Nordic Pure 14x16x1CustomM12+C-6 Merv 12 Plus Carbon Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 14x16x1CustomM12+C-6 is a custom-cut, pleated carbon air filter rated MERV 12, sold in a 6-pack. It is designed for residential and light-commercial HVAC systems, including forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning units. The filter combines a high-efficiency pleated media with an activated carbon layer to capture fine particulate and reduce airborne odors. MERV 12 filtration captures over 90% of particles in the 3-10 micron range and 80%-90% in the 1-3 micron range. The actual dimensions are 13.75 x 15.75 x 0.75 inches, which is standard for a nominal 14 x 16 x 1 inch filter slot. This filter is custom-made to order and is non-returnable. HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners install this filter as part of routine system maintenance.

This filter suits residential forced-air systems where a standard nominal 14 x 16 x 1 inch filter is specified. The activated carbon layer makes it well suited for environments with cooking odors, pet odors, smoke, or VOC concerns in addition to typical particulate loads. Nordic Pure constructs custom sizes by cutting down or combining standard filter frames, and may use tape in the assembly depending on the dimensions ordered. For 1-inch thick filters, Nordic Pure recommends a replacement interval of every 30-90 days depending on local air quality and system runtime.

Compatibility

Custom-made to fit HVAC systems and furnaces requiring a nominal 14 x 16 x 1 inch filter. Verify the actual opening size with a tape measure before ordering; the actual filter dimensions are 13.75 x 15.75 x 0.75 inches. Custom sizes are not eligible for return, so accurate measurement is required prior to purchase.

Installation Notes

Filter installation and replacement is typically performed by HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Always power down the furnace or air handler at the disconnect or thermostat before removing or inserting a filter. Confirm airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow toward the blower. For 1-inch filters in moderate-to-high-use environments, inspect the filter every 30 days and replace within 30-90 days as conditions dictate.
