Furnace Without Filter

QUESTION:

This should be an easy one.. I already have an opinion on this but would like to hear more as I could be wrong (not being a air flow expert and stuff).
When deciding between going with an electronic filter vs filter media
(assuming cost isn't an issue) which would be better. I've seen how electronic filters are built and I would think that they provide less restriction. However, I've been told the opposite - that filter media provides less restriction than electronic filters... Is that true?

ANSWER:

I have a a HVAC Company, I would not suggest installing a Electronic Air cleaner, besides the cost of the cleaner and installing then they seem to break down alot, and a contractor can not fix them they have to take them to a speclist to have them fix, but they do have lest air restriction, I perfer for my customers to use 3m pleated filters they are high destisy but they are good filters and they do have to be change once a month, Or Use a good eletrostatic filters Newtron have been around a while, Or if you really want a hosptital grade Abatement tech. have some but cost can run 600-1200 depending on who installs it.
