3M 7100188697 Micro Allergen Reduction Filter 18x20x1 4-pack

Product Description

The 3M 7100188697 is a 1-inch electrostatic pleated air filter designed to reduce microscopic and large airborne allergens in residential forced-air HVAC systems. Measuring 18 inches x 20 inches x 1 inch, it uses an electrostatic charge to capture particles including dust, smoke, smog particles, mold spores, and pet dander. Sold as a 4-pack, this filter is installed by HVAC technicians or knowledgeable homeowners during routine filter maintenance on standard 1-inch filter-slot air handlers and furnaces.

This filter is suited for residential forced-air heating and cooling systems that accept a standard 1-inch filter. The 18 x 20 x 1-inch nominal size fits a wide range of air handlers and furnaces found in single-family and multi-unit residential applications. Its electrostatic media outperforms non-electrostatic pleated and washable 1-inch filters for allergen capture, making it appropriate for environments where occupant air quality is a priority.
