When most people think about air filters, they think about one thing: changing them on time. But at Filter-Monster, we’ve noticed something interesting — our filters don’t just clean the air, they tell a story.
See, our MERV 11 filters are yellow, and our MERV 13 filters are blue. That was no accident. Those colors say a lot about what kind of protection you want for your home.
Yellow: Everyday Defense
Yellow is sunshine in your vents. Our MERV 11 filter is designed for the typical home trapping dust, pollen, pet dander, and the usual suspects floating around in the air.
If you have kids in and out, some pets that think the couch is theirs, or you just need a good filter that you can rely on to keep your air clean without going overboard — yellow is the way to go.
It's the dependable friend who's never late. Affordable, resilient, and exactly what most homes need.
Blue: Maximum Protection
Blue, on the other hand, is peace of mind in a frame. Our MERV 13 filter is all about higher stakes — capturing smoke particles, bacteria, and smaller allergens that most filters won't catch.
If you've got allergy sufferers in the home, you live where there's wildfire smoke, or you're just serious about having the cleanest indoor air possible — blue is your pick.
It’s that little extra protection you didn’t know you needed, standing guard against the invisible stuff that can sneak into your lungs.
Which MERV Filter Is Right for You?
There’s no wrong answer here. Some families stick with yellow year-round. Others won’t settle for anything less than blue. And plenty switch between the two depending on the season.
At the end of the day, it comes down to one question:
Do you want daily defense or ultimate protection?
Either way, your air is cleaner, your HVAC system runs more smoothly, and your family breathes easier. That's the Filter-Monster promise
