest price I could get from many other competing companies.

Daniel was an exceptional technician. He was extremely industrious and was persistent to find a solution to the problem. I was very impressed with his workmanship. He came at a very late hour and delved into the problem and solved it. He deserves a very high accolade. Thank you Daniel for bringing warmth back to my home!

Stat is an excellent company do business with, from their free quoting, explanations on installation practices and reasonable pricing; my air-conditioning was up and running in less than 2 weeks.I also have to mention their back end support with Sean made it an easy transaction and was really impressed with the install. These guys know what they're doing and would recommend them to anyone needing heating and cooling systems.

We bought a house in Cochrane, AB and we were looking for a good company to provide us with a good air conditioner.It was very easy to book an appointment with the owner. Sean went to inspect the house and gave us a very reasonable price. They were able to install the A/C the same week and we were very satisfied with the quality of the equipment, the installation and the customer service. I recommend this company.

Very pleased with Sean and his crew. Price, promptness, and reliability of service were all fantastic. After their first visit, other issues arose, unrelated to the first problem with my furnace. Long story short, Sean came by for an additional two hours tackling a difficult problem, and when he left we were back up and running. Best part was Sean's willingness to be more than reasonable with his pricing. The customer service was fantastic in all respects, and I would definitely recommend Stat Climate Control!

Understanding MERV Rating

The MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) is the value which determines the filtration ability of air filters installed in your HVAC system. The higher the MERV number, the better the filter may be at trapping particulates. This means that fewer particles and airborne contaminants can pass through a high MERV filter to your HVAC equipment.

If the MERV rating if higher, there is a better chance of trapping bacteria, some spores, a significant fraction of cat and dog allergens, and a small portion of dust mite allergens. The EPA suggests that filters with a MERV rating between 7 and 13 can be as nearly as effective as true HEPA filters.

IMPORTANT: Not all HVAC systems have enough fan or motor capacity to accommodate higher efficiency filters.

Talk to us about your filter type before purchasing higher MERV filters. We can also install HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Arrestance) filters in your home for improved air quality.

When to Change Your Filter

When it comes to changing the filter in your HVAC system there really isn’t one answer for all. Typically a Merv filter should be replaced every four months to a year. If your furnace uses an older, basic fibreglass filter it should be changed as frequently as every 1 to 2 months.

Change More Often

The filter should be changed more often if your home has the following:

  • Pets that shed fur
  • If there are individuals who smoke in the house
  • You notice an excessive buildup of dust in your home or on the HVAC filter
  • You open windows in your home when the weather allows
  • If your furnace fan is frequently running

Filter Upgrades

If you have a family member who suffers from allergies or asthma you may consider upgrading to an antimicrobial or high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter which are specially treated to trap microorganisms, including bacteria, mildew, fungus, mold, yeast, and algae.

Proper Disposal of Filters

Used furnace filters should be bagged and placed in your black cart as garbage.
