Each filter measures 17.75 x 17.75 x 1.75 inches actual size, fitting nominal 18x18x2 inch filter slots. The dual-layer construction fuses a MERV 12-rated filtration media with an activated carbon layer, reducing flow restriction while delivering 33% more surface area compared to standard single-layer pleated designs. The activated carbon captures odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) while the pleated media targets particulates. This listing includes 12 filters per box, totaling 15 pounds shipped weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis filter is suited for residential homes, apartments, and light commercial spaces where both particulate filtration and odor control are priorities. Typical applications include gas furnaces, air handlers, and central air conditioning systems with standard filter racks or return-air grilles sized for a nominal 18x18x2 inch filter. It is especially appropriate for environments with pets, smokers, or occupants with allergy or asthma sensitivities. MERV 12 performance is equivalent to an MPR rating of 1500 to 1900, making it a high-efficiency replacement for standard fiberglass, poly disposable, or washable filter media. Filters should be replaced 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 media fuses MERV 12 pleated filtration with an activated carbon layer for combined particulate and odor control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCaptures lint, household dust, pollen, smoke particles, dust mites, pet dander, virus carriers, mold spores, and allergens\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eActivated carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and VOCs while maintaining low flow restriction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePermanently electrostatically charged media acts as a particulate magnet for improved capture efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial, hypoallergenic filter media inhibits bacterial and mold growth within the filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with bonded metal mesh pleat support grid\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 a direct drop-in replacement for nominal 18x18x2 inch filter slots in residential and light commercial forced-air furnaces, air handlers, and central HVAC systems.

Before replacing the filter, set the thermostat to off and, where required by local practice, shut down power to the air handler at the disconnect. Slide the used filter out and note the airflow direction arrow on the existing filter before inserting the replacement in the same orientation. Follow ASHRAE guidelines and equipment manufacturer recommendations regarding filter replacement intervals, particularly in high-dust environments or during construction activities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pleated Plus Carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMERV Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEquivalent MPR Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1500-1900\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 x 18 x 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.75 x 17.75 x 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Per Box\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Moisture-resistant beverage board with metal mesh pleat support\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\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 848224139768\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: 18x18x2PM12C-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORDIC PURE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972043211058,"sku":"18x18x2PM12C-12","price":144.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d1ea553092aab72f4f6ef5269ac68c0e_0d9049f3-c157-4b0e-9aee-e9eb0a696e8e.jpg?v=1789961761","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nordic-pure-18x18x2pm12c-12-merv-12-carbon-air-filter-12-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
