Nordic Pure 16x25x1M16-4 Pleated Air Filter Merv 16

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x25x1M16-4 is a MERV 16 pleated air filter designed for residential and commercial HVAC systems where high-efficiency particulate capture is required. Rated at MERV 16, this filter captures smoke, bacteria, mold spores, pet allergens, and ultrafine pollutants. The actual dimensions are 15.5 inches by 24.5 inches by 0.75 inches, fitting standard 16x25x1 filter slots. It ships in a 4-pack. A reinforced 2-part frame resists bending and bowing during the service interval. Licensed HVAC technicians and facilities maintenance professionals typically specify MERV 16 filtration where indoor air quality standards exceed typical residential requirements.

This filter is suited for residential air handlers, furnaces, and light commercial HVAC equipment that accept a nominal 16x25x1 filter. Environments with high allergen loads, occupants with respiratory sensitivities, or spaces requiring enhanced particulate control are typical application sites. The increased filtration media surface area supports extended filter life while keeping static pressure rise manageable for most systems designed to accommodate high-MERV media.

Key Features

• Actual size 15.5 inches by 24.5 inches by 0.75 inches for precise fit in nominal 16x25x1 housings
• Increased filtration media surface area supports low airflow resistance relative to efficiency level
• Reinforced 2-part frame resists bending, bowing, and wear over the service interval
• Sold as a 4-pack for consistent replacement scheduling
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial HVAC systems requiring a nominal 16x25x1 filter slot with support for high-MERV pleated media.

Installation Notes

HVAC technicians and qualified service professionals should power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect before servicing the filter compartment. Confirm the airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with system airflow before closing the cabinet. Nordic Pure recommends replacing 1-inch air filters every 30 to 90 days depending on environment and air quality conditions. High-MERV filters increase system static pressure; verify the installed air handler or blower is rated to operate within acceptable external static pressure limits before upgrading filter efficiency.
