Filter King AF16x25x1-M13 Merv 13 Air Filter 16x25x1

Product Description

The FILTER KING AF16x25x1-M13 is a MERV 13 pleated air filter designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. It captures fine particulates including dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, and fine particles that lower-rated filters miss. With a nominal size of 16x25x1 inches and an actual size of 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches, this filter fits a wide range of standard filter slots. MERV 13 filtration meets IAQ requirements for sensitive environments without requiring a high-static blower. This listing includes a pack of 10 filters, making it a practical stocking option for recurring maintenance schedules.

This filter is suited for residential forced-air furnaces, central air conditioning systems, and air handlers that accept a 1-inch filter slot. MERV 13 is commonly specified for homes with allergy or asthma concerns, multi-family housing, and light commercial spaces where improved indoor air quality is a priority. HVAC technicians and facility maintenance personnel frequently stock these filters for scheduled filter changes on systems where higher filtration efficiency is required by the building owner or occupant.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Always power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or breaker before opening the filter compartment. Confirm airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow toward the blower. MERV 13 filters should be inspected on a regular maintenance cycle, typically every 60 to 90 days depending on system runtime and site conditions, and replaced before static pressure drop affects system performance.
