Aaf/flanders 81555.011224 Pleated Air Filter 12x24x1 Merv 6

Product Description

The AAF/FLANDERS 81555.011224 is a basic pleated air filter rated MERV 6, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. It measures 12 inches by 24 inches by 1 inch and features a kraft paper frame with wirebacked pleated media that holds its shape during airflow. At MERV 6, this filter captures common airborne particles including pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and dust and lint. It carries a 60-day service life under normal operating conditions. HVAC technicians and service contractors install this filter as part of routine preventive maintenance on forced-air heating and cooling systems.

This filter fits standard 1-inch filter slots in residential forced-air furnaces, air handlers, and packaged HVAC units. The 12 by 24 by 1 inch nominal size covers a widely used residential filter opening. The kraft frame provides adequate structural support in low-velocity residential duct systems. It is sold in cases of 12 units, making it practical for service contractors maintaining multiple accounts or for stocking filter inventory at a single property.
