Nordic Pure 16x24x1M8MiniPleat-12 Merv 8 Mini Pleat Filter 12pk

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x24x1M8MiniPleat-12 is a MERV 8 rated mini pleat air filter sold in a box of 12 and sized for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. The filter carries a nominal size of 16x24x1 with an actual size of 15.38 x 23.38 x 0.75 inches. It uses a self-supporting polyester media that resists mold growth and attracts airborne particles without significantly restricting airflow. The two-part, moisture-resistant beverage board frame adds structural rigidity. With 2.5 times more pleats than standard flat-panel filters, surface area is increased substantially, which improves particle capture efficiency and extends service life.

This filter is suited for forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning systems in residential homes and light commercial buildings. It targets common airborne contaminants including lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and mold spores. HVAC technicians and facilities maintenance personnel typically install this filter as part of routine preventive maintenance. Based on the environment, replacement every 2 to 3 months is recommended to sustain filtration performance and protect downstream HVAC components.

Key Features

• Actual size of 15.38 x 23.38 x 0.75 inches ensures proper fit in nominal 16x24x1 filter slots
• Moisture-resistant beverage board frame resists warping and frame failure in humid conditions
• Self-supporting polyester media maintains pleat geometry and resists mold growth
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial forced-air furnace and air handler systems that accept a nominal 16x24x1 filter. Always verify the actual filter slot dimensions against the actual size of 15.38 x 23.38 x 0.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual sizes differ.

Installation Notes

Power down or set the thermostat to the off position before replacing the filter to prevent unfiltered air from being drawn through the system during the swap. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Nominal filter sizes do not equal actual dimensions, so measure the existing filter or filter slot before ordering. Dispose of used filters in a sealed bag to contain captured particulates.
