AprilAire has launched TriPure Technology, a new air filtration system designed for residential HVAC systems. The Madison, Wisconsin-based company, which has specialised in indoor air quality solutions since 1954, says the technology removes more pollen, household dust, and lint than leading competitors whilst improving energy efficiency. The filters provide 20% to 30% better airflow compared to leading brands, which AprilAire says helps improve system efficiency and reduce energy consumption. The filters maintain peak performance for up to six or twelve months depending on the model selected. Heather Hartwig, Senior Product Manager at AprilAire, called TriPure "disruptive technology" that combines high-efficiency filtration, improved energy efficiency, and long service life. The filters are designed and manufactured in the US.
