Where AprilAire prints your filter number
AprilAire says every compatible filter is listed inside the air purifier's cabinet door. The filter number is also on the white sticker on the black rail of the filter you have now.
How long AprilAire filters last
- AprilAire's FAQ says MERV 10, 11 and 13 filters are changed once a year, with a check every six months if the fan runs all the time. AprilAire's product pages for the 210, 213, 410 and 413 list 12 months.
- The 201 and 401 can last up to 2 years, AprilAire says, or 12 months if the fan runs all day, every day.
- MERV 16 and MERV 13 + Carbon filters are changed every six months.
- A filter is due when it turns from bright white to dark gray.
AprilAire's TriPure filters and upgrade kits
- AprilAire lists the UK213 and UK413 MERV 13 TriPure filters as the replacements for the 213 and 413, each with one-time upgrade rails.
- For the 2200 and 2400, AprilAire suggests the U1213 and U1413 Upgrade Kits. They swap the 201 or 401 for a TriPure UK213 or UK413 filter with upgrade rails.
- AprilAire says TriPure filters fit all its 4 in and upgraded 6 in whole-house air purifiers. It lists up to 12 months of life for the 3 in filter.
MERV 16 and carbon filters
AprilAire's 216 and 416 are its MERV 16 filters, the highest MERV it lists. Its 2210 page also lists a 213CBN (MERV 13 + carbon) for that cabinet.
Honeywell Home filters made for AprilAire cabinets
Resideo's guide lists Honeywell Home FC2200 and FC2400 filters (MERV 10) as direct replacements for installed Space-Guard or AprilAire cabinets. Its PopUP2200 and PopUP2400 filters (MERV 11) install in an AprilAire media cabinet without a plastic inner frame.
