Nordic Pure 12x16x1M8-2 Pleated Merv 8 Air Filter 2 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 12x16x1M8-2 is a pleated MERV 8 air filter sold in a 2-pack for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Rated at MERV 8, equivalent to MPR 800, this filter captures lint, dust, pollen, bacteria, pet dander, dust mites, mold spores, and other airborne contaminants as air passes through the media. The electrostatically charged, hypoallergenic, antimicrobial media improves particle capture compared to standard fiberglass filters. The nominal size is 12x16x1 inches with an actual size of 11.5 x 15.5 x 0.75 inches. Licensed HVAC technicians and service professionals install these filters in forced-air furnaces and air conditioning systems as part of routine preventive maintenance.

These filters are suited for residential homes and commercial office environments where indoor air quality and equipment protection are priorities. The MERV 8 rating makes them a practical choice for households with pets, allergy sufferers, or environments with elevated dust and particulate levels. Regular replacement every one to three months is typical, with more frequent changes recommended in high-traffic or pet-occupied spaces. The moisture-resistant beverage board frame holds its shape in high-humidity conditions common to many HVAC installations.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel. Always shut down the furnace or air handler at the thermostat and disconnect power at the disconnect or breaker before removing the existing filter. Note the airflow direction arrow on the filter frame and orient the replacement filter accordingly. Measure the actual filter cabinet opening rather than relying solely on nominal size to confirm proper fit before purchase.
