Nordic Pure 16x25x3ABPM10C-3 Merv 10 Air Filter 3 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x25x3ABPM10C-3 is a MERV 10 pleated plus carbon air filter sold in a 3-pack, designed as a direct replacement for Trion Air Bear Cub filters requiring an actual 3-inch depth. The filter media fuses a MERV-rated pleated layer with an activated carbon layer, providing both particulate capture and odor reduction in a single pass. The dual-layer construction delivers 33 percent more surface area than standard single-layer pleated media while reducing flow restriction. Nominal size is 16x25x3 inches with actual dimensions of 15.81 x 24.31 x 3 inches. Licensed HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners install this filter in residential forced-air systems for high-efficiency filtration and VOC control.

This filter suits residential and light commercial forced-air heating and cooling systems that accept a 3-inch depth filter. It is specifically designed to replace Trion Air Bear Cub filters and any system requiring an actual 3-inch depth. The MERV 10 rating makes it appropriate for environments with elevated particulate concerns such as homes with pets, smokers, or occupants sensitive to allergens. The activated carbon layer targets odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that standard MERV-rated media alone does not address. Replacement is recommended every 3 to 6 months depending on environmental conditions.

• Activated carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and VOCs for fresher air without sacrificing airflow
• Dual-layer fused media provides 33 percent more surface area compared to standard single-layer pleated filters
• Hypoallergenic, antimicrobial, and electrostatic filter media inhibits bacterial and mold growth on the media surface
• Heavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with foam tape sealing strips on two sides and a bonded metal mesh support grid
• Made in the USA; MERV 10 rating is equivalent to MPR 900-1000

Installation Notes

Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or thermostat before replacing the filter. Confirm the actual slot dimensions in the filter housing match the actual filter size of 15.81 x 24.31 x 3 inches, not just the nominal size, before installation. Note the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame and orient accordingly. Change the filter every 3 to 6 months or more frequently in high-dust or high-odor environments.
