Air Filter Merv Ratings: MERV 1
ASHRAE MERV rating cross-reference per ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 52.2 — MERV 1 through 16 with efficiency range group (E-1/E-2/E-3), particle size range controlled, arrestance value (MERV 1-4), example contaminants, typical HVAC applications, and representative filter media types.
| merv rating | arrestance value | efficiency range group | filter types | standard | typical applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MERV 1 | <65% | E-3 | Inertial separators | ASHRAE 52.2-2017 | Protection from blowing large particle dirt and debris; industrial environment ventilation air |
