Bsc Preferred DB1-2030-8-12 Pleated Air Filter Merv 8

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED DB1-2030-8-12 is a MERV 8 pleated air filter designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Measuring 20x30x1 inches, it installs in standard filter slots on forced-air furnaces and air handlers. The pleated media captures large airborne particulates including dust, lint, pollen, pet dander, and dust mite debris, delivering up to 75% capture efficiency for particles in the target size range. At a MERV 8 rating, the filter maintains adequate airflow while providing meaningful particulate control. Service life is rated up to 3 months under typical residential use conditions. Packaged weight is 0.73 pounds per unit.

This filter is suited for residential forced-air heating and cooling systems where standard 1-inch filter slots are used. It is a direct drop-in for furnaces, air handlers, and heat pumps that accept a 20x30x1-inch filter. HVAC technicians, property managers, and facilities maintenance staff commonly use this filter as a cost-effective, routine replacement. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 12 units per order at the each unit of measure.

Installation Notes

Air filters of this type are installed by HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Power down the HVAC system at the thermostat before removing the old filter to prevent unfiltered air from being drawn through the system during changeout. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of air movement toward the blower. Dispose of the used filter in a sealed bag to contain captured particulates.
