Nordic Pure 14x30x1PCP-4 Carbon Pleated Filter Merv 8 4 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 14x30x1PCP-4 is a pure carbon pleated air filter rated MERV 8, sold in a 4-pack, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. The filter media combines a non-woven polyester base with activated carbon derived from charcoal and coconut shells. This construction captures large airborne particles while simultaneously absorbing odors and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at the molecular level. The heavy-duty beverage board frame is moisture resistant, and a metal mesh support grid bonds to the pleats for structural integrity. HVAC technicians and homeowners install this filter in standard 1-inch filter slots.

This filter is suited for residential applications including homes and apartments where pet odors, cooking smells, smoke, or chemical off-gassing from cleaning products are concerns. The pleated carbon design delivers three times the carbon media surface area compared to flat carbon filters, supporting stronger odor control without restricting airflow significantly. It can also serve as a pre-filter in higher-efficiency commercial HVAC units where pre-filtering reduces odor and particulate load upstream of a primary filtration stage. Replacement is recommended every 30 to 90 days depending on occupancy and air quality conditions.

Key Features

• Activated carbon media derived from charcoal and coconut shells absorbs odors and VOCs on a molecular level
• MERV 8 efficiency captures lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, mold spores, and smoke particles
• Three times the carbon media per filter compared to standard flat carbon designs for improved odor absorption
• Moisture-resistant beverage board frame with metal mesh support grid bonded to pleats
• Media does not support mold growth on the filter itself

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial HVAC systems using standard 1-inch filter slots with a 14x30x1 nominal size. Verify fit using the actual size of 13-15/16 x 29-15/16 x 3/4 inches (13.94 x 29.94 x 0.75 inches) before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is appropriate for HVAC technicians and qualified homeowners servicing standard forced-air furnace or air handler filter racks. Power down the HVAC system at the thermostat or disconnect before changing the filter. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the frame align with the direction of airflow into the unit. Measure the existing filter slot dimensions against the actual filter size before ordering to ensure proper fit.
