How many of you use the High Efficiency filters in you A/C units? I never saw the benefit, until this year when our allergies were so bad. Sharn Jean talked me into buying one of the HE filters in hopes that it would help with the allergies. I think it has helped some, but out of necessity we still spend time outside, so the allergies still persist.
I did notice one thing though; about the same time I installed the new filter, I did a two day house cleaning (Yeah, I do most of it, Sharn Jean gets breakfast in bed (not really) and does some custom sewing on the side) including a thorough dusting of the furniture, much of which is antique, wooden and are huge dust collectors. I have had the filter installed maybe a couple of months, and a recent inspection showed that there is little or no dust accumulation on the furniture! I guess the $18.00 price tag is worth it!
