Description
The AprilAire U243 is a 16×25 whole-house air purifier designed for professional installation with your existing HVAC system. It houses the AprilAire 3F413 MERV 13 3″ air filter and directs airflow through the filtration media to help clean air throughout the entire home while supporting HVAC performance and helping protect equipment from dust buildup. The U243 replaces the AprilAire 2410 Whole-House Air Purifier and features a redesigned, easy-glide rail system that ensures easier filter changes and correct filter installation every time, along with an effortless, secure closure air purifier door. Unlike portable room air purifiers that clean only one room, the U243 filters air throughout the entire home, using the AprilAire 3F413 MERV 13 3″ filter that exceeds industry requirements for MERV 13, removing up to 95% of household dust, mold, and allergens to help create a healthier indoor environment. The filter also provides over 90% greater protection against harmful airborne particles (0.30–1.0µm) compared to AprilAire’s 3″ MERV 11 filter (3F411). The unit is designed for less resistance and more energy efficiency, delivering up to 30% lower airflow resistance than leading brands, and offers a long filter life of up to 12 months — up to 2x longer than other leading brands. Optimized airflow supports efficient HVAC operation while helping extend the life of the heating and cooling system. AprilAire is a proud partner of the American Lung Association in support of its mission to improve lung health (the American Lung Association does not endorse any specific product, device, or service). As part of the AprilAire Healthy Air System, the U243 can be combined with additional components — sold separately — including fresh air ventilation, humidity control, radon control, zoning, IAQ control, and UVC sanitization to address all aspects of indoor air quality. The U243 is backed by a 10-year whole-home air purifier warranty plus AprilAire’s 10-year Clean-Coil Commitment, which includes $250 toward professional coil cleaning. The Healthy Air App (available on the App Store and Google Play) can be used to schedule filter replacement reminders. Genuine AprilAire air purifiers and filters are designed and made in the USA.
