Glasfloss GDS_16X16X1 Panel Air Filter 16x16x1 in

Product Description

The GLASFLOSS GDS_16X16X1 is a disposable fiberglass panel air filter rated for commercial, industrial, and residential HVAC applications. Measuring 16 inches x 16 inches x 1 inch with 1.77 square feet of media area, it handles airflow up to 300 FPM with an initial resistance of 0.09 inches WC and a final resistance of 0.50 inches WC. The filter uses progressively dense fiberglass media that is thermally bonded for consistent performance across its service life. A heavy-duty one-piece craft-board frame eliminates sharp edges for safer handling, simplifies disposal, and provides structural integrity without the weight of traditional metal grill frames. Licensed HVAC technicians and building maintenance professionals are the primary installers.

This panel filter fits standard 16 x 16 x 1 inch filter slots in residential forced-air systems, commercial rooftop units, and industrial air-handling equipment. The double-strut frame construction delivers 10% greater open media area compared to traditional metal grill filters, supporting strong dust-holding capacity while maintaining lower static pressure across a wide range of systems. Its disposable design reduces service time at changeout and keeps handling straightforward in both light commercial and heavy industrial environments where quick filter replacement is a priority.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Always shut down the air-handling unit or furnace before removing or installing the filter.
