The filter uses electrostatically charged synthetic media to capture airborne particulates on each pass through the system. It targets contaminants in the 1.0-10.0 micron range, capturing more than 90% of 3.0-10.0 micron particles and up to 90% of 1.0-3.0 micron particles. The nominal size is 16x20x4 with an actual size of 15.5 x 19.5 x 3.63 inches. The frame is a moisture-resistant beverage board construction with a bonded metal mesh support grid to maintain pleat integrity under airflow. Licensed HVAC technicians and qualified service professionals handle installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis filter fits standard 4-inch filter slots in residential gas furnaces, heat pumps, and split-system air handlers where a 16x20x4 nominal filter is specified. It is rated MERV 12, which is equivalent to an MPR rating of 1500-1900. The electrostatic media removes lint, household dust, pollen, dust mites, pet dander, smoke particles, virus carriers, bacteria, mold spores, and allergens. Nordic Pure recommends replacing the filter every 3-6 months depending on indoor and outdoor conditions. Note: if the existing filter in a Honeywell or Lennox unit has an actual depth of 4.375 inches rather than 3.63 inches, the correct replacement is the 16x20x5 model, not this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMERV 12 rating captures more than 90% of 3.0-10.0 micron particles and up to 90% of 1.0-3.0 micron particles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eElectrostatically charged, hypoallergenic, antimicrobial synthetic filter media\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with bonded metal mesh pleat support\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEquivalent to MPR 1500-1900 rated filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a 2-pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for residential and light-commercial forced-air systems requiring a 16x20x4 nominal filter with an actual depth of 3.63 inches.

Confirm the actual slot dimensions match the actual filter size of 15.5 x 19.5 x 3.63 inches before installing. Insert the filter with the airflow arrow pointing toward the blower. Replace every 3-6 months or more frequently in high-dust or high-occupancy environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: MERV 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEquivalent MPR Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1500-1900\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 x 20 x 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15.5 x 19.5 x 3.63 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Moisture-resistant beverage board with metal mesh support grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Media\u003c\/strong\u003e: Electrostatically charged synthetic, hypoallergenic, antimicrobial\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORDIC PURE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16x20x4M12-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORDIC PURE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971183804722,"sku":"16x20x4M12-2","price":36.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/09f00d8906905968eb6130563b78a5f1_88bd3721-9e35-41c3-aa7c-e1cf22bce70d.jpg?v=1789954316","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nordic-pure-16x20x4m12-2-pleated-air-filter-merv-12","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
