Fram fresh breeze. It’s cheap and works fine. Change it once a year with the air filter.

I bought a hepa filter from oriellys, worst filter ever.
No air flow at all, very weak air flow.
Switched back to cheaper filter and a/c blows cold now.
+1, motorcraft or just one of those cheap ones, went one time all they had was the expensive hepa, ac had no flow, ripped it out and tossed it, Replaced with a cheap(can’t remember which brand) and got max ac again. You can spend the money on motorcraft but it’s just the cabin I’d do a cheapy and just toss it and replace it before every summer

Careful with the HEPA filters, I purchased one and ended up not using it. Read the reviews, they can significantly reduce airflow.


.
I agree with you. HEPA, being high efficiency filter will have 15-20% drop in pressure. I wouldn't use it unless you or family me members have sever allergies. Instead the advanced PUREFLOW blue filter works like a charm with optimal air flow. The air blasts in my truck and all the must smell gone. Especially when I added their cabin fir air freshener. it snaps right onto the filter. It diffuses a subtle crisp scent . I had for 3 months and it is still going .. check it out https://pureflowair.com/collections/air-freshener

The higher the merv level the smaller the particulates it filters which reduced air flow. If you have a system which is designed to work with merv filter, they have much much larger filtration areas to make up for the reduced flow. There a a great deal of large venues which were forced to install merv filters which filter Covid but we’re never designed for it. Their has been premature failure on u it’s due the strain the filters are putting on the systems.

I run the pure flow as well, expensive but seems to do a great job.

I want to know....

..Stock filter vs expensive filter, last longer/better quality/better airflow? I am guessing maybe a half HP
