1 Year Trial Run -- Failed Nov 02, 2011
By Dr. Michael G. Mathews
"CCIE, CISSP, CISM, RHCE"
We purchased eight of these in the 2" thickness with the hard metal frame for our new home that we built and moved into December 2010. We have four HVAC units in the house with 1" or 4" openings for filters to accommodate both sizes of potential filter units. All four HVAC systems were installed just before we moved in and these were the first filters installed. One year later, when we're having our annual heating system checkup, the tech tells us that these units and blowers have a ton of dust in them and if he didn't know any better, he would swear they had been in service at least 4 years. The bad news is that these filters fit poorly, wiggle around in the opening, and don't appear to stop much of anything. On the good news side, they are extremely labor intensive requiring monthly cleaning that is non-trivial and extended drying times, heavy to move around (8 of them in and out of the attic monthly), expensive, and left our $50K investment in HVAC for our new home completely unprotected. Great job Boair. These should be featured on the "As Seen on TV" late night TV infomercials. They're about that calibre.
We would recommend saying as far away from these filters as you possibly can. They're a complete waste of good money.

Terrible Oct 15, 2011
By Rob NY After reading a lot of reviews and thinking this would be the perfect solution to costly and environmentally unfriendly disposable filters, we got this for our HVAC system.
We ran our system with this filter for almost 4 months throughout the summer, with the AC running normally throughout the day. Lately I noticed dust building up more and more on glass tables, so now that the fall is here and the temperatures don't require the constant running of heat or AC, I decided it was time to clean it so that it would have plenty of time to dry.
When I took it out, I noticed that the first layer of white was still perfectly white, which seemed suspicious to me, but my wife and I took it to our upstairs bathtub anyway and ran it under both the faucet and the shower nozzle to test the results together. I did it here and not outside with a hose because our tub is white, and I wanted to see just how much dirt flowed out.
To my horror the water ran completely clean right from the start and continued to until I stopped 2-3 minutes later! I turned it all around, doing both sides and still the water ran clear. We looked at each other completely stunned. I then brought it down the kitchen sink with the removable nozzle head thinking that maybe it needed stronger, close up pressure, and still nothing! Clear water!
I know for a fact that it was inserted into our system with the air flow direction indicator going in the right direction because I remember checking and double checking it when it was first put in and verified it was right as I pulled it out today.
I'm writing to the company now hoping that it was a defective unit, because as of now, this seems like a complete scam.

Solid Construction and reusable! Nov 28, 2011
By Joseph Uselding I just replaced my disposable furnace filters with this new Boair one, and I am very impressed. The construction feels quite solid and it fit perfectly. The only thing I don't like it having to pull it out and rinse it off, then let it sit to dry. I think I may buy a disposable one that I can use for 1-2 days while this one is drying. Otherwise, it seems to be a great unit and one that should last for years!

It Works Jun 22, 2011
By oevillegas I bought this filter and I've had it for about a year now, it does a good job, the air flows better. It captures dust very well, but it cannot be compared with active electronic filters (the ones that you plug for power)
Over all, I am pleased with the purchase.
