Farr’s Energy Award Program

The Completely Green Philosophy: Innovation Prosperity + Sustainability

The Total Cost of Ownershipfor using air filters in your HVACsystems involves several elements,including: the filters, installation andremoval cost, disposal, and energy.

Of these costs, energy is 60-80% of the total. Buying filterson a unit price basis can save a few dollars up-front, while costing thousands of dollars inincreased operating and energyexpenses.

Camfil Farr filters can slashHVAC energy costs by 25-50%vs. standard low cost air filters.

Camfil Farr is the world'slargest provider and purchaser ofair filter media. Our filtrationmedias are specifically engineeredfor energy saving performance.

Filters are manufactured usingcomponents and processes devel-oped by Camfil Farr engineers,and built at our own advancedmachining center.

Years of intensive testing in ourlaboratories and field installationsgoes into verifying energy per-formance for every filter product.

Life Cycle Costing (LCC) soft-ware, developed by Camfil Farr in1992, has helped thousands ofcustomers reduce energy expenseby choosing the optimum filter.

LCC calculates total cost ofownership based on real life filterperformance, rather than simplisticmathematical models. This allowsdiscussions of filter alternativesbased on science, rather thanguesswork.

Energy - The Air Filter Impact

• North American businesses spend$450 billion annually for energy.

• About 60% of that – $270 billion – is HVAC-related.

• If all these facilities used CamfilFarr energy-saving filters, andenergy was reduced by 10%, $27billion would be saved every year.

• World energy consumption is projected to increase 40-50% by 2010 (US Dept. of Energy).

Camfil Farr specialists offer multiple technologies to generate the data, calculations, and comparisonsneeded to make best-possible filter decisions

Life-Cycle Cost Analysis CamTesterEnergy modeling software produces objectivecomparisons of filters from all manufacturersregarding energy and total cost of ownership.Conditions specific to the application, includinghours of operation, energy cost, air pollution con-ditions, fan efficiency, labor cost and other factorsform the basis for highly accurate calculation.

SAVER In-Situ Testing

Our premium filters providerated efficiency performancethroughout their service life in theair handling unit. This is in markedcontrast with filter efficiency profiles that decline quickly, andcontinuously over time.

Because the mission of air filters is to protect people andprocesses, effective particleremoval is essential. Every 5-Starpremium “Green” filter uses finefiber media whose performancecomes from the quality, composi-tion and orientation of the fibers.

This contrasts with competitiveproduct using coarse fibermedia that is reliant upon a highelectrostatic charge. The chargeprovides high initial efficiency,but typically drops 2-3 MERV rating categories while in service,due to the simple, inevitablephysics of electrostatic decay.Camfil Farr filters deliver ratedMERV efficiency from time ofinstallation to time of removal.

Numerous field tests havebeen completed using ourCamField Lab and In-Situ Testingtechnology to demonstrate thesuperior air quality performanceand lower energy usage ofCamfil Farr filters compared toour competitors’ low purchasecost alternatives.

Healthcare spending in the U.S.exceeds $2.7 trillion annually. Ifclean air in your buildingreduced airborne viruses andbacteria, and cut your healthinsurance costs by 5%, howmuch would you save while pro-viding your employees the addedbenefit of a more healthful andproductive environment?

Configured PDA allows fast and accurate collection ofHVAC air filter site survey data and automatic input into LCC for energy savings optimization and quantification.

Efficiency and pressure drop in a customer's air handling units isdetermined using particle counters,airflow and pressure drop measuringdevices, as well as proprietary datarecording and reporting software.

Camfield Lab

According to EPA, Americansgenerate more than 251 milliontons of MSW* annually – the equiv-alent of 4.6 pounds of waste perperson/per day based on 2006population estimates. Of the vari-ous MSW strategies available,source reduction clearly has thegreatest long-term potential forlowering America’s waste burden.

Source reduction involves alter-ing the design, manufacture, oruse of products to reduce the totalvolume of discarded material. It isoften viewed by scientists and offi-cials as more compelling thanrecycling, since it is the only strat-egy synonymous with preventingwaste, rather than managing it once it’s created. Source reduction is a guiding principle forCamfil Farr Green Filter technology.

Filters that have a longer servicelife require less frequent change-out, directly lowering labor cost,disposal cost, and dunnage.Camfil Farr 5-Star premium filterslast 50-100% longer than economyproducts. During a 5-year period, a24,000 cfm HVAC system usingCamfil 5-Star premium filterscould reduce the number of filtersadded to the landfill burden by 56%.

Landfills are a visible reminderof why source reduction shouldbe part of US environmentalstrategy. They consume up to3,500 additional acres of landeach year and emit significantquantities of methane, an explosivegreenhouse gas 20 times moreharmful than carbon dioxide. InCanada, landfills generate over25% of the methane emissionscaused by human activity, sending1.2 million tons of this gas into the

atmosphere each year. Becausethe global warming effect ofmethane is 21 times greater thancarbon dioxide, this is equal togreenhouse gas emissions frommore than six million cars. Clearly,there are compelling argumentsfor reducing solid waste whereverpossible, and for supporting initia-tives that make solid waste reduc-tion a factor in buying decisions.

Camfil Farr 5-Star premium filters last longer because thedesign characteristics (low resist-ance to airflow, etc.) that produceenergy savings, also allow the filter to remain in service longer. Inaddition, our pleating and mediasurface area configurations ensurethe entire filter pack is fully used inthe collection of contaminant,eliminating the risk of prematureblinding or failure.

*Municipal Solid Waste

“Carbon footprint” measuresthe carbon dioxide emitted fromthe burning of fossil fuels in vehicles, power plants, industrialprocesses, etc. CO2 is the mainculprit in global warming, thusits reduction is the driving forcefor socially conscious and greendriven companies.

Everything we do leaves a markon the environment. Our goal is to lighten your impact, by bringing to market thoughtfullydesigned products that have lessenvironmental impact and lowerthe amount of energy consumedwhile they are in-service. In addition, because they stay inservice longer, the number offilters required is less.

Using fewer filters means fewertrucks moving filters from manu-facturing plant to end user.Millions fewer gallons of fossilfuel would be burned, and thousands fewer trees destroyedif all commercial and industrialbuildings in North America usedCamfil Farr 5-Star filters.

Mobile Media TesterParticle count and efficiencymeasurements are taken inorder to analyze and com-pare fine fiber vs. coarsecharged fiber bag filter products.

This comprehensive mobile lab tests 4pre/final filter combinations simultaneously at any site under local temperature, humidity,and contaminant generation (actual outsideair) conditions. The lab measures all relevantperformance criteria on a real-time basis,including airflow, efficiency, and pressure drop.
