Nordic Pure 12x18x1M13+C-2 Merv 13 Plus Carbon Filter 2PK

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 12x18x1M13+C-2 is a MERV 13 pleated air filter with an integrated activated carbon layer, sold in a 2-pack for residential and light-commercial HVAC systems. The electrostatically charged synthetic media captures fine airborne particulates down to the MERV 13 threshold, while the infused activated charcoal panel adsorbs odorous gases, vapors, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The moisture-resistant beverage board frame and internal metal mesh support grid maintain structural integrity across the full service life. At a nominal size of 12x18x1 and an actual size of 11.5 x 17.5 x 0.75 inches, this filter installs in standard furnace and air handler filter slots sized for that nominal dimension.

This filter is suited for residential furnaces, central air conditioning systems, and air handlers where both particulate control and odor reduction are priorities. Typical applications include homes with pets, smokers, or occupants sensitive to allergens such as pollen, mold spores, and dust mite debris. The dual-layer construction makes it a practical choice when a single MERV 13 filter alone is insufficient for odor management. NORDIC PURE rates this filter as equivalent to filters carrying an MPR rating of 2200-2400, placing it in the high-performance category for residential filtration. Licensed HVAC technicians and experienced homeowners alike install this filter as a direct drop-in replacement during routine maintenance intervals.

Compatibility

Designed as a drop-in replacement for residential and light-commercial furnace and air handler filter slots requiring a 12x18x1 nominal filter size. Actual installed dimensions are 11.5 x 17.5 x 0.75 inches. Measure the existing filter slot before ordering to confirm fit, as nominal and actual sizes differ across manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed HVAC technician or a qualified homeowner. Power down the furnace or air handler at the disconnect or thermostat before removing the old filter. Verify airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow through the system before seating the filter. NORDIC PURE recommends replacing this filter every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor air quality conditions, occupancy, and ongoing construction or renovation activity nearby.
