Important Note: Please be advised that the ASHRAE committee SSPC 52.2. in
March 2016, has published “addendum e” relative to the 52.2-2012 test
protocol. This addendum restricts the use of the acronym “MERV” as only
applicable to a test report that has been completed using the “entire
procedure prescribed by the standard”. This report is a modified version of
the procedure and therefore, subject to that ruling.In the best interest of
our customers, Blue Heaven Technologies has elected to delay this action until
further assessment can be made at committee level. Where applicable, the
qualified use of the term “MERV” will continue to be part of our reported
data.
