Know before you buy
A MERV 10 rating indicates that the filter is effective at capturing fine particles like pollen, dust mites, and mold spores. It provides a significant upgrade over standard fiberglass filters, making it a great choice for households looking to reduce common indoor allergens.
This filter is engineered with a low pressure drop, which is designed to maintain efficient airflow. By minimizing resistance, it helps your HVAC system operate without unnecessary strain while still providing effective filtration.
No, these are disposable filters. They are designed to be replaced every few months depending on your home's environment to ensure your system continues to run cleanly and efficiently.
While the nominal size is 20 x 25 x 1 inch, please measure your current filter or the filter slot in your unit to confirm it matches the exact dimensions of 17-1/2 x 23-1/2 x 7/8 inch. Using the exact dimensions ensures a proper seal and prevents unfiltered air from bypassing the filter.
The metal backing provides structural integrity to the pleats, preventing the filter from collapsing or bowing under the pressure of your HVAC system's blower. This ensures the filter maintains its shape and performance throughout its lifespan.
