Nordic Pure 16x25x5ABPM10C-1 Merv 10 Carbon Air Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x25x5ABPM10C-1 is a MERV 10 pleated plus carbon replacement air filter designed for use in forced-air heating and cooling systems that accept 16x25x5 Air Bear-style filter housings. The filter uses a dual-layer media construction in which the MERV 10 filtration layer is fused with an activated carbon layer, reducing flow restriction while adding odor-control capability. The actual dimensions are 15.63 x 24.13 x 4.88 inches, making it a direct fit for Air Bear filter cabinets that require a 4 7/8-inch depth. HVAC technicians and air-quality professionals specify this filter for residential and light-commercial applications where both particulate capture and volatile organic compound (VOC) reduction are required.

This filter is suited for residential homes, apartments, and light-commercial spaces running central forced-air systems equipped with deep-media Air Bear filter housings. The nominal 16x25x5 Air Bear form factor is common in single-family residential installations. Each filter ships as a single unit. The carbon layer actively adsorbs odorous gases and vapors, making this filter a preferred choice in homes with pets, cooking odors, or renovation activity. It is installed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified service professionals during routine maintenance or system servicing intervals.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for Trion Air Bear filter housings requiring a nominal 16x25x5 filter with a 4 7/8-inch actual depth. Actual dimensions are 15.63 x 24.13 x 4.88 inches. Verify the actual depth of your existing filter before ordering, as nominal 5-inch filter housings vary by manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Filter replacement is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified service professional. Always shut down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or thermostat before opening the filter cabinet. Confirm airflow direction marked on the filter frame aligns with system airflow before closing the cabinet door. Nordic Pure recommends replacing this filter every 3 to 6 months under normal operating conditions, or more frequently during periods of heavy dust, renovation, or high pollen load.
