Filters has been constantly used to remove dirt and other unwanted particles. The filters are used for various reasons. In some case the filters are fitted in the air condition to filter air and in some cases they are used in clean water. The air filtration industry has grown tremendously and has made advances in developing the products. Installing and operating the filters in various institute has gown down tremendously.
The use of air conditioner in the recent year has grown tremendously. In summers it is use for cooling and in winter it is required for warming up the room. Proper attention is required for smooth functioning of the air conditioning. The air filters used in AC all of them has different function. The common types of filter used in the AC are:
Washable air filters: These are the most common types of air filter used in filtration of the air. The dust is concentrated to the filters. These dirt can be easily washed and remove from the filter. This is the worst filter and experts give many reasons not to buy. The performance is restricted; this type of filter need more maintenance, the filter is used without drying it can collect dust and bacteria. As a result the circulation of the air could be stop. The most important part is that these filters are costly.
Fiberglass filter: Filters are usually made with the layers of fiberglass piece and are laid over each other. This forms the filter. The fiber glass will help in filtering the small sand particle. The fiberglass filters is commonly used in America and UK.
Polyester and Pleated Filters: These filters helps in providing a superior air quality in compare to the fiberglass. The use of these filters greatly helped in reducing the dust which can enter in the room. They provide the quality air to the person inside the home.

Patent in the hospital and other in the ICU requires air which is high in oxygen content for quick healing of injuries and recovery. The commonly used filtration is UV light air filters, carbon and Ionic.
Ionic air filters: These types of filter are heavily depends on voltage. The process is that it produces the negatively charged ion which attracts the dust and germs. The dust particles which attracts to the ions then get deionized and eliminate from the air. This process helps in getting the quality air inside the room.
Carbon air filters: The process in this is that it uses the treated carbon to attract the dust particles present in the air. The carbon becomes highly absorbent when treated with the oxygen. The treated carbon then is used to filter gases, chemical and cigarette smoke.
