## Questions & Answers

**Q: I normally use the 213 filter.  Will the 216 filter fit and is it worth the extra money?**
A: They should be the same size. The 216 is just rated at MERV 16 while the 213 is rated at MERV 213. It’s up to you whether the higher filtration is worth the extra money.....and if your blower can handle the increased pressure drop that you would get from the 216 (higher MERV equals higher resistance). Hope that helps.

**Q: does a higher MERV put a higher strain on the system?**
A: Thank you for your interest in our products. Aprilaire Merv 16 filter still offers a low static pressure at variable CFM. The pleats on an Aprilaire filter create more surface area to lower resistance for much better air flow and increased system performance. 216 and 416 filters not recommended for use with 5-ton systems.

**Q: Moved to home with aprilaire purifers, replaced with same aprilaire merv 13. no pets, just husband and i. noticed more dust. should i use merv 16?**
A: I have upgraded to next level aprilaire filters  recently, the cost was minimal and the filtering is excellent

**Q: really, its cheaper to buy one at a time??**
A: No.  One costs $112.99 and the 2-pack is $204.99 ($102.50 each).

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High-Efficiency Filter That Breathes New Life into My HVAC
*by A***S on June 28, 2025*

I swapped in the AprilAire 216 MERV 16 replacement filter and immediately noticed a drop in dust and pollen settling on my vents and furniture. This filter traps up to 99% of airborne allergy and asthma triggers—including dust mites, pet dander, and mold spores—so my home’s air feels noticeably cleaner and fresher throughout the day.Installation couldn’t be simpler: just slide it into the Aprilaire interlock rail system until it clicks, and you’re done—no gaps thanks to their patented self-seal technology that minimizes air bypass. The sturdy 20×25×4-inch frame holds its shape under airflow without sagging, and I appreciate that it’s made in the USA with high-grade media designed for long service life.After a month of daily use, I’ve seen less strain on the blower and fewer dust buildups, which gave my HVAC technician confidence during our last tune-up. While MERV 16 filters carry a premium price, the boost in air quality—especially for anyone with allergy concerns—makes it well worth the investment. This AprilAire filter is now a must-have in my maintenance routine.
