Nordic Pure 16x20x1M13-4 Merv 13 Air Filter 4 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x20x1M13-4 is a pleated MERV 13 air filter sold in a 4-pack, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems including forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning units. Each filter measures a nominal 16x20x1 inches with an actual size of 15.5 x 19.5 x 0.75 inches. The electrostatically charged pleated media captures lint, household dust, pollen, smoke particles, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, virus carriers, and smog. The heavy-duty, moisture-resistant beverage board frame maintains structural integrity in standard HVAC airstreams. MERV 13 efficiency is the rating established by ASHRAE and is the industry benchmark for high-efficiency residential filtration.

These filters suit residential homes, apartments, and light commercial spaces served by standard 1-inch filter-slot air handlers and furnaces. They are particularly well suited for households with pets or occupants who have moderate to severe allergies or asthma. MERV 13 is comparable to MPR 2200-2400 and FPR 10 ratings used by other manufacturers, making this filter a direct equivalent when replacing filters rated on those scales. General service interval is every 1 to 3 months, though high-dust or high-dander environments may require more frequent replacement.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial HVAC systems requiring a 1-inch pleated air filter with a nominal size of 16x20x1 inches. Always verify the actual slot dimensions against the actual filter size of 15.5 x 19.5 x 0.75 inches before installation.

Installation Notes

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