Which Direction Does The Arrow Go When Installing an Air Filter?


Which Direction Does The Arrow on An Air Filter Go?
It's a strangely surprising task, changing your home air filters. There’s an arrow on the box, and it says to point in the direction of “Air Flow”, but what does that mean? It means the arrow faces the unit, or in other words, facing inside the space you’re putting it into. Assuming your unit is outside or in your attic, you want the arrow to face the unit.

Let’s make this simpler though. Make the arrows face the ceiling or wall.
If your filter is on the ceiling, the arrow should face the ceiling.
If your filter is on the wall, the arrow should face the wall.
Does your filter not have an arrow on it? First check again as nearly all filters do have it, likely in the corner of one of the sides. If it does not have an arrow though, you’ll want the side with the wire-frame to be facing outward. This means the side with the wire-frame will be on the outside, or the side closest to you, and the side without it will be inside closer to the unit.
If you’re still having trouble, you can email us a picture of the filter and encasement and we’ll let you know which way it goes. All of QualityAirFilters filters come equipped with the arrow for easy installation.

What Is Better For You- Bottled Water Or Tap Water?

Everyone knows that drinking an adequate amount of water is critical to our survival, but should we worry about whether we get our water from a bottle with a nice label or from the kitchen sink? According to Mr. Benjamin Grumbles, the head of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s water programs says “It’s an urban myth that bottled water is safer than tap water .” Many consumers admit to actually drinking both tap water and bottled water. For most people, if you have a filter at home, you probably could not distinguish the taste between the two. Nearly half of bottled water comes from a tap not the artisan springs and beautiful tropical waterfalls as we would like to imagine. In those cases, the water is filtered in many of the same ways as a home water filter works, except on a much larger scale. Chlorine and other contaminants are removed from the water prior to bottling. If you are still trying to decide between the two, there is no question that tap water is bett...
