The filter media fuses a MERV 8-rated pleated layer with an activated carbon layer, reducing flow restriction while adding 33 percent more surface area compared to standard pleated designs. The carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) including pet odors and cooking smells, while the electrostatically charged pleated media captures airborne particulates. This filter is installed in residential and light-commercial HVAC systems by HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners during routine maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 18x18x1PM8C-2 is suited for forced-air heating and cooling systems where both particulate capture and odor control are priorities. Typical applications include residential homes with pets, cooking odors, or occupants sensitive to airborne allergens. The filter captures lint, household dust, pollen, dust mites, mold spores, pet dander, smoke particles, bacteria, and other contaminants with each pass through the air handler or furnace. NORDIC PURE rates this filter as equivalent to the MPR 800 classification used by some other filter manufacturers. The antimicrobial filter media resists bacterial and mold growth within the media itself. Replacement is recommended every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor and outdoor air quality conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-layer construction fuses MERV 8 pleated media with an activated carbon layer for combined particulate and odor control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eElectrostatically charged media acts as a passive magnet for airborne dust and particulates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial and hypoallergenic filter media resists bacterial and mold growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with internal metal mesh support grid bonded to pleats\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEquivalent to MPR 800 rated filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement filter for residential and light-commercial forced-air furnace, air handler, and HVAC systems that accept a 18x18x1 nominal filter size. Actual dimensions are 17.75 x 17.75 x 0.75 inches; verify the filter slot dimensions before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower down or set the thermostat to off before removing the existing filter to prevent unfiltered air from circulating through the system. Note the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame and orient it so the arrow points toward the blower or air handler, not toward the return duct. HVAC technicians should confirm the actual filter slot dimensions match the 17.75 x 17.75 x 0.75 inch actual size before installation, as nominal sizes vary by manufacturer. Replace the filter every 30 to 90 days or more frequently in high-dust or high-occupancy environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MERV 8 Pleated Plus Carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMERV Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMPR Equivalent\u003c\/strong\u003e: 800\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 x 18 x 1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.75 x 17.75 x 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Moisture-resistant beverage board with metal mesh support grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Media\u003c\/strong\u003e: Electrostatically charged, antimicrobial, hypoallergenic pleated media with activated carbon layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 848224139706\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORDIC PURE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18x18x1PM8C-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORDIC PURE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51968398164274,"sku":"18x18x1PM8C-2","price":36.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bf7b6bcfe991b48558744d0e9b94285e.jpg?v=1789951639","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nordic-pure-18x18x1pm8c-2-merv-8-carbon-air-filter-2-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
