Nordic Pure 17x22x1CustomM12+C-6 Merv 12 Carbon Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 17x22x1CustomM12+C-6 is a custom-cut, electrostatically charged pleated air filter rated MERV 12 with activated carbon media. It is designed for residential and light-commercial forced-air HVAC systems, including central air conditioners and gas or electric furnaces. The filter captures over 90% of airborne particles between 3 and 10 microns and 80% to 90% of particles between 1 and 3 microns, while the carbon layer helps reduce common household odors. Licensed HVAC technicians and knowledgeable DIYers install this filter as a scheduled maintenance replacement. The nominal size is 17x22x1 with an actual size of 16.5 x 21.5 x 0.75 inches.

This filter is suited for residential homes and small commercial spaces where indoor air quality improvement is a priority. It targets lint, household dust, pollen, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, smoke particles, bacteria, and viruses. The activated carbon layer adds odor-reduction capability beyond what a standard pleated filter provides. Because this is a custom-fabricated size, it is built to the exact nominal dimensions ordered and may feature a reinforced two-part frame constructed from cut-down or combined standard filter frames. It ships in a pack of six, supporting a multi-month supply of routine filter changes.

Compatibility

Designed as a custom OEM-style replacement for residential and light-commercial forced-air furnace and air conditioning systems that accept a 17x22x1 nominal filter size. Verify the actual filter slot dimensions before ordering, as this custom size is not eligible for returns.

Installation Notes

Filter replacement is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or a knowledgeable building owner during routine maintenance. Before replacing the filter, set the thermostat to off and disable system power at the disconnect or breaker to prevent the blower from pulling the filter into the air handler during changeout. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Nordic Pure recommends replacing this filter every 30 to 90 days depending on environmental conditions, occupancy, and the presence of pets or allergens.
