Nordic Pure 12x18x1M10MiniPleat-6 Merv 10 Mini Pleat Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 12x18x1M10MiniPleat-6 is a MERV 10 mini pleat air filter sold in a pack of six, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Each filter carries an actual size of 11.5 x 17.5 x 0.75 inches against a nominal size of 12 x 18 x 1 inches. The polyester filter media is self-supporting and moisture-resistant, using 2.5 times more pleats than a standard filter to increase surface area and capture efficiency. The heavy-duty two-part beverage board frame resists moisture and holds its shape through the full service cycle. Licensed HVAC technicians and experienced DIYers install these filters in forced-air furnace and air handler applications.

These filters are suited for residential forced-air systems and light commercial HVAC applications where improved particulate control is needed without significantly restricting airflow. The MERV 10 rating makes them effective against lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and mold spores. The mini pleat construction maintains adequate airflow even at higher filtration efficiency. Nordic Pure recommends replacing the filter every two to three months depending on environmental conditions, with more frequent changes advised during renovation activity or in high-dust environments.

Key Features

• MERV 10 filtration rating, equivalent to MPR 800-1000, captures common airborne particulates including pollen, pet dander, and mold spores
• 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters, increasing media surface area for higher particle capture without excessive airflow restriction
• Actual size 11.5 x 17.5 x 0.75 inches for precise fitment in slots sized for a 12 x 18 x 1 nominal filter
• Self-supporting polyester media resists mold growth and maintains structural integrity throughout the filter life
• Heavy-duty two-part moisture-resistant beverage board frame
• Manufactured in the USA; sold in a box of six filters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial forced-air furnace and air handler systems that accept a nominal 12 x 18 x 1 inch filter. Always verify the actual filter slot dimensions against the actual size of 11.5 x 17.5 x 0.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual sizes differ.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect before removing the old filter and installing the new one. Confirm airflow direction matches the arrow printed on the filter frame before securing the service panel. Follow local mechanical codes and the equipment manufacturer's maintenance schedule for filter replacement intervals.
