Aaf/flanders 87357.01202 Merv 8 Pleated Air Filter 20x20x1 3-pack

Product Description

The AAF/FLANDERS 87357.01202 is a MERV 8 pleated air filter sold in a 3-pack, sized at 20 inches x 20 inches x 1 inch. It uses 100% synthetic, wire-backed media mounted in a craft die-cut frame for structural integrity during service. Rated for approximately 90 days of use per filter, this unit captures pollen, dust and lint, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, bacteria, and virus carriers. It is a standard-format replacement filter suited for residential forced-air heating and cooling systems. Licensed HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners alike can install this filter without special tools.

This filter is designed for residential furnaces, air handlers, and central HVAC systems that accept a 20 x 20 x 1 inch filter. The MERV 8 rating makes it appropriate for households with pets, allergy concerns, or elevated dust loads. At this rating level, the filter improves indoor air quality without creating excessive static pressure drop across most residential blower systems. It is commonly installed in return-air grilles or cabinet filter slots in single-family and light-commercial applications.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC technician or qualified service professional should confirm airflow direction before installing — most filter frames are marked with an arrow indicating proper orientation toward the blower. Power down or set the thermostat to off before accessing the filter cabinet or return-air grille. Check that the die-cut frame seats flush against all four sides of the filter slot to prevent bypass. Replace each filter at or before the 90-day interval to maintain system efficiency and indoor air quality.
