Filter King AF16x25x1-CO Carbon Hvac Air Filter 16x25x1

Product Description

The FILTER KING AF16x25x1-CO is a carbon pleated HVAC air filter designed to capture airborne particles while providing odor-reduction performance through activated carbon media. Built in a nominal 16x25x1 size with an actual dimension of 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches, this filter fits standard residential and light-commercial air handler and furnace filter slots. It installs in forced-air systems as a drop-in replacement for standard 1-inch filters. HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners can complete the swap without tools in most applications. The pleated design increases surface area compared to flat fiberglass media, supporting better particulate and odor capture across a typical service interval.

This filter is suited for residential forced-air systems including gas furnaces, heat pumps, and central air conditioning units that accept a 1-inch filter. The 16x25x1 nominal size is among the most common residential filter slots in North America, making this a frequent go-to replacement for service calls and preventive maintenance visits. The carbon media layer addresses household odors from cooking, pets, and other indoor sources in addition to standard particulate filtration. It is sold in a quantity of 10 per purchase, making it practical for stocking service vehicles or supply rooms.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light-commercial forced-air HVAC systems that accept a standard 1-inch filter in a 16x25x1 nominal filter slot. Confirm actual slot dimensions against the filter actual size of 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified service professional in accordance with local codes and the equipment manufacturer's guidelines. Always power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or thermostat before accessing the filter compartment. Note the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame and orient the filter accordingly before closing the access panel. Replace filters on a schedule appropriate to site conditions, as carbon media can become saturated faster in high-odor or high-particulate environments.
