Carrier EZXCABXX0825 Ez Flex Filter Cabinet Merv 8 24x20

Product Description

The CARRIER EZXCABXX0825 is an EZ Flex filter cabinet designed to house MERV 8 media filters in residential and light-commercial forced-air HVAC systems. Built from steel with an insulated, gray-finished cabinet body, it accommodates a nominal 24-inch by 20-inch filter and installs as a standalone filtration section in the supply or return air path. At 20.6 pounds and manufactured in the USA, this cabinet is a durable, code-ready solution for technicians looking to upgrade or replace existing filtration housings. The insulated construction helps prevent condensation and maintains airflow efficiency at the cabinet wall.

The EZXCABXX0825 is suited for residential forced-air systems where improved indoor air quality and filtration capacity are needed beyond what a standard 1-inch filter slot provides. It accepts deep-media MERV 8 filter elements, providing meaningful particulate capture without excessive pressure drop across typical residential air handlers and furnaces. Licensed HVAC technicians install this cabinet during new equipment installation or as a retrofit upgrade to an existing duct system, typically positioned on the return air side upstream of the air handler or furnace.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Shut down and lock out the air handler or furnace before installing or servicing the filter cabinet. The cabinet must be sealed to the duct connection on both inlet and outlet to prevent air bypass, which would reduce filtration effectiveness. Follow applicable local mechanical codes and manufacturer instructions for cabinet orientation and duct attachment.
