Nordic Pure 16x20x5HM14-2 Merv 14 Air Filter 2 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x20x5HM14-2 is a MERV 14 rated pleated air filter designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems that use a deep-media filter housing. Sold as a 2-pack, each filter carries a nominal size of 16x20x5 inches with an actual size of 15.88 x 19.63 x 4.38 inches. The filter media is hypoallergenic, antimicrobial, and electrostatic, capturing airborne dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, smog, dust mite debris, and bacteria on each pass. The heavy-duty beverage board frame is moisture resistant, and a bonded metal mesh support grid reinforces the pleats to maintain airflow geometry under sustained use.

This filter is suited for residential gas furnaces, heat pumps, and central air conditioning systems equipped with deep-media filter cabinets that accept a 4 3/8 inch actual-depth cartridge. It serves as a direct replacement for Honeywell, Lennox, Carrier, and Bryant systems using this housing size. Because nominal and actual dimensions vary by manufacturer, measuring the existing filter or the filter cabinet before ordering is strongly recommended. The MERV 14 efficiency rating is equivalent to an MPR 2800 rating, making it appropriate for households with allergy or respiratory concerns and for light commercial applications requiring higher particulate control.

Always verify the actual dimensions of the existing filter or housing before installation, as nominal sizes vary across manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or breaker before opening the filter cabinet. Confirm airflow direction marked on the filter frame aligns with system airflow before seating the cartridge. Nordic Pure recommends replacing this filter every 3 to 6 months, though actual service life varies with indoor air quality conditions and system runtime.
