Nordic Pure 12x20x1M13MiniPleat-6 Merv 13 Mini Pleat Filter 6pk

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 12x20x1M13MiniPleat-6 is a MERV 13 rated Tru Mini Pleat air filter sold in a six-pack, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Each filter carries a nominal size of 12x20x1 inches with an actual size of 11.5x19.5x0.75 inches. The media is self-supporting synthetic polyester fiber housed in a two-part, moisture-resistant beverage board frame. With 2.5 times more pleats than a standard filter, the increased surface area captures finer particles including smoke, bacteria, mold spores, and allergens while maintaining acceptable system airflow. HVAC technicians and facility maintenance staff install these as a direct drop-in replacement on standard filter-change intervals.

These filters are suited for residential gas and electric forced-air furnaces, central air conditioning systems, and light commercial air handlers where MERV 13 filtration is specified. Typical applications include occupied homes, rental properties, offices, and spaces undergoing renovation where fine particulate and allergen control is a priority. Nordic Pure recommends replacing the filter every 2 to 3 months depending on occupancy, pet presence, and local air quality conditions. The six-pack quantity supports a full-year maintenance schedule on a standard replacement cycle.

Key Features

• MERV 13 rating captures bacteria, smoke particles, fine dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, dust mites, and virus carriers
• Actual size 11.5x19.5x0.75 inches for precise fit in nominally sized 12x20x1 slots
• 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters increases particle capture surface area without severely restricting airflow
• Self-supporting synthetic polyester fiber media requires no internal wire backing
• Moisture-resistant two-part beverage board frame maintains structural integrity in high-humidity air streams
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial forced-air systems requiring a nominally sized 12x20x1 inch filter slot. Always verify the actual filter opening dimensions against the actual size of 11.5x19.5x0.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual sizes differ.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Power down or set the thermostat to the off position before opening the filter cabinet to prevent unfiltered air from being drawn through the system during changeout. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with system airflow toward the blower. Dispose of the used filter in a sealed bag to contain captured particulates.
