Built on the Multi-Pleat XL8 SC platform, it features 100% synthetic media housed in a beverage board frame and measures 2 inches in depth. The filter carries both a MERV 8 and MERV-A 8 performance rating per ASHRAE Test Standard 52.2-2007, delivering 30 to 35% efficiency with an initial resistance range of 0.14 to 0.34 inches WG and a final resistance of 1 inch WG. Rated to 200 degrees F, it is suitable for demanding airstream conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 102-042-199 is well suited for a wide range of HVAC filtration applications including air handling units, rooftop units, and central forced-air systems in light commercial and residential settings. It is engineered as an upgrade over standard MERV 6 and MERV 7 pleated filters and disposable fiberglass media. The extended surface design increases media area for improved dust holding capacity and longer service intervals compared to standard-depth pleated panels. This filter is manufactured domestically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMERV 8 and MERV-A 8 rated per ASHRAE 52.2-2007 for verified medium-efficiency performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% synthetic media provides high dust holding capacity and low pressure drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial resistance of 0.14 to 0.34 inches WG supports airflow efficiency across the service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeverage board frame construction provides structural rigidity during installation and operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 200 degrees F for use in elevated-temperature airstream applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended surface pleat design delivers higher efficiency than standard single-pass pleated filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade for HVAC systems requiring a 2-inch depth MERV 8 pleated panel filter in standard filter-bank or slide-in frame applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician. Always shut down the air handling unit or furnace and isolate power before removing or installing filter media.
