There are so many different kinds of air filters

There are so many different kinds of air filters out there that I hardly ever know what kind I should get whenever I need a new one.

I personally just think that it’s stupid that there are so many different kinds of air filters out there on the market today.

I feel like we could go back in time and maybe find one good air filter that would be a universal one and just improve that one and sell it instead. Can you imagine what a different sort of world this would be if there was just one sort of air filter out there on the market and it did a really great job for everyone? What if we had one that would fit every single type of furnace and air conditioning system that there is? By this point in history, we could have an air filter that would filter out all of the dust, dirt, and toxins that would ever be a threat to any home’s or business’s indoor air quality. We could all be breathing really great clean air if we had put all of our efforts into improving a single universal air filter instead of coming up with all kinds of different ones for every single kind of heating and cooling system that exists. It’s just silly if you ask me. And every time I go into one of the local home improvement stores around here to purchase an air filter for my own HVAC system, it just makes me mad all over again. Not only is it hard for me to find the type that fits my HVAC system, but the air filters take up so much space in the home improvement store! If there was only one kind, this wouldn’t be any issue at all.
