The dual-material construction fuses the MERV-rated filtration media with a carbon layer, delivering 33 percent more surface area compared to standard pleated designs. This combination captures airborne particulates while the activated carbon adsorbs odorous gases, vapors, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The filter uses permanently electrostatically charged media that acts as a magnet to attract and hold dust and allergens. Licensed HVAC technicians and property maintenance professionals install these filters in residential and light commercial forced-air heating and cooling systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis filter is designed for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where both particulate control and odor reduction are required. Typical installations include gas furnaces, heat pumps, and central air conditioning systems using a 1-inch filter slot. It is well suited for households with pets, smokers, or occupants with allergies or respiratory sensitivities. The MERV 12 rating makes it effective against fine dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, dust mites, lint, smoke particles, virus carriers, and bacteria. It performs comparably to filters rated MPR 1500 to 1900.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMERV 12 rated filtration captures fine particulates including mold spores, pet dander, pollen, and smoke particles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eActivated carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases, VOCs, and vapors without significantly restricting airflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePermanently electrostatically charged media attracts and holds dust like a magnet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial, hypoallergenic filter media inhibits bacterial and mold growth on the filter surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with metal mesh support grid bonded to the pleats\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 for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems using a 1-inch filter slot with a nominal size of 18x20x1. The actual filter dimensions are 17.5 inches x 19.5 inches x 0.75 inches. Verify the actual slot dimensions before installation, as nominal and actual filter sizes differ across equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified maintenance professional. Always power down the HVAC system at the thermostat and disconnect power before replacing the filter. Insert the filter with the airflow arrow pointing toward the blower, not toward the return air duct. Nordic Pure recommends replacing this filter every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor air quality conditions, occupancy, and system runtime.\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: 18x20x1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.5 x 19.5 x 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\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\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\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: 18x20x1PM12C-3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORDIC PURE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52093563797810,"sku":"18x20x1PM12C-3","price":48.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1240cd0bfe55fd43bea14349acc99fc7_bd187b6b-709f-4e0a-b3ba-4ce31948dfa5.jpg?v=1790064638","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nordic-pure-18x20x1pm12c-3-merv-12-carbon-air-filter-3-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
