Hi all - Our maintenance person is telling the food safety team that the standard 0.01 micron point of contact air filter required by most food safety auditing schemes in becoming very hard to find and wants to know if it is possible to clean them and reuse them.
I know he is under pressure from the owner to save money and I don't know if the filters are really hard to find or if he is trying to find a way to not buy new ones. He is more of a mechanic than anything and I don't know if his information is reliable. It seems like this has been a requirement for years and it can't be that hard to purchase these air filters.
Any suggestions or sources are appreciated, thanks!
