Nordic Pure 18x20x1M16-6 Merv 16 Air Filter 6-pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 18x20x1M16-6 is a MERV 16 pleated air filter sold in a 6-pack, designed for residential and commercial HVAC systems where high-efficiency particulate filtration is required. With an actual size of 17.75 x 19.75 x 0.75 inches, the filter fits standard 18x20x1 filter slots. The pleated filtration media offers increased surface area compared to standard-efficiency filters, capturing fine particles such as smoke, bacteria, mold spores, pet allergens, and ultrafine pollutants while maintaining low airflow resistance. A reinforced 2-part frame resists bending and bowing during operation and handling. Designed for installation by licensed HVAC technicians or experienced service professionals.

This filter is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where indoor air quality demands are high, including homes with allergy or asthma concerns, medical offices, or spaces sensitive to airborne contaminants. The 18x20x1 nominal size is a common fit for forced-air furnace and air handler return-air filter slots. Nordic Pure recommends replacing 1-inch filters every 30 to 90 days depending on environmental conditions and air quality requirements. The 6-pack format supports consistent scheduled replacement without repeat ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or breaker before removing the old filter and installing the new one. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of air movement toward the blower. Inspect the filter housing for gaps or bypasses that could reduce filtration effectiveness, and follow local mechanical codes where applicable.
