Aprilaire 216 Merv 16 Allergy and Asthma Replacement Filter 20x25 4 Inch

Product Description

The Aprilaire 216 is a MERV 16 replacement air filter designed for select Aprilaire whole-house air cleaners and air purification systems. This 4-inch deep media filter measures 20 inches wide by 25 inches tall and delivers hospital-grade filtration performance for residential and light commercial HVAC applications. It is the highest-rated filter option available for compatible Aprilaire whole-house air cleaner units, making it the go-to choice for homeowners and HVAC technicians who need maximum indoor air quality performance. The Aprilaire 216 captures 95% of airborne particles at 0.3 to 1 micron, 98% of particles at 1 to 3 microns, and 99% of particles at 3 to 10 microns. This level of filtration is highly effective at trapping fine dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, smoke particles, bacteria, and other allergens that standard filters miss. With 47.8 square feet of media area packed into a pleated 4-inch media design, this filter maintains low airflow resistance while delivering high efficiency filtration. The initial resistance ratings range from 0.06 to 0.36 inches water column depending on airflow rate, and the filter supports airflow capacities from 400 CFM up to 1600 CFM. That wide airflow range makes it compatible with a broad range of whole-house HVAC systems. HVAC technicians installing or servicing Aprilaire Model 2200, 2400, 3200, or similar compatible whole-house air cleaners will find this a direct drop-in replacement. The MERV 16 rating meets ASHRAE filtration standards for high-efficiency particulate control, making it suitable for households with allergy or asthma concerns. This filter is especially recommended for customers seeking relief from seasonal allergens and fine airborne particulates. Replace on schedule to maintain rated efficiency and system airflow performance.
