Nordic Pure 12x16x1M13+C-12 Merv 13 Plus Carbon Filter 12pk

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 12x16x1M13+C-12 is a pleated MERV 13 air filter with an integrated activated carbon layer, sold in a 12-pack. The filter media is electrostatically charged synthetic material that captures fine airborne particulates including dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, smoke particles, and virus carriers. The flat carbon panel is infused with activated charcoal to adsorb odorous gases, vapors, and VOCs that a standard pleated filter cannot address. The nominal size is 12 x 16 x 1 inches with an actual size of 11.5 x 15.5 x 0.75 inches. Licensed HVAC technicians and building maintenance professionals install this filter in forced-air furnace and air handler systems requiring both particulate and odor control.

This filter is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications where superior filtration and odor reduction are both required. Typical use cases include homes with pets, smokers, or occupants sensitive to allergens and airborne contaminants. The MERV 13 rating makes it appropriate for high-efficiency residential systems and commercial environments requiring tighter filtulate control than a MERV 8 or MERV 11 filter provides. It is compatible with standard 1-inch filter slots accepting a 12 x 16 x 1 nominal size filter. Change interval is recommended at every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor and outdoor air quality conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for any forced-air furnace, air handler, or HVAC system accepting a 12 x 16 x 1 nominal size filter with a 1-inch filter slot. Verify the actual filter cavity dimensions against the actual size of 11.5 x 15.5 x 0.75 inches before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Always set the system thermostat to the off position and shut down the air handler or furnace before removing the old filter or inserting a new one. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow in the system. Filters should be inspected regularly and replaced every 30 to 90 days; more frequent changes are recommended during construction, remodeling, or periods of heavy system use.
