Airex TA15201 Fiberglass Panel Air Filter 15x20x1 Inch

Product Description

The AIREX TA15201 is a disposable fiberglass panel air filter sized 15 inches by 20 inches by 1 inch, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC air handling equipment. It uses Polystrand fiberglass media encapsulated in a polymer coating that produces a high-loft filtration layer. Fibers are loosely arranged on the air-entering side and progressively woven tighter toward the air-exiting side, creating a laminated backing that increases dust holding capacity and reduces surface loading. The filter carries a MER value of 4 to 5 and handles airflow between 640 and 1080 CFM. A licensed HVAC technician or qualified installer handles routine filter replacement in forced-air systems.

The TA15201 is suited for use in air conditioning units and forced-air furnace systems where a standard 15 x 20 x 1 inch disposable filter is specified. The progressive fiber construction resists surface loading, extending the effective service interval compared to flat-media alternatives. The heavy-duty moisture-resistant white kraft board frame maintains shape under normal operating conditions. This filter is a practical fit for high-volume filter replacement programs in residential service routes or light commercial maintenance schedules.

Key Features

• Polystrand fiberglass media with progressive weave construction — looser on the intake side, tighter on the discharge side for improved depth filtration
• MER value of 4 to 5 for standard particulate capture in residential and light commercial applications
• Rated airflow range of 640 to 1080 CFM
• Temperature rated to 180 degrees F continuous and 200 degrees F intermittent
• Dust holding capacity of 110 grams reduces premature loading
• Heavy-duty moisture-resistant white kraft board frame eliminates need for metal backing
• UL listed per applicable standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement disposable panel filter for air conditioning units and forced-air HVAC systems requiring a 15 x 20 x 1 inch filter slot.

Installation Notes

Filter replacement is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Always shut down the air handler or furnace and set the thermostat to the off position before removing or installing the filter. Confirm the airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Follow local mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for recommended filter replacement intervals.
