Envirosept Furnace Filter

I am in the process of adding central air to an existing furnacesystem. The system currently includes a Honeywell electronic aircleaner made in 1976. As part of the addition, I am consideringreplacing the old Honeywell with an Envirosept Electronic FurnaceFilter, which sounds pretty good just from browsing the Net.My question is, would this new unit be much more effective (or lesseffective) than the old one? I know the old one is working to someextent, since I can see the dirt come off when it gets cleaned.Any advice greatly appreciated!

Wow! No idea I'd start such a debate.

I guess my interpretation of all this puts me off the idea of the Envirosept due to the decreased airflow. So, the question then becomes, should I replace the old 1976 Honeywell electronic air cleaner with a new one of the same type, or has the technology not changed during that time? Would an upgrade be worth the expense?

Thanks!

Thanks! Does the Aprilaire cause less airflow reduction than the Envirosept then?
