Glasfloss 12X12X1PL40 Pleated Air Filter 12x12x1 Merv 10

Product Description

The GLASFLOSS 12X12X1PL40 is a Z-Line Series standard-capacity pleated air filter rated MERV 10 per the ANSI/ASHRAE 52.2 test standard. Measuring 12 x 12 x 1 inches and weighing 0.42 pounds, it is built for residential and light commercial HVAC systems where balanced airflow and particulate capture are both priorities. The filter media uses synthetic fibers that do not absorb moisture and will not support microbial growth, making it suitable for humid climates and year-round service. HVAC technicians and facilities maintenance personnel are the typical installers.

The Z-Line pleated design increases media surface area compared to flat-panel filters, improving particle capture efficiency without creating excessive static pressure drop. This filter fits standard 1-inch filter tracks and is appropriate for forced-air furnaces, air handlers, and fan coil units in residential and light commercial applications. Its MERV 10 rating makes it a solid choice for general HVAC filtration where pollen, dust mite debris, mold spores, and fine dust are the primary concerns.

Key Features

• MERV 10 rated per ANSI/ASHRAE 52.2 — captures pollen, mold spores, and fine dust particles
• Synthetic fiber media does not absorb moisture and resists microbial growth
• Pleated construction maximizes media surface area within a 1-inch depth
• Lightweight at 0.42 pounds — easy single-tech handling and changeout
• Standard 1-inch profile fits common residential and light commercial filter tracks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for standard 1-inch pleated filter applications in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Power down or switch the system to the off position at the thermostat before removing the existing filter to prevent unfiltered air from being drawn through the system. Confirm airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow toward the blower before securing the filter in the rack. Inspect the filter housing for gaps or bypass leakage that would reduce filtration effectiveness.
