Perks of using pleated filters over fibreglass filters
In this article we shall talk about some basic advantages of using pleated filters over fibreglass filters. Firstly, we need to talk about the longevity aspect here. As we have already mentioned pleated filters last longer than fibre glass filters. We can capitalize on it in three ways: efficiency, economy and convenience. But what is the reason behind this? When you pleat the media of the filter it enhances the surface area of the same, allowing it to capture a larger number of particles in the fluid. In other words, the dust and dirt particles which usually suspend in the fluid we call air is trapped by the media of the filter and if there is more surface area on the filter, more will be the number of particles captured. This means you can use it for a long time before the surface of the media of the filter is saturated. In the case of fibreglass filters, the surface area to capture the dust particles is less and hence they become saturated pretty quick. Using pleated filters e
