Nordic Pure 16x25x1M12MiniPleat-6 Merv 12 Air Filter 6 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x25x1M12MiniPleat-6 is a MERV 12 mini pleat air filter sold in a 6-pack, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems including forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning units. The actual size is 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches, fitting openings labeled at the nominal 16x25x1 size. The filter media is a self-supporting synthetic polyester fiber housed in a moisture-resistant two-part beverage board frame. With 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters, the design increases surface area for greater particle capture while maintaining adequate airflow across the system.

This filter suits residential forced-air systems and light commercial air handlers where improved indoor air quality is a priority. It targets lint, household dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, mold spores, smoke particles, virus carriers, and common allergens. It is a practical choice during renovations or home improvement projects when airborne particle loads are elevated. Replacing the filter every 2 to 3 months is recommended under normal conditions, with more frequent changes in high-dust or high-occupancy environments. Licensed HVAC technicians and knowledgeable service professionals typically install or specify this filter type.

Key Features

• MERV 12 rating captures finer particles including smoke, mold spores, and pet dander
• Actual size 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches for accurate fitment in nominal 16x25x1 filter slots
• 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters for increased filtration surface area
• Self-supporting synthetic polyester fiber media maintains shape without added support hardware
• Moisture-resistant two-part beverage board frame resists deformation in humid airstreams
• MERV 12 efficiency is equivalent to MPR 1500 to 1900 in residential filter ratings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial HVAC systems using nominal 16x25x1 air filters. Actual dimensions are 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches. Always measure the existing filter slot before ordering to confirm fit, as nominal and actual sizes differ across HVAC equipment.

Installation Notes

HVAC technicians and qualified service personnel should power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or breaker before servicing the filter compartment. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the system airflow direction before insertion. Nominal filter sizes differ from actual sizes - verify the 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inch actual dimensions against the physical filter slot before installing. Dispose of used filters promptly to prevent re-entrainment of captured particles.
