Commercial & Industrial Box Fan Air Filters
Filtering air in indoor spaces helps eliminate unwanted airborne particles, enhances operations and productivity, and supports occupant health. However, installing a standard air filtration system may be outside some organizations’ budgets.
A simple filter, however, can make a significant difference in air quality. The box fan air filter is a more economical answer to the challenge of achieving sufficient air filtration in indoor environments. At Clean Liquid Systems, we offer high-quality commercial- and industrial-grade box fan air filter solutions to ensure cleaner, healthier air in your facility.
How Box Fan Air Filters Work
Typical box fan filters are do-it-yourself (DIY) air filters that provide a fast and economical option for improving indoor air quality when a commercial purifier is beyond your means. The Corsi-Rosenthal Box is an example of a relatively inexpensive box fan filter design. This DIY air purifier consists of a box fan, which you can purchase cheaply at your local hardware or big box store, and four or five MERV13 furnace filters or HVAC air filters. This is preferable to using a single filter on the fan’s front as this can result in excessive airflow restriction and motor overheating.
In a cube design, the filters are attached to the fan’s air entry side and each other using packing tape, duct tape, or Velcro tabs for convenient installation and filter changes. They may also use a piece of cardboard to seal off the base. As the box fan pulls air through these filters, they remove airborne particulates like dust, allergens, pollen, smoke, and viruses.
While DIY box fan air filters help improve air quality, keep in mind that the inexpensive fan can not handle much resistance from the filters. A MERV 13 rated filter is about a maximum that works with this system. They’re ideal for smaller spaces, temporary usage, or to supplement a larger air filtration system. Commercial- and industrial-grade box fan air filters offer heightened performance and longer-lasting air filtration.
Benefits of Commercial & Industrial Box Fan Filters
Pollutants from external sources like roadways can enter indoor spaces, or industrial operations can generate dust or fumes during their processes. Wherever you commonly find such pollutants, commercial- and industrial-grade box fan air filters can lend myriad benefits to your indoor areas. These benefits include:
-
Successful indoor air filtration
A box fan filter serves to remove unwanted or harmful airborne particulates and pollutants from the air. It effectively cleans the air passing through the fan by filtering out dust, pollen, and allergens, as well as undesired elements like viruses or fumes & Odors.
-
Clean air circulation
Rather than allowing harmful contaminants to circulate throughout your space, you can use a box fan air filter to replace dirty with clean air.
-
Enhanced air quality for better health
The benefit of this filtration and circulation, of course, is significantly improved air quality in indoor spaces — especially those in which ventilation is limited. The air is now safer for building occupants to breathe, which is particularly important for those suffering from allergies or respiratory-related illnesses.
-
Reduced equipment and product damage
In addition to protecting employees’ health, clean air also supports a longer lifespan in sensitive equipment and helps maintain product quality. Contaminants are filtered out before they can negatively impact your assets and goods.
-
Cost-effective filtration
As discussed, box fan filters tend to be more affordable than traditional air purifier alternatives. They incorporate readily available components for DIY options, and commercial- or industrial-grade box fan filters can provide quality air within your budget.
-
Eliminate odors & Harmful gasses
Activated carbon filters for box fans are highly effective at absorbing unpleasant odors and neutralizing them. They help keep bad smells resulting from things like cooking, smoke, and industrial fumes to a minimum for fresher-smelling air.
Industries We Serve
At Clean Liquid Systems, we serve a diverse client base of industrial and commercial organizations with our filtration solutions.
Children’s developing organs are especially susceptible to damage from poor air quality. Maintaining the cleanliness of indoor air with quality filters is important for school and university campuses to best safeguard the health of students and staff as well as children’s academic performance.
Poor air quality in offices and other commercial spaces can lead to health issues, make concentrating difficult, and reduce productivity. The outside air that HVAC systems deliver to internal spaces effectively dilutes indoor air pollutants, such as those brought in or released by workers, equipment, materials, and furniture, for better air quality.
Industrial facilities commonly experience airborne pollutants ranging from dust to harmful fumes, any of which can pose a threat to employees, product integrity, or operational processes. Air filters remove such particles to enhance manufacturing facilities’ indoor air quality.
The toxic emissions that body shops produce impact not just employee health but also the environment. Box fan filters are often necessary to efficiently remove these emissions for cleaner air quality.
Maintaining good air quality is important in warehouses where dust and other airborne particulates are common. Air filters can help remove these unhealthy pollutants from warehouse air, helping mitigate the risk of health problems linked to poor air quality ranging from fatigue and allergies to respiratory issues.
Outdoor air pollution affects not only people who spend a lot of time outdoors but also the air quality within retail buildings. Studies show that the air quality in retail stores tends to worsen when there’s a high degree of air pollution outside, which can negatively impact personnel and shoppers. Box fan air filters in retail stores are an ideal option for healthier air quality.
One of the most critical locations for proper air filtration would be healthcare facilities like hospitals. Poor air quality can negatively impact patients’ conditions, delaying their recovery and exacerbating symptoms. Proper control of hospital air quality is essential for protecting patients, guests, and personnel from fatigue, headaches, skin and eye irritation or dryness, or more serious ailments.
