I ordered these VOC filters along with a new pre filter this time. I don't replace the prefilter as often as I do the VOC filters because we have multiple dogs and the hair traps a lot of the dust & dirt, prolonging the life of the filter. Yeah crazy, but true. So every once in a while I gently tip the IQ over on its side and vacuum off the accumulated dog hair & dirt. O.k. Lets face it. Air filters are a must have for TI (toxically injured), and they're expensive. The IQ and its filters are among the most expensive out there. And the majority of TIs are living below the poverty line, as it is. So, sharing the tip about pet hair is valuable info for TIs. Prolonging the life of the filters makes the investment doable. Is the IQ the best air filter. Yes, it's the foundation of my system. (I have other less expensive filters for peripheral filtration, but this is my workhorse.) Is this filter essential? Yes! Does it work? Yes!

Some of you may balk at the styrofoam housing on the pre filter... Don't. I've a sensitivity to styrene (so I was concerned too) but they address that at the factory and I've never had a problem with any of these filters. I should note I do not like the canisters that have the purafil in addition to the activated carbon. It stinks, and doesn't work as well. the all carbon ones work better.

They are easy to replace, also important for TIs, who generally have very little energy to spare.
