| Product Description: | Filtrete Ultimate Allergen Reduction Filters help capture unwanted particles from your household air, contributing to a cleaner, fresher home environment. By proactively capturing dust, bacteria, viruses and allergens, these high performance filters help improve your home’s air quality. Included in this pack are three filters.
Product Features:
Outperforms fiberglass, washable and non-electrostatic 3-month pleated 1" home air filters for your furnace, air conditioner, or HVAC system
Designed with exclusive Filtrete Brand 3-in-1 technology from 3M to trap unwanted air particles while letting cleaner air flow through
Attracts and captures microscopic particles such as smoke, cough and sneeze debris, bacteria and viruses—and large particles, including lint, household dust and pollen
Filtrete 1900 MPR (Microparticle Performance Rating) equates to MERV 13
For maximum performance, change your home air filter at least every 90 days for 1” filters, and at least every 12 months for 4” and 5” filters.
For residential use only
The higher the MPR, the more microparticles - such as pollen, pet dander, smoke, bacteria and viruses - your filter will capture from the air passing through it
Includes three Filtrete 20" x 20" x 1" Ultimate Allergen Reduction Filters
(Model UAFP-20X20BJ)

If you do some research you'll find this sentiment: A furnace filters job is to protect the furnace, not filter the air.
What happens when you use these high rating filters, especially if you have 1" filters, is that they clog super quickly and starve the furnace for air. Leading to possible fan burnout and whistling from the furnace trying to suck in air.
Best bet is to get the lower filters (I have 1" and stick to one level above fiberglass) and change them often.

I bet the back pressure on a clean 1" merv13 has to be huge when it's new as well.
I wouldn't even think of using merv 13 on my 4" filter housings.
This is a killer deal for those who love static pressure.

The cost to move air through a merv 13 can be upwards of 300% more than running it through a merv 7 with pretty much zero difference in the air quality.

This review of the static pressure of this 3M 1900 was pretty good according to this test from The Farm Project. It actually scored better than some of the lower MERV rated filters.
