AprilAire Launches TriPure™ Technology for Homeowners Focused on Indoor Air Quality

-New professional-grade filters capture more contaminants while maintaining HVAC efficiency and filter life-

MADISON, Wis., Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AprilAire, a leader in professional-grade indoor air quality solutions, today announced the launch of its new line of residential air filters featuring proprietary TriPure^™ Technology. Available in both 3-inch and 1-inch configurations, the TriPure Technology filters are engineered to capture airborne contaminants while maintaining superior airflow. As consumers become increasingly focused on the health and wellness of their families, AprilAire developed TriPure Technology to address growing demand for filtration solutions that improve indoor air quality and protect heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems simultaneously.

"Today's homeowners want healthier air without sacrificing HVAC system performance," said Jimmy Pendley, President of AprilAire. "With TriPure Technology, we've engineered a new generation of air filters that combines exceptional filtration, superior airflow and long filter life to help homeowners protect their families and their HVAC investment."

High-Performance Filtration Without Compromise
Historically, homeowners have often had to choose between filtration effectiveness and HVAC efficiency. TriPure Technology was designed to eliminate that tradeoff, delivering healthier air, superior airflow, and long filter life in a single solution.

For homeowners with professionally installed whole-home air purification systems, TriPure Technology 3-Inch Air Filters are available in Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) 11 and MERV 13 performance levels.

• Provides a proven filter life of up to 12 months, lasting up to twice as long as competing filters.***
• Includes an AprilAire whole-home air purifier limited warranty and an enhanced 10-Year Clean-Coil Commitment.****

The new 3-inch filters also simplify maintenance by serving as a direct replacement for AprilAire 4-inch MERV 11 and MERV 13 filters. Complimentary upgrade rails and an easy-glide design make installation and replacement faster and easier.

For homeowners with standard furnace and air handler filtration systems with a one-inch filter slot, the TriPure Technology 1-Inch Air Filter provides the following key benefits:

• Removes up to 88% of household dust and pollen particles
