Nordic Pure 16x26x1ExactCustomM14-6 Merv 14 Filter 6 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 16x26x1ExactCustomM14-6 is a custom-cut, MERV 14 rated pleated air filter designed for residential and commercial HVAC systems, including forced-air furnaces and central air conditioners. Each filter measures an actual 16 x 26 x 0.75 inches and ships in a pack of six. The electrostatically charged filter media captures over 90% of airborne particles between 1 and 10 microns, and 75% to 95% of particles between 0.3 and 1 microns. This includes lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, smoke, bacteria, and virus carriers. The heavy-duty, moisture-resistant beverage board frame is built for durability in demanding filtration environments.

This filter is suited for residential homes and light commercial spaces where indoor air quality is a priority. It is especially effective in newer, high-efficiency HVAC systems designed to handle MERV 14 filtration or higher. Because MERV 14 filters impose greater airflow restriction than lower-rated filters, the HVAC system must be rated to support this level of filtration. Common applications include whole-home air handlers, gas furnace return-air systems, and central AC units in allergy-sensitive or pet-occupied environments. Filter replacement every one to three months is recommended, with more frequent changes for households with pets or allergy sufferers.

Compatibility

Designed as a custom exact-size replacement filter for HVAC systems requiring a 16 x 26 x 1 nominal size air filter. Suitable for high-efficiency residential and commercial forced-air systems rated to handle MERV 14 filtration or higher, including systems that use HEPA-grade filtration.

Installation Notes

HVAC technicians and qualified installers should power down the air handler or furnace before replacing the filter. Confirm the system is rated for MERV 14 filtration prior to installation, as high-efficiency filters increase static pressure and can restrict airflow in systems not designed for this rating. Measure the existing filter opening to verify the exact dimensions match before installing a custom-cut size. Follow local mechanical codes and the equipment manufacturer guidelines for filter replacement intervals.
