Airex TA20221/41 Fiberglass Panel Air Filter 20x22.25x1 in

Product Description

The AIREX TA20221/41 is a disposable fiberglass panel air filter designed for residential and light commercial air conditioning systems. It measures 20 inches by 22.25 inches by 1 inch and delivers MERV 4 to 5 filtration performance. The filter media uses Polystrand fiberglass, a continuous-strand material encapsulated in a polymer coating that produces a high-loft, layered filtration structure. Fibers are loosely arranged on the air-entering side and progressively tighter on the air-exiting side, increasing dust-holding capacity and reducing surface loading. The frame is a heavy-duty moisture-resistant white kraft board construction.

This filter is suited for air conditioning unit applications where a low-cost, disposable panel filter is appropriate. The graduated fiber density design extends service life by drawing particulates deeper into the media rather than loading the face surface. A temperature rating of 180 degrees F continuous and 200 degrees F intermittent makes it compatible with most standard forced-air and air conditioning systems encountered in residential and light commercial service work. HVAC technicians and service professionals install this filter as a routine maintenance replacement.

Key Features

• Polystrand fiberglass media: continuous fibers greater than 3.5 microns, classified as non-respirable
• Graduated fiber density — loosely spun on inlet side, progressively tighter on outlet side — increases dust-holding capacity
• MERV 4 to 5 filtration rating per UL applicable standard
• Temperature rated to 180 degrees F continuous and 200 degrees F intermittent
• Heavy-duty moisture-resistant white kraft board frame for structural integrity without metal backing
• Disposable construction for straightforward scheduled replacement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement panel filter for residential and light commercial air conditioning units requiring a 20 x 22.25 x 1 inch disposable fiberglass filter.

Installation Notes

Panel air filters of this type are installed and replaced by HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel. Power down or switch the system to the off position at the thermostat and disconnect power at the air handler or furnace before opening the filter compartment. Confirm airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow into the equipment. Dispose of the used filter in accordance with local waste guidelines.
