- Description
Overview of Aerostar FP Mini-Pleat
Engineered for energy efficiency and long service life, the Aerostar FP Mini-Pleat filter delivers exceptional air quality in variable air volume (VAV) systems and 100% humidity environments. Its wet-laid fiberglass media and rigid plastic frame ensure consistent performance, while upgrade options allow facilities to achieve near-HEPA efficiency in standard housings.
Exceptional Dust Holding Capacity
With 193 square feet of wet-laid fiberglass media, the Aerostar FP provides significantly higher dust holding capacity than conventional filters. This expanded media area reduces the frequency of filter changes and supports stable airflow in demanding environments, making it a cost-effective solution for facilities requiring reliable particulate control.
Energy Efficient Operation
Engineered for low resistance, the FP Mini-Pleat maintains a low pressure drop across the filter, helping HVAC systems operate more efficiently. The result is optimized airflow performance, reduced energy consumption, and long-term cost savings—all without sacrificing air quality or durability under high-moisture or turbulent conditions.
Upgrade to Near-HEPA Performance
For applications requiring enhanced particulate control, the Aerostar FP can be upgraded to a MERV 16 (98% DOP) rating. This option achieves near-HEPA efficiency in a standard ASHRAE housing, providing superior protection against fine particles without the need for specialized equipment or costly system modifications.
