- Dylan16807 6y agoOh, I see. That's a weird hack to get more surface areas instead of just using a deeper filter. All the pictures I could find were systems like this that do just use deeper pleats: https://images.allergybuyersclub.com/img/IQ-AP-HP-airflow.jpg https://images.allergybuyersclub.com/img/IQ-AP-HP-airflow.jp...
- danans 6y agoI could be wrong, but I think using separate filters distributes the air streams across independent filtration channels, reducing the static pressure of the system. Similar to a pleated filter, the angular orientation is probably about packing more surface area into a smaller space vs. parallel filter channels oriented linearly.
