Does a replacement filter require resetting the system's airflow controls?

How a system behaves when its filters change is decided by that system, and the label sets the filter's own limits.

The NanoFlashing™ Air Filter is specified by nominal size, rated airflow and maximum face velocity, and its label instructs: “Do not use where this filter would restrict airflow beyond the system's specification.” It also states: “Improper installation can reduce airflow or damage the equipment.” and “Results in a building depend on the system, the airflow, and how well the filter fits its track.”

Whether a system is rebalanced after a filter change is decided by the people who commission that system, against its own design. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.
