The high-performance split model is quick and easy to apply and captures 83% of microparticles in 1 hour.

If you want to ensure a more protected and pollutant-free environment, 3M’s new air conditioning filter is something to keep an eye on. Compatible with high-performance splits, it is quick and easy to install and, according to the manufacturer, may be able to capture up to 83% of microparticles in 1 hour.

In addition, electrostatic technology ensures a high retention rate of microparticles without affecting the airflow or performance of the device. In just a few minutes, the installation is complete and your environment is protected.

Pollution data are alarming

Air pollution is responsible for 1 in 5 deaths caused by cardiovascular and lung diseases. According to a study by The Lancet Commission on Pollution and Health Study, only in Australia, there are more than 60 thousand victims per year as a result of this problem.

What few people know is that indoor air can be up to five times worse than outdoor air. To make matters worse, people spend up to 90% of their time in these environments, which increases the time of exposure to unsuitable conditions.

Constant cleaning of the environment does not solve the problem as a whole. About 99% of the particles we breathe are invisible to the naked eye. Unlike those larger particles, which come out when cleaning, these smaller ones remain suspended in the air. Air-conditioned environments tend to have more risks, as there is less time for opening doors and windows, which means that the air does not renew itself with the necessary constancy.

New 3M air conditioning filter

Compatible with several split models, 3M’s new air conditioning filter features a 3-in-1 technology that attracts particles, captures microparticles and releases cleaner air.

To do this, just follow the filter change guidelines, something that should happen every one or three months of use. Everything will depend on the frequency of use of the air conditioner and the conditions of the environment in which it is located. The main indication that it is necessary to change an air conditioning filter is its colour.

It is also worth remembering that, according to Law 13,589/2018, every public and the private building must carry out periodic maintenance on air conditioning units, under penalty of fine. Therefore, this is all the more reason for you to worry about the health of your employees and keep your company within what the legislation recommends.

How to Use the 3M Air Conditioning Filter

As we’ve already mentioned, installing 3M’s new air conditioning filter can be done in a matter of minutes. The process is simple and fast and can be done by anyone with minimal knowledge of handling equipment like this. Check out the installation step by step:

Open the split air conditioner cover
Remove and clean with alcohol the screen located on the front of the air conditioner
With double-sided tape located on top, centre the 3M filter in a vertical position on the screen, leaving equal spaces on the sides to optimize airflow. The filter must never cover the entire plastic screen.
Remove the protective tape from the double-sided tape located on the back of the filter. Fold the top of the filter and fix it to the back of the screen.
Fold the bottom of the filter on the back of the screen and install the screen with the 3M filter back into the air conditioner. Use the extra double-sided tape available in the package if the filter is not enough to cover the entire screen and be folded over on the back.

That simple!
