Aaf/flanders 84858.012424 Merv 8 Pleated Filter 24x24x1 12-pack

Product Description

The AAF/FLANDERS 84858.012424 is a MERV 8 pleated air filter rated for 90 days of service in residential and light commercial forced-air systems. It uses 100% synthetic, wire-backed filter media housed in a clay-coated paperboard frame. At 24 inches by 24 inches by 1 inch, this filter captures a broad range of airborne particulates while maintaining adequate airflow across standard residential air handlers and furnaces. The case pack contains 12 individual filters. MERV 8 performance makes this a practical upgrade over standard fiberglass panel filters without the static-pressure penalty of higher-rated media.

This filter is designed for installation in residential furnaces, air handlers, and packaged HVAC units that accept a 24 x 24 x 1 inch filter slot. It is suited for homes with pets, allergy-sensitive occupants, or environments with elevated dust levels. The 90-day service interval is appropriate for average residential occupancy; high-traffic or pet-heavy households may require more frequent replacement. HVAC technicians often spec this filter for maintenance agreements where consistent MERV 8 filtration is part of the service plan.

Key Features

• MERV 8 rating captures pollen, dust, lint, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, bacteria, and virus carriers
• 100% synthetic wire-backed media maintains filter shape and resists collapse under normal system static pressure
• Clay-coated frame resists moisture and holds its form in humid return-air environments
• 90-day rated service life under standard residential conditions
• Sold as a case of 12 filters, reducing per-unit cost for maintenance stock

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement pleated air filter for residential and light commercial furnaces, air handlers, and packaged units requiring a 24 x 24 x 1 inch filter.

Installation Notes

Licensed HVAC technicians and qualified service personnel should shut down the air handler or furnace at the thermostat and disconnect power at the disconnect or breaker before servicing the filter compartment. Insert the filter with the airflow arrow on the frame pointing toward the blower and away from the return-air grille. Verify the filter seats flush with no bypass gaps at the frame edges. Disposal of used filters should follow local waste-handling guidelines.
