Nordic Pure 14x14x1PM12C-2 Merv 12 Carbon Air Filter 2 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 14x14x1PM12C-2 is a pleated MERV 12 air filter with an integrated activated carbon layer, sized nominally at 14x14x1 inches with an actual size of 13.75 x 13.75 x 0.75 inches. The dual-layer construction fuses MERV 12 filter media with activated carbon, reducing flow restriction while adding 33 percent more surface area compared to single-layer designs. The carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), while the electrostatically charged pleated media captures airborne particulates. Sold as a 2-pack, these filters are rated MERV 12, equivalent to MPR 1500-1900. They are installed by HVAC technicians or knowledgeable homeowners in residential and light commercial forced-air systems.

These filters are suited for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where both particulate control and odor reduction are priorities. Typical install scenarios include homes with pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers, and spaces undergoing renovation where elevated dust and VOC loads are present. The 14x14x1 nominal size fits standard filter slots in furnaces and air handlers that accept this common dimension. Filter media is antimicrobial and hypoallergenic, making it appropriate for environments where occupant air quality is a concern. Manufacturer guidance recommends replacement every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor and outdoor conditions.

• Activated carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and VOCs while maintaining airflow efficiency
• Permanently electrostatically charged media acts as a particle magnet for improved capture efficiency
• Antimicrobial, hypoallergenic filter media inhibits growth of bacteria and mold on the filter surface

• Made in the USA; MERV 12 rating equivalent to MPR 1500-1900

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial forced-air furnace and air handler systems that accept a 14x14x1 nominal filter size. Actual filter dimensions are 13.75 x 13.75 x 0.75 inches; measure the existing filter slot before ordering to confirm fit.

Installation Notes

Air filters in this size class are installed by HVAC technicians or qualified homeowners. Before replacing the filter, set the thermostat to off to prevent the air handler from drawing in an unseated filter during changeover. Confirm airflow direction by matching the arrow printed on the filter frame to the direction of airflow toward the blower. Replace every 30 to 90 days under normal conditions, or more frequently during high-dust events such as renovations.
