Principis de funcionament
The 3M Filtrete FAPF02 Replacement Filter utilizes advanced filtration technology to capture airborne particles. As air passes through the filter, microscopic particles such as dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and dust mite debris are trapped within the filter media. This process helps to reduce allergens and improve the overall air quality in your indoor environment. The effectiveness of the filter is directly related to its ability to capture these particles, which diminishes over time as the filter becomes loaded with contaminants.
