Media Air Filters in Franklin County, Montgomery County & Hamilton County
Changing air filters frequently is part of owning an HVAC system because they can increase the life expectancy of the equipment and, when done properly, minimize the need for repairs by eliminating the strain and stress caused by poor airflow. Homeowners are encouraged to check their air filters every month and replace them as often as necessary.
However, we at Five Star Home Services often remind homeowners that not all air filters are created equal. The basic air filters that come with your furnace are only meant to protect your equipment. They don’t really do anything to improve air quality. If you’re looking to improve air quality, nevertheless, you can upgrade your air filters to a media air filter with a higher MERV rating, or to a four-inch air filter instead of the one-inch filter most widely used in homes today.
If you’re looking to upgrade your air filter to improve indoor air quality and you live in Greater Dayton, Greater Cincinnati or Greater Columbus, you’re in the right place. Call Five Star Home Services at (833) 405-8009.

4 Benefits of a Media Air Filter
Using a whole house air cleaner or media air filter has a wide range of benefits. In the following, our air quality control experts discuss several of those benefits.
Energy Savings
With heating and cooling costs on the rise, who doesn’t want to save a little energy, which equals money? Improve your home’s energy savings by keeping your HVAC equipment clean using a media air filter, which protects equipment and keeps it running optimally.
Less Need For Maintenance
Replacing your standard air filter with a high-performance accordion-style media air filter is an upgrade that protects HVAC equipment, which will need less maintenance. Typically air filters need to be checked every month. Not media filters. We suggest checking these filters every six months for changes. Then depending on the factors contributing to your home’s dust levels ad air quality, these filters only need to be replaced once a year.
Control Dust
The use of a media filter helps reduce dust build-up. Keeping the air circulating in your home cleaner makes the home look and feel cleaner. This is one way to control dust, which tends to build up more when air quality is compromised.
Removes Pollutants
When installed as part of your home’s heating and cooling unit, air cleaners permanently trap indoor allergens and dust that can cause respiratory problems. Removing these pollutants is better for your health and wellbeing, especially if you or anyone in the home suffers from allergens.

Residential Air Purifiers in Columbus, Dayton & Cincinnati, Ohio
MERV, short for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value, is a rating system for air filters. MERV is a scale of 1 to 16, with 16 being the highest-rated air filter. Most residential HVAC systems can’t use a filter above 13 on the MERV scale in most homes. In addition to air filter upgrades and HEPA filters, there are also media air cleaners and other options we can discuss. We also carry air cleaners such as the iWave-R and Reme Halo.
In short, media air filters offer homeowners superior air filtration at a fraction of the cost. We offer residents in the Greater Hamilton County, Ohio, Franklin County, and Montgomery County areas the best prices on media air filters and cabinets, as well as other types of air purifiers to work with your HVAC system. If you’ve been using the standard inch-thick air filter that comes with most HVAC units, you should ask us how we can help improve your indoor air quality with an air cleaner from Honeywell, Carrier, or Aprilaire. As your local air care experts serving all of Central Ohio and Southern Ohio, we are happy to offer the best prices on air filtration products you can depend on to optimize your home’s air quality.
