Nordic Pure 18x20x2M8-3 Pleated Air Filter Merv 8 3 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 18x20x2M8-3 is a pleated MERV 8 air filter sold in a 3-pack, designed for use in residential and light commercial HVAC systems including central air conditioners and gas or electric furnaces. Each filter measures 17.5 x 19.5 x 1.75 inches actual size with a nominal size of 18x20x2 inches. The electrostatically charged, hypoallergenic filter media captures lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, mold spores, bacteria, and other airborne contaminants. The heavy-duty, moisture-resistant beverage board frame maintains structural integrity in demanding HVAC environments. The media is antimicrobial and will not promote bacterial or mold growth on the filter surface.

This filter is suited for residential homes and light commercial spaces where regular particulate control is required. It is a practical choice for households with pets or occupants with allergies who need consistent air quality management. NORDIC PURE rates this filter at MERV 8, which is equivalent to MPR 800 on competing rating scales. The filter is manufactured in the USA and meets ASHRAE filtration efficiency standards. Recommended replacement interval is every 1 to 3 months, with more frequent changes advised in high-dust or high-allergen environments such as those with pets or during renovation activity.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement filter for residential and light commercial HVAC systems requiring a nominal 18x20x2 inch filter slot. Always verify the actual filter cavity dimensions against the actual size of 17.5 x 19.5 x 1.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual sizes differ.

Installation Notes

Air filter replacement is a routine maintenance task typically performed by HVAC technicians or qualified facility maintenance staff, though experienced homeowners commonly perform this service. Power down the HVAC system at the thermostat before removing the old filter to prevent unfiltered air from circulating through the equipment. Note the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame and install the new filter with the arrow pointing toward the blower. Dispose of the used filter in a sealed bag to contain captured particulates.
