Summary

The requirements for conserving energy and reducing life cycle costs (LCC) have increased considerably at the same time as demandsfor a better indoor climate and higher productivity. Air ventilation systems often consume the lion's share of a building's energy and the pressure drop in air filters can account for a large portion of the total pressure drop. A computer software has been developed to calculate the life cycle costs of air filters for this purpose. Based on experience to date, users and designers of air handling systems have found the program to be of valuable assistance when it comes to managing the difficult task of selecting filters for optimum LCC.
